6 Life Lessons You Learn From Fiona Gallagher

In the beginning you’re skeptical about the 20-something year old, bad-ass that is Fiona Gallagher, but soon you learn to love the Slum-Queen, who kicks ass without wearing makeup I might add. You relate to her because she’s a struggling girl in her twenties, but you hate her for landing and then losing every single HOT guy that seems to just fall in her lap. Fortunately, she manages to dig her own grave and then pull herself back up and not let is phase her, and for that we can learn many things from Fiona.


1. You Don’t Need Anyone To Help You.

Fiona is the result of a bi-polar crazy mother and a deadbeat, drunken father. She somehow manages to overcome all the things that are thrown at her and realizes she doesn’t need Frank or Monica (the lovely parents) and raises her five younger siblings on her own. Independent and definitely a little crazy.


2. Sleeping Around Doesn’t Make You A W****.

This badass has zero regrets when it comes to sleeping around with all the hotties that slide their way into her life. “First date Fiona” is the queen of casual sex and with her crazy lifestyle who could blame her? (Lets be honest though, we all miss Jimmy.)


3. Your Friends Are Important.


With all the crazy things going on in her life, Fiona always makes time to keep up and check in on V and Kevin, who in return are always there for Fiona when she’s in trouble. Your friends are your family, and that's never been more true than in Fiona's situation.


4. Going Bra-less Is Totally OK.

How many times do you see this girl put on a bra after rolling out of bed? Very rarely that’s how many. Free-Boobs are the best boobs.


5. Get To Know Who You’re Dating.

This is a given for everyone, but come on!! Who marries someone after knowing them for two weeks. Having constant sex and locking yourself away in your man friends apartment for days on end isn’t a good way to get to know someone. You deserved the song Gus wrote about you, sorry not sorry.


6. NEVER Go Back To Your Ex.

Jimmy? Steve? Whatever the heck his name is. He will always be Fiona’s downfall, and I’m sure we haven’t seen the last of him. He messes with her head and pulls her back down to her past every time he comes around. Just goes to show that when you break up once, you should stay that way! Also, Fiona might have Kim K beat on the whole ugly crying thing...


Though she’s not the best caregiver for her siblings, she’s definitely trying her hardest and you can always see that (except for when she almost kills Liam). Fiona is a bad-ass and deserves some credit for all the good things she does. Again, she is only 20-something, and no one has it together in her 20’s.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
