I love English. In fact, English was my favourite subject in school, simply because it was one of those subjects that didn't need studying. As long as I paid attention in class and spoke proper (i.e. not broken) English, I THOUGHT I would be fine. I always scored As in English for every exam, so I thought that my English was fine.
That is until I started my blog. Ever since I started writing, there are almost always a few mistakes that would be found. From spelling to grammar to sentence structure. Even if I re-read my entry and double checked it for any errors, people would still find mistakes!!! Geez!!
Has my standard of English started to dwindle? Okay...now I'm getting paranoid. Is it "has my" or is it "have my"???? The MILD OCD in me is starting to run on overdrive. HELP!!!
Of course...I am grateful that these mistakes are pointed out to me. I continously do the same for my sis and she hates it! I guess it's good that we each have our own 'spell and grammar checker'.
Well...I hope I've written this entry with NO mistakes. If one is found...then I'll just have to shrug my shoulders and go "Oh well..". Plus...I consulted mum on a few "has my or have my".

just to discuss with you because i'm not sure too...
do you say 'no mistakeS' or 'no mistake'?
MistakeS would be plural, meaning at least a few errors. If there is no 'S', that means one error.
