21 Times I Fell In Love With "Gallavich" On Shameless

I am obsessed with Showtime's "Shameless." Along with basically everybody else right now.

I love every character in this show. However, there are two characters that have stolen my heart throughout the series, Ian Gallagher and Mickey Milkovich.

I have never been this emotionally invested in a fictional couple, ever.

They have one of the most touching, dynamic, and unique relationships on television. These two have endured so much individually, but together? They've experienced even more.

They are unlike any other couple on television. Not only are they trying to figure out how to survive their hectic lifestyle on the south side of Chicago, but they are dealing with their internal struggles about being homosexual among other things. Especially Mickey, because of his violent, closed-minded father.

Through it all, they grow so much as individuals and as a couple season to season. Their love story is so compelling and powerful. You cannot help but fall in love with them.

I don't know if it is the way Cameron Monaghan and Noel Fisher have played their roles beautifully or the way their characters constantly give each other sh*t, but they stole my heart scene by scene:


1. In the beginning, Mickey tried to hide his feelings for Ian but they were totally obvious:


2. The first time they went to the baseball field:

3. What happened when Ian went to check on Mickey after his dad caught them:

4. When Ian begged Mickey not to get married:

5. When Mickey finally showed his feelings when Ian told him he was going to the army:

6. After Ian and Mickey get back together, and they go to The White Swallow and Ian tries to kiss Mickey and he looks so uncomfortable:

7. But then they kiss in public for the first time:

8. When Mandy tells Mickey his wife is giving birth and Ian is all:

9. Anytime they give each other sh*t:

10. Seriously, it's my favorite:

11. When Ian gives Mickey an ultimatum at his son's christening:

12. Then they share this moment after Mickey comes out in front of everyone including his father:

13. I mean, come on:

14. When they played house:

15. Anytime they said they loved each other:

16. Then Mickey finds out Ian is bi-polar and tries everything to help him:

17. Their touching goodbye as he gets admitted to the hospital:

18. When they made up after fighting about Ian's medicine at the baseball field, even all beaten and bloody they are still too cute:


19. After season 5 everything is very up and down with these two, so let's just reminisce on their better moments like:


20. And this:


21. And this:



I am not saying it's healthy to beat each other up and live their lifestyle, but I will forever love this relationship.

They get each other, they know each other, they are there for each other, and most importantly, they love each other.

Ian and Mickey may not have a happily ever after when the series is over, but I will forever love this show for creating a love like theirs.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

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!
