I choose to create a timeline using Timeline JS, and I have add four events and things I have did throughout the semester. I used simple coding to add hyperlinks to the events in my timeline.

Has the border wall construction begin
I came across a news article titled Has the Border Wall Begun, and this article mentioned that president Donald Trump declared that the construction of the wall between the United States and Mexico has began. This article included a picture that was described as an image of the construction of the Border wall. Therefore, I wanted to verify and check both the article and the image that was included as well. I used politifact.com to verify both the article and the image that has been used. The used image on this article has been tweeted by Donald Trump, and he stated that the image as “great briefing this afternoon on the start of our southern border wall!”. Politifact.com mentioned that this article is mostly false, and it mentioned that there are undergoing projects to replace fencing but that doesn’t include any constructions for the border wall supported by the Donald Trump administration. “There are projects underway along parts of the border to improve or replace fencing, but none of that includes any of the eight border wall prototypes ordered by the Trump administration.” (Valverde, 2018). Also, the image that Donald Trump tweeted isn’t for the border wall construction as he mention; rather, the image was for the construction to improve the fencing.
Time to change the NBA culture
As we enter the first round of the NBA Playoffs, you have to acknowledge the success of the Philadelphia 76ers. A team that three or four years ago was one of the worst teams in the league.
As the Sixers continue to progress, many NBA teams may now consider to “tank” their seasons to see if they can repeat what the Sixers have done. If that is an option, how will this effect the NBA.
NBA commissioner Adam Silver recognizes the issue and has been working on trying to resolve the issue. At one point in time, he even sent out a memo in regards to the issue to all 30 NBA teams.
No one knows when, or how the issue will be resolved, but let’s hope the integrity of the game stays intact.
The lack of social media accounts
I do not post/write much on social media. I have a snapChat account, Instagram, Facebook, and just made a twitter account last week for this class. I use facebook to stay connected with friends and family. I play games on Facebook and browser. I just do not post much.
I am just starting to use Instagram, but still learning how to use it. I am still more of a browser. My little cousin is the only person that has posted on my Instagram account!
My snapchat is my most active social media. I love snapping my friends and family it is so much fun. Snapchat has made taking pictures and videos a daily occurrence. They have now twisted it into a news source too. Follow me at bukaroo09!
I do have my own website but is only used for school reasons. It is like a resume website.

When I came to this class I was in shock when I had to learn how to blogging.
When I realized this was a journalism class and how I knew I was so bad at doing assignments
I never gave up and a lot of people like my while-card blog about educational classroom and educational games so I make a collage of this being the most imprinting thing I have learned from this class.
The tool that I use to make this college is called pics art an application found on google play store.
