In college, you'll meet a lot of new people with vastly different personalities. Here are some staples that you're bound to meet sooner than later as told by the cast of Shameless (Seasons 1- 3.)
1. Fiona - The Mom Friend
She's the girl that knows how to have a good time but also knows when to rally the troops and get everyone home safe. She's a natural leader and is sure to know your class schedule and wake you up because you forgot and almost slept in.
2. Lip - The Incredibly Smart Slacker
He's the guy that's incredibly smart but also incredibly unmotivated. He's the guy that doesn't show up to class because he's already smarter than the professor and it's not worth his time to show up.
3. Ian - The ROTC Guy
You never see him not in uniform. He wakes up at the crack of dawn to train and he also manages to go to class and still have a social life.
4. Debbie - The Planner
Similar to the Mom Friend, she always has her ducks in a row. She always has a planner in her has her day planned out the night before from the minute she wakes up until when she falls asleep. If things stray from her schedule, watch out.
5. Carl - The Delinquent
He's the boy that you stay away from. He parties all night and sleeps all day and he's always up to no good.
6. Frank - The Deadbeat
He's the one that you wonder why he's even at college. He skips every class and never does his homework. He drinks like a fish and he's always asking you for money.
7. Monica - The Fair Weather Friend
She's the girl that's there when there's a party or something fun going on, but as soon as there's a problem she disappears. You don't want her in your life.
*NO PICTURE BECAUSE SHE'S NEVER AROUND*
8. Shelia - The Nervous Wreck
She's clearly never been away from her mom longer than two days. You never catch her out of her dorm unless she's going to class and she goes home every single weekend.
9. Karen - The Yes Girl
She's the girl that's always down for anything. Party on a Tuesday? She's there. Pizza at 2 am? She'll buy. No matter the situation she's always down for a good time. Also the girl with FOMO or the girl who will do anything for the story.
10. Mickey - The Bully
You thought you left bullies back in high school, but nope they still exist and he's one of them. Although you may find out he's not as hard as he seems.
11. Mandy - The Girl That Always Gets Played
No matter what she does, she always falls for a player and gets hurt. You pity her because she has such good heart but such a terrible taste in men.
12. Jimmy - The Lovable Frat Boy
Yes he's in a frat, but no, he's not the worst. He's a super nice guy and he'll do anything for his brothers and his other friends. He's also a legacy and he's at college on daddy's dime. He's the friend that will drive you where you need to go and will always pay for food.
13. Ethel - The Fish Out of Water
She tried to tell her parents that she wanted to commute, but they made her give college a try. She'll make a few friends after a while, but she'll still transfer her second semester.
14. V - The Responsible Party Girl
She's always down for a good time yet she still manages to do really well in all of her classes. She has the best of both worldsand if she was a superhero her power would be balance.
15. Kev - Your Best Friend
He's the one that will always help you out in a bind no matter what. He's the guy with all the answers and may seem like he's not affctionate, but at the end of the day he'd do anything for his friends. You need him on your team.
