^^ That reminds me of a Southern joke: If you're a true Southerner, you should get this. What is the plural of "y'all?"
ALL Y'ALL!

I've been grading finals all week long, so I'm in absolutely the WRONG mindset to read crap like this. I had to break out the red pen and fix this mess.
It took me so long to figure out what her question was that I'm not going to spend anymore of my time actually trying to provide an answer. I will, however, offer this answer to her Thread Title (even though it isn't presented as a question). Yes, I can help you. Seek out your university's writing center. They have people there who can help people like you. Seriously, you should try it.

I have been doing a lot of research and I believe I have a good grasp and understanding about them and what they mean and thier programs.

Plus, I realize I'm completely wasting my time) I have been invite d by the vice president to go to all th eir events, community service project s, informational s and interview s. And yes I went to everything she invite d me to.
Do you think I have a good chance of becom ing a member?
I haven 't turn ed all my papers in because I'm waiting to get my transcript. (Omitted all this, so I'm not bothering correcting it: because It would be my first transict for college, and i finally got my grades. And I was wondering it might be too late to turn everything in and b/c i'm have to wait to recieve my transcit. )
Do you think they know I haven 't turn ed my paper work in or do they know, and still want me to come to events and stuff ? Do you think I should wait until next spring or do you think they are going to have one next fall?
What do you think they are thinking about me? Thank you for taking your time to review my post and thanks for the advice... 
p.s. you can also email me private, if you wish... |

Sydney - You missed "thier" in the first sentence of the second "paragraph". Though I'm sure this is beyond the level of anything the OP will ever get to, it is improper to end a sentence with a preposition, like the last sentence of that "paragraph". Although I admit the preposition thing is one of my worst grammar habits.

I knew I had to have missed something - there was just so much wrong.
Gold star to you, AF, for finding the others!

Someone needs to change the title to "In This Thread, We Nitpick Eachother's Grammar and Syntax"!!

Yes, that is something up with which I will not put. (To paraphrase Winston Churchill.)

^^^LOL, Sydney. If only you could get your red pen on her username! (I mean, really, this is either really purposefully bad, in which case it's just annoying, or I'm truly afraid of this incoming college generation...)
