1. Shameless House

If you ever wanted to live life like a Gallagher' head over to 2119 S Homan Ave, Chicago IL to see where the Showtime series “Shameless” is filmed. The exterior of the house can we found in multiple episodes like the one above. If you ever find yourself in the Chicago area you can take a trip to the Southside and take a picture on the steps, and leave a donation on the front porch.


2. Home Alone House

In my opinion, the holiday season is not complete until you watch the Home Alone movies. You can visit the McCallisters home at 671 Lincoln Avenue in Winnetka IL, although the interior has been remodeled the exterior is easily recognizable. The house sold in 2012 for $1.585 million.


3. Fresh Prince House

In West Philadelphia born and raised… visit the iconic Bankes home where Will Smith took his infamous cab ride to and see your childhood dream house. Sadly the house itself isn't located in Bel Air, rather in Brentwood. So hop in a cab and head over to 251 N. Bristol Avenue Brentwood CA.


4. Full House House

Wake up, San Francisco! About a mile from the famous Painted Ladies houses is the house where MaryKate and Ashley grew up, the Tanner house. Ask whatever happened to predictability at 1709 Broderick Street, San Francisco CA.


5. Downton Abbey Castle

You can get the full Crawley experience by visiting Highclere Castle. Now owned by Earl and Countess of Carnarvon, they open up their home between 60 and 70 days a year to create special tours, charity events, concerts and country fairs for historians and fans alike. You can even book the castle for your wedding reception! Plan your tour now and live your Downton Abbey Fantasy Highclere Park, Highclere, Newbury RG20 9RN, UK

6. Breakfast At Tiffany’s Apartment

The exterior shots for Holly Golightly’s New York apartment were filmed at 169 East 71st Street, Manhattan, I can assure you the inside is indeed fully furnished ( as was recently sold for $8 million). So after visiting the infamous Tiffany’s hop in a cab and pay a visit to Holly and Cat.

7. The Dursleys House from "Harry Potter"

The Famous Dursleys house, at 4 Privet Drive is actually located at 12 Picket Post Close in Bracknell, Berkshire. Although once occupied by the boy who lived the house recently sold for €290,000. You can also visit a model of the home on the Warner Brother Studio Tour.


8. The Twilight Houses

Time travel back to middle school and relive your Twihard years by visiting the filming locations for Bella Swan and Edward Cullens home. Although the legitimate town of Forks Washington has accepted the twihards and made profit off of Twilight tours the actual filming locations are located in Oregon. You can visit the Cullen House at 3462 NW Quimby Street, Portland Oregon and Bell’s house 184 South 6th Street St. Helens, Oregon


9. A Christmas Story

The house, complete with the sultry leg lamp in the window, has been restored to look exactly as it did in the movie. The home is also open year-round for tours as well as overnight stays. You can check out the house for yourself, just 5 minutes from downtown Cleveland at 3159 W. 11th St., Cleveland, OH 44109, and make sure to visit the A Christmas Story House Museum right across the street .


10. American Horror Story Murder House

The haunted “Murder House” from season one of American Horror Story went through a serious makeunder for the popular Ryan Murphy show. The current owners of the house, who purchased it for $3.2 million in 2014, are suing their realtor and sellers claiming that they mislead them about the popularity of the house claiming hat hundred of fans come to their property daily to catch a glimpse of the famed house.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
