Your journalism teacher is right. As a journalist, you should never think.
:wave: Me too! I'm a mass communications major! Journalism is really killing me this semester. My professor wrote our freaking book and she is terribly if you make a mistake that she points out in "her" book. Especially the "I think..."
Good to see a few more of us out there! Sorry for the thread drift. :animwink:

Guilty, Guilty, Guilty! I often write "I think"or "I believe" when I should write "In my opinion." I guess I'm just trying to make a point that (despite what many people may think) I'm not infallible.
And that was a joke! I am far from perfect...but at least I know it.
But always a perfect lady! :kiss:

I absolutely hate it when people say "me and my friend", I cant stand it, they need to say "my friend and I". I also do not like it when people talk in slang, I dont get my generation and their extremely awful grammar, I'm 15. I also get annoyed when people use good instead of well, I sometimes do it but I try not to. Those are my pet peeves.

I have quite a few grammar pet peeves, including:
1. Using the word "that" when it is unnecessary. I thought that Pluto wanted to sign the book that I was holding.
2. Pronouncing the word "moot" as mute.
3. Misspelling anything written in a package with a spell checker.
I also agree with what has been said about apostrophes. I rented two stroller's. :zipit: :zipit:

I wish we could of pool hopped at Stormalong Bay, but the CM was checking ID.
instead of
I wish we could have seen the parade, but we were stuck in line at Space Mountain

Just a little bit. I'm one of those types who comprehends that Disney World is very popular and lots of other people want to ride the ride just as much as I do, and the people infront of me got there first, and so they get to ride it first, and so the line only moves so fast. That all makes perfect sense to me.
