  7. About the editing sheet, #5, it says to check of at least 8 proper nouns or proper adjectives. Can they be repeated? Also, #6 says to draw the last sentence, but my last sentence is a reflection, so i can not. Should i change the last sentence or my i keep it the way it is?

  21. 2 proper nouns are 2 different names so Universal Studios is 1 proper noun so I wouldn't agree

    ReplyDelete
  22. highlight the last line and press normal justification and it should fix your problem.

    Yes that is only 1 not two proper nouns.

    WE are going to have a busy week that's why it is pushed back

    Anytime a month before is a good time to choose your event.
