A forty day journey
As I was sitting here in my common room thinking about what I wanted to write in my blog that wouldn't be totally boring (only slightly), I remembered what season it was! Lent! (that is kind of considered a season, right?) Last night I attended church for Ash Wednesday (going to church more was part of my NEW year's resolution; shout out to Jello!) and Father Charlie said Lent was like a pilgrimage that we were all on for 40 days. He kept emphasizing that we had 40 whole days to do something new, and to be become someone different (well technically we had 39 hours and 4 hours, but we got the point). I thought this was soooo cool. I had never thought about Lent in this way. What's with all these journeys lately? Between English class and church, I am going to be all traveled out and maybe even a bit homesick (HA, that was my sad attempt to me funny...no more, I promise).
Of course I want to become a better person and do something fabulous in well, 38 days. But doesn't that mean I have to give something up along the way in this journey? Isn't that what Lent is all about? I feel completely selfish because I cannot think of even one to give up. My mom suggested I give up gum, but gum is like my cigarette...I chew about a pack a day. Giving up gum is NOT an option. So my roomate suggested I give up tea because I drink about 2 cups a day, but why would I want to give up something that is completely healthy for me? Yeah, silly, I know. Then I got thinking, who says I have to give something up? Why not try that whole being a better person thing...yes, this just might work!
I asked my roomate (the church expert) if I would be able to do something within these 40 days, rather than give something up. I came up with a brilliant idea. I thought why not set a goal for myself. Yes, I am well aware that this sounds selfish, but read a bit more and you will see. I absolutely love doing community service, but lately I have been slacking. In the next 38 days, I would like to complete 20 hours of community service. And you know what's funny, I feel like I am setting a new years resolution all over again..but luckily, this one is only 40 days, not 365! Phewwww...and I decided to give up candy as well..just to inform you all...

The difference between boys and girls--First report, first draft
The difference between girls and guys is not a physical difference. Instead, it has more to do with the characteristics and a certain mind set that each gender carries. In my research, this mind set is connected a lot with the physical aspects of males and the physical aspects of females.
To decipher the real difference between guys and girls, I would have to research and observe more than just the students at St. Johns. However, I wanted to get an idea of what goes on in the heads of my peers here at school. Before I started my research, I had the idea that girls care more about things like looks and weight. This is my first research question I want to answer. My second question asks who is more competitive with their peers when it comes time to the subject of appearance. To help answer my questions, I conducted a survey that was given to 5 females and 5 males. We all here rumors as to why girls care more about looks and why girls are more competitive than guys when it comes to the subject of appearance. In spite of what we may assume, do you think there is really another answer to these questions? This is exactly what I set out to find.
On the question of why do girls care more about things like looks and weight, I discovered in the surveys that guys may care just as much as girls, but they don’t openly admit it as well or as much. For one thing, it isn’t everyday that you read in the tabloids that Brad Pitt has lost a lot of weight or has gotten fat, but on the front cover, you may discover how his wife Angelina is anorexic thin or has gained 35 pounds. In any case, on the survey, when asked if they heavily care about their appearance, all the girls said it depends on where they are going and who will be there. One girl even mentioned she is ok with being late to class as long as she is “properly” dressed and looking good. The guys, on the other hand, were not so concerned. One said he does care about his appearance, but the others said no, it doesn’t matter to me. Why don’t they feel the need to dress to impress?
On the subject of weight, I wanted to see just how these teenagers were dealing with their weight. I wanted to see how many of them ate healthy, or thought they were eating healthy to maintain a certain look. Only one of the girls said she ate healthy, and all the others did no consider themselves healthy eaters. When I read the girls portion of this survey, I was surprised, until I turned to the guy’s surveys. Three out of five of the guys considered themselves healthy eaters, yet when they answered the next question, do you indulge at dinner time, most girls said yes, while a few said they watched portion sizes. It was all of the guys who said yes. Guys said they ate healthy, yet they said they indulged. The girls who indulge said no, I know that’s not healthy…why do guys think it’s healthy to eat that way, but girls do not?
This struck me as funny. I would also like to mention that one of the girls put on her survey that she is concerned with portion size because she is afraid of how people will judge her based on how much she eats. However, she didn’t fail to mention that other people eat more than her. In other words, as long as people eat more than her, she has nothing to worry about. This proves one of my points that girls care more about things like appearance, even when on the subject of food.
One last point I would like to make is about weight. This seems to always be a touchy subject when girls talk about it, but less when guys do. Four out of five of the girls said they would like to weigh less than they do now. One was even concerned that she was getting extremely heavy due to stress. A girl who took the survey emphasized my point and wrote that not many girls want to be gain more weight these days. It’s all about losing weight. Before I have the survey out, I thought I would read that the guys wanted to gain more weight because this is what I have observed in the past. However, only one said he would like to gain about 20 pounds and the others didn’t worry about their weight…so they say.
So the big question still stands: why do girls care more about things like looks and weight? I was not surprised to read the answer on all of these surveys. Every survey mentioned that girls stress more because of what’s in the media. They see things in magazines and on TV that say you have to be skinny. In today’s society, there is a certain “ideal” look and if you don’t have it, then you won’t be the “it” girl. I read in one survey that “Girls definitely stress more because there is a greater pressure on them from society.” Another survey mentioned that “Women are expected to live up to expectations that are unattainable and therefore are more concerned with unachievable goals.” These are pretty powerful statements, and surprisingly, they were quotes from two boys.
Magazines might mention that a female celebrity has gained weight or even that a celebrity has lost too much weight and the critics are mocking her for it. Either way, this is saying that looks matter. You have to look good to the public eye. The pressure is on. When people read this, they assume it’s about them as well, and that the only way to look good is to be perfect. But what is perfect? That is a whole other subject.
Are girls and guys more competitive when it comes time to the subject of appearance? I believe they are both equally competitive in their own ways. Boys may care about different things, but they still care. Guys approach the subject one way and girls go about it another way. That could all be a part of life. I discovered however, perhaps why girls care more about being skinny and why guys care more about being “big.” Most people said the media and I think they may be true. Both girls and guys on this survey said girls worry about those things more, but based on their answers, I think they almost care as much as the girls. A few guys mentioned they don’t talk about other guys weights and appearances but they talk about girls—maybe that’s one reason why girls feel the way they do. It’s weird how that works out. Girls talk about girls and guys talk about girls. As I mentioned before, the competition between same the sex is almost as equal, based on my survey. However, guys are quieter about it. You can tell from their one word answers on the survey compared to the long answers on the girl’s surveys. One girl even mentioned that if guys did openly admit it, they would probably be made fun of. They may not be honest about it, but they probably go through the same thing. They always turned it around to talk about the girls, never themselves. “People stress because they are insecure, and girls stress because guys talk about them. It’s true, we talk about girls appearances.” This is one of the answers I received on the survey.

The results are in!--Survey results for the first report
I decided to elaborate on this journal entry because I believe it is a subject that everyone can relate to, whether young or old! “The difference between boys and girls” is a research topic that is meant to inform all of you just what goes through the minds of teenagers (and possibly even adults) when it comes to things like weight and appearances. I conducted a survey that was made up of nine questions. I gave the survey to five boys and five girls. The survey looked a little something like this:
Survey
English 1000C
Please circle one: male female
1. Does your appearance matter to you? (For example, are you more concerned with getting to class on time or getting to class looking good?)
2. For the most part, would you consider yourself a healthy eater?
3. Do you exercise daily?
4. When you go to Montgoris, do you usually “indulge” or watch your portion size?
-If you do watch portion size, is it because of the people around you? (In other words, are you concerned with people judging you based on what or how much you eat?
5. Are you concerned with your weight? Do you wish you weighed more or less than you do?
6. Do you ever feel like you have to compete with your friends or peers based on looks?
7. Do you and your friends talk about weight and appearances often? (Whether it’s your own or someone else’s)
8. Why do you think people stress over things like weight and appearance?
9. Who do you think stresses out more about weight and looks, boys or girls? Why do you think this is?
Needless to say, I received a variety of answers on this (and I must mention that with some of the irrelevant answers I received from those boys, I could produce a whole other research paper!) However, despite the varied answers, I noticed a big difference between the boy’s answers and the girls. It was pretty much the result I expected. Although, some of the answers suprised me...especially when it came to the girls.
FEMALE:
1. -Yes, I make sure I have enough time to get ready so I’m not late for class
-It doesn’t matter when I’m going to class, but it does if I’m going to a party or club
-Depends where I’m going. To class, I have no one to impress I could care less
-Depends on where I’m going. Here, I don’t have anyone to impress
-It depends on what class. If it’s a class that doesn’t care about attendance, then I’ll spend an extra minute adding mascara
2. -Yes, although on occasion I do splurge
-Nooo!
-Not really, down with the celery sticks
-Not really
-For the most part--I don't really snack in between meals
3. -I try, usually I end up doing 4/7 days
-If walking to class counts
-No, I try 3 times a week; never happens
-Every other day if I have time
-If going up and down the stairs counts
4. -I ask the servers for small portions
-Indulge
-I try to watch what I eat
-Try not to go--food is nasty--If I am hungry I will eat
-I def. watch my portion size
5. -I am more concerned with my shape. Muscle weighs more than fat
-I'm not that concerned, but I wouldn't mind putting on a few pounds
-Yes, I wish I weighed less
-Probably less, not a lot of girls want to weigh more
-I'm extremely concerned with my weight. I am the heaviest I've ever been and it's hard
6. -Sometimes, but I keep it to myself
-Only if they make a big deal about looking good or say stuff about how other people look
-Hell no, I'm fly! We all have out best features
-No
-Ha! Never! That's why I love my friends--we're so completely different that there's no competition
7. -Yes, all the time
-A lot of my friends
-Once in a while, when we go to the gym
-No we talk about liquor. We talk about people when we go to the gym
-Most definitely--what group of girls don't? My friends are always complaining about their weight, but they're a size 2
8. -Hollywood. Everyone in Hollywood is glamorous and thin, and rich. People wonder, who wouldn't want to be them?
-Because everyone makes a big deal about it and it's all over TV and in magazines
-Because of skinny models
-Media, models and famous people are always skinny
-Yes, that's why people put on more pounds
9. -Girls definetly. I think it is genetic in a way. Girls usually want to lose weight, while guys want muscles and build
-Girls it's just the way society is right now. If guys admitted they were concerned about it, they probably be made fun of
-Girls. There is a lot more pressure on them to be "pretty" and weight is put into that picture
-Girls because media emphasizes more on female appearance than male appearance. if a girl is big she is "fat"--if a guy is big he's healthy
-If I knew the answer, life would be perfect
MALE:
1. -I'm more concerned with getting to class
-I don't go to class "on time" so I look good by default
-Sometimes, it depends on my mood
-Class on time
-Yes
2. -Not at all
-Montgoris--hell no
-Yes
-Sure

5. -Not really concerned
-Yes, gain about 20 pounds
-Um, a little bit more, but for the most part, I am content
-I think my weight is fine, but I wouldn't want to gain anymore
-no
6. -Yes
-No, I am me. I don't give a ****
-Not at all, it's insignificant
-Not really. For the most part one cannot change their looks without time and patience. I don't think looking better than someone else is worth my time
-Sometimes
7. -Not about ourselves, but we talk about other people
-Girl's bootys and ***** mostly
-Yes, but not often
-Nope
-No
8. -Because they are insecure
-Girls because guys like big butts
-Because of the pressure from the media on what is "in" and "good"
-Insecurity
-They're worried about what other people think
9. -Girls because there is greater pressure on them from society to be skinny
-Girls. When honestly considered the daily degradation of females in today's culture is utterly appalling. Women are expected to live up to expectations that are unattainable and therefore are more concerned with their unachievable goals
-Girls, because TV, magazines, and other forms of media plaster the "it" girl images everywhere and force girls to feel insecure
-Girls, sorry
-Girls because they feel they have to conform to a certain ideal

Before I get ahead of myself...
I am about to embark on my first real vision quest! That’s right, I am about to begin researching for my very first research paper in English 1000C! I am quite excited to say the least (but a bit nervous as well). This is the first paper I have been told to write by a teacher without first receiving a hundred rules on what to do and what not to do. For the first time ever, I am writing a paper based on a topic that interests me and for once, a teacher trusts me to perform to the best of my ability without setting boundaries. Ah, I feel relieved already!
Now to the important stuff: my research topic. I have decided to write a paper based on my blog entry entitled “The difference between boys and girls.” I am going to ask that you disregard the obvious physical differences and focus on what I am trying to accomplish. I want to inform/teach (and also do a bit of learning myself) people why boys and girls think differently when it comes time to weight and appearance. I myself have an idea (if you read my journal entry you too will know) but I want to “check” myself by finding out what my peers are feeling.
Based on what I have been observing, girls seem to care more about the way they look than guys. I’m sure if you ask anyone, they will tell you that girls care more about looks because they always want to impress people. What are the girl’s take on this answer? That is exactly what I want to learn and share with everyone. Will girls openly admit they care more, or will boys openly admit they just don’t give a damn? Another question of mine is are girls or guys more competitive when it comes time to the subject of appearance? As of right now, my guess is that girls are more competitive. Who knows, maybe these things aren’t true, but that’s my goal for this paper.

I’m sure if you ask anyone, they will tell you that girls care more about looks because they always want to impress people. What are the girl’s take on this answer? That is exactly what I want to learn and share with everyone. Will girls openly admit they care more, or will boys openly admit they just don’t give a damn? Another question of mine is are girls or guys more competitive when it comes time to the subject of appearance? As of right now, my guess is that girls are more competitive. Who knows, maybe these things aren’t true, but that’s my goal for this paper.

"What would you attempt to do if you knew you couldn't fail?"
I don't know about the rest of you, but I don't believe I have ever asked myself this question. It really gives you something to think about!

To support our vision quest theory...
"Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself."
-I don't want to elaborate on this quote as of right now, but I think this quote is a perfect example of our "vision quest."
