Thanks to the person who commented in the "other" section that I used the word "seperate" instead of "separate". I learned something. I honestly thought I was using the correct form of the word. I looked it up and turns out, this is a word I've used incorrectly my whole life since there is no such thing as "seperate" or "seperately". It will take some time to get used to using "separate" all the time. I thought they were two different words because they sound differently depending on how you use them. Like "read" and "read" I guess. All depends on how you mean it to be used. Now I need to try to scratch "seperate" from my mind, and never use it again, lol. Thanks again whoever you are! :)
