The shittiest crappiest worst days that seem to just drag on and on

I think Haley James Scott said it right when she said that "the worst days seem to last the longest." We all know what kind of day I am talking about. Maybe you wake up, do your hair, makeup, wear a nice outfit, only for it to rain and ruin your hair, and than you manage to spill your entire overpriced Starbucks latte all over the outfit, not only ruining the outfit, but also wasting your coffee that you paid 10 dollars for. It only gets worse from there. You have a falling out with a friend, or run into someone from high school that you really just want to punch in the face but you have to put on a fake smile and pretend to be delighted to see them (I talk from experience). Whatever your bad day might be made up, they all, pardon my language, fucking suck.

In my case, I am writing this at 3:30 in the morning, wide awake, when I have to be up a 6:00 to catch a bus at 6:40 to work an 8 hour shift at a packaging company where I will be making shit money to put some fucking candy bar in a box (I need the cash). I can already tell this day is gonna be filled with a shit load of shit being thrown my way and as I write this I am okay with it... 

Seriously, I am okay with that... I had a great day today. I spent the day with one of my best friends, Colleen, and we had ourselves a little One Direction party. We watched A Year in the Making, funny YouTube videos, had a whole bunch of laughs, and for dinner I treated myself to sushi. It was an all around great day. Which brings me to why I am okay with having a bad day. Think of the reasoning behind this "You can't enjoy a sunny day without a few rainy ones." Well the same applies to your good days and bad days. I think because we all have our abundance of bad days it helps us enjoy and appreciate the good days...

So I'm okay with having a bad day every once in a while that seems to drag on and on and on! Because I know that one bad day will be followed by 3 good days... Think about that next time you think you are having the worst day possible...

Cheers,

Um, who am I? :S

Who am I? Good question... My name is Lori Karch. Lori Lynn Karch to be more specific. Most of you probably know me from twitter but known of you really knooow me. You know? Who I am and what makes me tick... 

I am currently 18 years old.. I just had my birthday a week ago so I am fresh 18 year old... I come from good ole Canada!! More specifically Toronto... I am currently in my first year of University at Ryerson. I am working to get my Bachelor's degree in Social Work. After my four years I really hope to move onto to get my Masters but I am just taking it a year at a time and not really worrying about the big picture. I went into Social Work for one specific reason: I wanted to help people. Does that mean I know exactly what I want to do when I finish school... Umm no. I am still young and I have plenty of time to figure it out... 

I live at home with just my mommy. She is my biggest supporter and I am hers. She is the best person I know. I have two older brothers... Steven and Kevin. I wouldn't say we are really close but we don't hate each other... We just lead very different lifestyles if that makes sense... And of course my dad... Umm... Let's just say we aren't close and leave it at that. 

I don't exactly know how to describe myself and my personality.. I usually leave that up to other people's perception of me... I guess if I really had to sum up how I perceive myself, I guess I would say that I am funny, don't know when to stop talking, and um... nice... :S I am so bad at describing myself but I am sure my friends could come up with a trillion things to say about me all about how wonderful I am.. and funny.. One thing I will say about my self is I am so laid back! I rarely get mad! If I am mad at someone I have a reason... a good reason. Not something like "OMG Kelly! She is wearing the same shirt as me... I am not gonna talk to her for the rest of the day!" ... Trust me, I know people like that... You can't make this shit up. Oh and I know I am funny... But only when I am not trying... Sometimes I have no idea I am being funny... So sometimes I try not to try and be funny so therefore it's funny... That didn't make much sense did it... 

I obsess over television... I don't like a show.. I become obsessed. That's the way it has always been since I was in grade 6... First off it was Boy Meets World when I was 10... Cory Matthews was the first "celebrity" crush I ever had! Then it was the OC. I moved on from Cory and became obsessed with Seth Cohen.. Once that ended I discovered ONE TREE HILL! I had always heard so much hype surrounding the show... you know.. how good it is.. how hot the actors are.. basketball.. hook ups.. break ups.. heart ache bla bla bla! To be quite honest... it just sounded like any other teen drama... That is when I heard that it was coming to MuchMusic (a station up here in Canada) and they played it everyday from season 1... I gave in and watched the first episode... This is probably where you expect me to say something like "I was hooked on the first episode!" I could say that but it would be a lie... I wasn't. I feel like the worst fan when I say that but that's the way it was. It took a few episodes for me to actually enjoy it and get invested in the characters.. Now I couldn't imagine not watching it.. I don't want to go to far into it but it seriously changed my life. It wasn't just another teen drama... It was teen drama that had substance to it.. Characters that felt more realistic.. There isn't another show like it... 

More recently... I have made a little room in my heart for a new show: Supernatural.. No idea how I started watching it... I just started... I won't go into this one either but for those of you who don't watch it... watch it.... you will get hooked... and Jensen Ackles is in it... so.. you know.. if you like hot guys... :D

The main reason I wanted to start a blog had absolutely nothing to do with wanting a bunch of people to read it... It was because I like to write about things.. And what better way to do that then to write a blog.. I don't need a bunch of people to read it.. This is more for me.. I wanted to be able to put my thoughts somewhere instead of letting them fester in my mind and collect dust.
