I don’t know how many times I see people make spelling mistakes, and it really does irk me. Not so much spelling mistakes really, but grammar mistakes in general. People tend to use words wrong by spelling them incorrectly, so here we go!

Your/You’re: There is two versions of the “your” word. One is your as in your shoe. The other is you’re, as in you are, as in you’re pretty. You wouldn’t say “you are shoe” to someone, would ya?

They’re/There/Their: The same thing here. When you had ‘re to they or you, it becomes they are, and you are. Like They’re leaving now. There, as in look over there! Their, is used when talking about someone. Like Those shoes are their’s.

Who’s/Whose: Who’s = who is. Whose = Whose shoes are those?.

The apostrophe S: A lot of people don’t really understand where you should use ’s at the end of a word. You use them as possessive nouns, which is like “Ashley’s website is love-ashley.net” A lot of people also think that if the word ends in s they can just put an apostrophe on the end and that’s correct. It’s not when you’re speaking about something or someone singularly. You’d say “Chris’s house” unless you were talking about more than one Chris!

Letter Omission: This is another thing that confuses so many people.
Don’t = do not
didn’t = did not
I’m = I am
We’ll = We will
he’ll/she’ll = he/she will
who’s = who is
shouldn’t = should not
could’ve = could have

Then/than: Then is past tense. Then already happened. Than = rather.

Could’ve/Could of: Could’ve means could have not could of.

Quotation marks and punctuation: The period always goes inside the quotation marks. Like:
Correct: “Ashley really loves Lee, it’s true!”
Incorrect: “Ashley really loves Lee, it’s true”!

All right /alright: I have to admit, I use the “word” alright. It’s not correct, and it’s not even a word, but I still use it. Why? No idea. “All right” is correct.

Okay, I can’t think of anything else at the moment, but I’m sure when I see something else I’ll add it. And remember… I before E except after C!

If you haven’t noticed, I go through phases of blogging. I have my phase where I blog about all the shit that’s pissing me off, then I have a phase where I actually blog about my life, then I have a phase where I don’t blog at all. I always want to blog, but sometimes the motivation just isn’t there. I can’t figure out why though, because I’ve always loved it. Hmm. Oh well.

It’s supposed to be “storming” tonight. Who knows though? Everyone in Columbus makes such a big deal about weather. So we’re getting some lightning and a few sprinkles… so what. No need to run to the basement. I don’t know how many times this year the tornado sirens have went off and I’ve just sat here interneting away, lol. We are getting some pretty cool thunder and lightning though… and let me tell ya! It’s almost impossible to catch with a camera.

Moving on! I’ve decided I’m going to put my make up tutorials back up on here and possibly make some new ones when I’ve got the time. I have about 10 or so written ones that need to be posted, and only two videos. Which would you rather see, videos or written?

I’m totally bored on the internet tonight, and actually did every single bit of work I needed to do today, so I think I’m going to go and watch Miss Congeniality or something. (Which is where the random title came from, for those of you who didn’t catch onto that.) I’m really in the mood to go for a walk… but I’m not to keen on getting struck by lightning these days!
