It makes even less sense to me, one of those spellings (I won't say which one) is my last name. T.T
(Possibly) Back after a long hiatus!
If you have any questions or need help, feel free to ask me, I'm always happy to help!

Last time I checked, color and colour had the same definition.
Confused, much?

    Where I live, no one uses British English. I'm not even remotely British, but I prefer to use their spellings... xD
    I've never understood the 'grey' and 'gray' thing.

I'm not a Brit either, haha. xD;; I just prefer the English spellings, they make more sense to me.

    Hah, people even tell me I have the accent, though I am confused by this. Well, their spellings seem a lot more practical for some reason... :l

Gray is a color while Grey is a colour. That's the most I know. Though the difference between the two is spelling to me.

    As far as I know, it's just differences between American English and British English.

That's pretty much it I guess, mainly preference. Just another one of those thing that are there to confuse and torment you.

British spelling does seem more practical, doesn't it?
I don't know why I use British English anyways. It kind of sucks when we're doing group work because they're like "OMG THAT'S NOT HOW YOU SPELL COLOR!!!1!!!!!1!"

I just write things as I hear them. I never tried to write any other way than I was taught.

I was listening to a song on youtube, and the person who uploaded it wrote the lyrics below. They got so many words wrong that it wasn't even funny.

Also, I made a banner.

(I hope I'm allowed to post. I did submit a form.)
Anyways, I just got a trade with understandable english. =D One of the few I've ever gotten.
My annoyance: I have a habbit of writing bc for because, btn for between, and many others like that in science class.
I'm a slow writer, so to get everything on I have to take shortcuts. But now it's a habbit.
That and I use ... too often. What are the rules for that?
