I don’t really like blogging because we have to do it so much.  I run out of things to write about because I really don’t have that many thoughts.  I’m not really looking forward to going to work tonight, but it is that last day before I have the weekend off.  I am not really sure what I am going to do this weekend but hopefully I will find a party to go to.  I got my tax refunds back the other day and received $2,000 dollars.  So naturally I had to spend some of it right away.  I decided to go and buy a laptop; it was a Dell Inspiron 1501.  It is pretty nice but I regret spending the amount of money that I did.  School is going pretty well for me.  I am finding myself becoming burried in the amount of algebra homework that I have.  I am excited to graduate and get a real job that pays well.  I can’t believe that in a couple years I will have to get a real job.  I haven’t decided if I am going to stay around here or not.  I would like to move out west; preferably California.  Going down south would be nice to.  If I go down south I would definatly go somewhere in Florida.  The only drawback on Florida is all the hurricanes.  San Diego or Sacremento sounds nice.  Well I am now out of thoughts so I’ll leave it at this.

In this blog I decided to blog about who I am.  My full Name is Michael Steven Abrahamzon.  I am 19 years old, and was born on May 7th, 1987.  My family consists of my mother, father, sister, and my neice.  My mom and dad are both 50 years old.  My sister is 25 and her daughter is 1 1/2 years old.  I currently live in a small town called South Range.  It is located about 10 from Superior, Wisconsin.  I basically revolve my life around sports.  There is no better day than sitting at home watching a football game with some buddies.  Some other things that I enjoy are playing the occasional video game, watching heroes, reading a Harry Potter book, watching seinfeld and friends over and over again, and partying every single weekend.  I am currently going to school part time and working full time, but plan to go to school full time next semester.  Well that is pretty much who I am.

In the Ugly Truth About Beauty I think the author makes very valid points.   I believe he is correct in saying that women care about how they look more than men do.  Reading this article made me think about a comic strip I saw a couple months ago.  In the comic strip there was a obese man and a skinny, attractice woman.  The man and woman were both looking into two different mirrors.  When the obese man looked into the mirror he saw a man that was in shape and handsome.  When the skinny, attractice woman looked into the mirror she saw an obese woman.  I believe the author is stating the exact same concept in this article. I do however believe that some men care about their appearance(probably a very small percent of the male population).  From the mens point of view I believe the author was correct.  From the womens point of view I don’t know.  I am sure women do care about their appearance more than men but I don’t think that there is anything wrong with that.  The author states that men don’t notice 97% of the beauty efforts made by women.  The author probably is correct in saying that men don’t notice them, but why should women stop doing them just because men dont notice them.  If they feel they look better with their nails done than I feel they should get their nails done.  The more they can do to make themselves feel better about themselves the better, but I feel they should have a high self-esteem.  All in all I believe the other wrote a great article and made some valid points from the men side.  I can also see where he would have trouble understanding how women feel about their appearance and that is where his weakness in this essay is.

I’m not too sure on what to write about so I will write about my past weekend.  This past weekend I did absolutely nothing but hang out with friends and party.  On Saturday I went to a friends house in Superior and hung out.  Later that night we went to a party.  It was a fun night and I had enjoyed myself.  We didn’t get back home until 6 in the morning so needless to say I slept late on Sunday.  When I woke up on Sunday afternoon I watched a couple movies until the Super Bowl started.  I had a lot of money on the game and if Vinniterri had made the field goal before half time I would be up $2000.  I was again partying that night to let of some anger and was up agian till 6 in the morning.  Monday went by in a blur and before I knew my weekend was over.  All in all I had a good, long weekend.
