College As Told By The Gallaghers

After all, maybe we are all a little "Shameless."

Feb 06, 2017

When college started, I could have used a show like "Shameless" to get me through the most annoying days. It was not until recently that I discovered this unreal show. Honestly, I am awful at finishing shows with long episodes and lots of seasons. But "Shameless" is always keeping me on the edge of my seat. There's everything from violence to romance and everything in between. Looking for comedy and action? Look no further.

The Gallaghers are probably the most iconic family to hit the TV screen. Whenever I am having an awful day, they taught me things could be WAY worse! When they are at their lowest low, the only way to go is up. "Shameless" has taught me a thing or two about human growth and getting to know myself, but more importantly it has taught me to live in the moment. Stay tuned for a glimpse at college as told by the Gallaghers!

1. Going into all multiple choice tests like

A, B and C all sound equally confusing, so I'll just go with all of them.

2. Failing a group assignment because one of your partners plagiarized

If you think you're working with us after this, think again.

3. Finishing all your homework and having a free night ahead

What is the move people?? Pub or Stag?

4. Searching for someone to tutor you in stats like

Help me -- I am failing!!!

5. Sleeping past your alarm and getting ready in 10 minutes

I have three minutes to change and get on the shuttle!!!

6. Thinking you're an amazing writer until you get to college

What is a rhetorical situation? Can I just write about how much I love my dog?

7. Sitting in Starbucks like

This guy has a scarf on and a double shot of expresso in his hand.

8. When you get a B after studying 10 minutes before an exam

There is a god!

9. Maybe school is not our thing, but professors should appreciate our other skills!

Listen I am smart in so many other ways...

10. Getting into the bar with free cover like

Now I have $5 extra to spend on Jimmy Hulas!!!

11. Successfully getting 500 dollars in your donor drive

All those Facebook posts worked out!

12. When a random girl in class asks for the quiz answers

Go google them...

13. How I feel having to clean my room without my mom

"But mom, what does Lysol even do??"

14. The college motto

Common sense!

15. Looking at girls who have x's on their hands from the night before

Just wondering, but did you go out last night?

16. Every activist on campus

We get it, Trump is not your president!

17. Getting that weekly deposit from Dad like

Help me, I'm poor!

18. Seeing kids get roped at the bar

Rookie mistake!!

19. Maybe if you cry, the professor will pass you with a C

I have a 69...please!

20. Wondering why no boys hit on you today

I mean, I am approachable. Come on.

21. Would do anything to not eat ramen for the 4th time this week

All I want is a Pub sub and iced tea :(

22. Meeting your partner-in-crime in college

We are trying not to get into too much trouble.

23. Sitting in lecture like

When am I ever going to use Algebra anyway?

24. Fighting the urge to turn around to the obnoxious frat guy behind you and say

Omg, you are like so frat getting with four girls on the grab-a-date, bro!

25. Standing up after a long chapter like

I did not listen to one thing you guys said. Anyone hungry?

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
