As a defense I'll say this: I'm arab, grew up mostly on online and speak and write four languages. Their grammars do intertwine, and I can't help it much. my colloquialisms and vernacular are not on paar with that of a native speaker's - my academic work had a higher quality of writing due to proof reading and tight work with a thesaurus.

And it's been a while since I was a student. Cut me some slack :p

And I know I should've written 'i have' instead of 'i've' - in Arabic we say 'ill efforts blacken the face'
