title: Having trouble using requests for urls
body: <p>I simply wrote the following code to play around with the Requests library     </p>
  
  <pre><code>requests tests
  import requests
  r = requests.get('https://api.github.com/events')
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but I keep getting the same error message, even if I use <code>from requests import *</code></p>
  
  <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/dvanderknaap/Desktop/Organized/CS/My_Python_Programs/requests.py", line 3, in &lt;module&gt;
  import requests
  File "/Users/dvanderknaap/Desktop/Organized/CS/My_Python_Programs/requests.py", line 5, in &lt;module&gt;
  r = requests.get('https://api.github.com/events')
  AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'get'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've tried reinstalling requests using <code>pip install requests</code>, but the output is: </p>
  
  <pre><code>Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): requests in /anaconda/lib/python3.5/site-packages
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I think the problem is that it is installed in my python3.5 library but I am using python2.7, but I'm not sure how to fix that. 
  Advice?</p>
