Second hw assignment

Homework Response Two
What I thought the article was saying was that trumps administration is accusing people of posting false facts about them on social media that are calling them out on their lies including the things they say they are going to do and what happening in the world right now. 
They respond by calling these lies alternative facts, but an alternative fact is different than a lie. A lie is a person voluntarily telling someone false information that cannot be backed up which is what much of what they’re saying.  This connects with the other reading because many young people today feel forced to believe and feel a certain about many issues in our society today.  They feel that this pressure is not allowing them to even have a change to consider what the other side is feeling. And if one does believe what some of the older generation believe in they are sentenced to judgement. Since this is the case how do we ever know what is right or wrong and true or false? To my understanding that is what alternative facts are.  Facts that have evidence backing the up in two ways.

My Five Year Plan

My Five Year Plan I am not positive on where I’m going to be in five years, geographically but I hope mentally to be really happy with myself as a person and be surrounded by people I love, and have a fun job teaching kids art.  I feel like right now most people have a hard time knowing who they really are and what they want out of this life and I myself am definitely struggling with those questions as well. I know I won’t have it all figured out by twenty-five but thinking about it now finding self-happiness and love is the most important thing you can do when you’re young. People always say this is the time to be selfish.  By twenty-five, I want to have traveled to at least 5 countries and hiked the Appalachian Trail, which I’m planning to do right after I graduate. It will be like my own quest to Mordor like in Lord of the Rings and I hope to do the whole thing straight through from Maine to Georgia. Relationship wise I would like to be in a serious rela...

Idea number two: I wanted to a stop motion animation of me playing a song on my guitar and have multiple of myself's playing different parts.
