The Gallaghers have a set of traits specific to their family. They're fiercely proud of these traits even when they tend to get them into a lot of very hot water. If you see these traits in yourself, you might be — brace yourself — a long lost Gallagher. (Disclaimer: You might run into some spoilers if you're not caught up with season 6.)

1. You work incredibly hard for the things that you want.


No one can say that you don't give it your all.

2. You know the ins and outs of the legal system in your city.

It's from experience.

3. You know the ins and outs because you've had a few run ins with law enforcement.

A lot of experience.

4. You've had more than just a few run ins.

Like, a lot of experience.

5. You take advantage of every opportunity that comes your way.

The Gallaghers are not ones to let a good opportunity pass them by, and neither are you.

6. One of your brothers is a drug dealer.


A little specific, but if your younger brother is named Carl and sells drugs, chances are, you're a Gallagher

7. You escaped from the south side of Chicago and went to MIT.

Not only are you street smart, you're smart. Use that brain and take over the world.

8. Your dad is actually the worst.

This one is hard to face. If you are indeed a Gallagher, you have the worst person on the face of the planet for a father, Frank Gallagher.

9. You've dated someone with multiple names. (Jimmy/Steve/????)

If you don't know what your ex's real name is, you're probably a Gallagher.

10. Your neighbors couldn't get pregnant so the husband made a baby with the wife's mother.

This is one of those things that you just don't talk about.

11. Your nickname is also a body part.

Lip, Arm, Foot, Tongue, Knee. You get the idea.

12. You're fiercely loyal to the ones you love.

Lord help the man that hurts one of your siblings.

13. You tried to steal a helicopter and failed miserably.


Specific, but once again, if you've done this, you're a Gallagher.

14. You have a strange urge to wear gold booty shorts.


Need I say more?

15. Your youngest brother is a completely different race even though you share both parents.


Yes, he is your biological full brother. No, he wasn't adopted. No, you're not lying.

16. Mood swings. Crazy mood swings.


Gallaghers are all known for this, diagnosed or not.

17. Despite everything, you still love your extremely dysfunctional family.


Love all around in the Gallagher house.


Now all of us relate to some of the things on this list, but if you or a loved one recognize more than half of these signs in yourself, seek medical attention immediately.

If you recognize all of the above... Lord help us all.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
