1. Learn how to spell diarrhea and arrhythmia without having to use spell check, scratch/tilt my head, or awkwardly ask my neighbor.
- This may not be a problem for you....for the simple fact that you don't have to use these words often, much less spell them...but it is quite the task for me. I now write these words almost daily. They are just funny words to spell.
2. Learn the difference between affect and effect.
- I know what you are thinking....aren't you in college? But, these two words have always been so hard for me to understand. It is definitely one of those things I re-learn before papers...and then IMMEDIATELY forget. It just makes me a little sad to always have to figure out away to avoid these words.
I'm a little bit of the grammar nut....but I still make mistakes. It bothers me when people mix up to, too, two, there, they're, and their. I, also, like things to be spelled correctly. Although, I promise to never judge you if you mess up any of the above words. I completely understand.
