When I first joined Facebook, one of the reasons was to keep up with you... to stay in contact. But some of you are ruining it for me! Any student who has ever been in any of my classes, knows punctuation and capitalization. And proofreading! C'mon, people! If it's important enough to post as a status, at least proofread to make sure it makes sense! And look think back to English class... remember how every sentence begins and ends! I'm not judging you, honestly I'm not, but I do know you know how to write a sentence correctly... at least every once in a while.
And while I have your attention, I'd also like you to think about WHAT you are posting. Some of you have gotten so foul, I've removed you because what you you post offends me. You're an adult now, it's time to start acting more mature. Do you ever stop to think about the fact that your old teacher(s) are reading what you are posting? I just want to be proud of the person you've become... I want to know about your accomplishments, not that you got drunk last night.
Of course, I'm not talking about all of you! As far as that goes, this applies to some friends and family members, too. I'm just saying... think about what you're posting... and proofread!
Love,
Your English Teacher
