Argh. Who was it who coined the phrase 'pledge the library'? I understand that there's a level of informality in some online communication, but when you're typing to a community of people whose education level is college level or beyond, it's a nice gesture to use proper grammar/spelling/etc. It's difficult to read your post it's so riddled with mistakes.

Sororities. Apostrophes indicate possession. You're trying to convey plurality. Print this poster and hang it on your wall.

'Where' refers to a location - you're looking for the past tense of the verb 'to be,' which is were.
That's where the apostrophe belongs.
When writing in English, the pronoun I should be capitalized.
When you mean 'also,' the word is too.
I don't have near the amount of patience or desire to explain the importance of commas, but they're handy.

'There' refers to location (as in over there, not here). They're, the contraction of 'they are,' is the word you're looking for.

'Your' indicates possession, or pertaining to you. For example, 'Your grammar skills could use some help.' The correct word is you're, the contraction of 'you are.' Here's another poster that can help.

This.
