× I usually don't do the shopping 'cause I still live at home with my parents, so my mom makes it most of the time.
✓ I usually don't do the shopping because I still live at home with my parents, so my mom does it most of the time.
The phrase 'makes it' is incorrect here because 'make' is not the correct verb for 'shopping'. The correct verb is 'do' when referring to shopping. Also, 'cause' is informal and should be replaced with 'because' for clarity.
× When I shop for myself, I either use digital notes as a list or I put it all in an online card and delete it out there if I got it.
✓ When I shop for myself, I either use digital notes as a list or I put it all in an online cart and delete it if I get it.
The word 'card' should be 'cart' as it refers to an online shopping cart. Also, 'got' should be 'get' to maintain present tense consistency. The phrase 'delete it out there' is awkward; 'delete it' suffices.
× Armstrong School. So I thrive by making to do less 'cause they make me have like an overview of everything I need to do.
✓ At Armstrong School, I thrive by making to-do lists because they help me have an overview of everything I need to do.
The original sentence lacks proper structure and clarity. 'Making to do less' is incorrect; it should be 'making to-do lists'. Also, 'cause' should be 'because' for formality and clarity.
× They really helped me stay more productive and on top of my things.
✓ They really help me stay more productive and on top of my things.
The present tense 'help' is appropriate here because the effect is ongoing. Using past tense 'helped' suggests the effect is only in the past.
× And don't forget anything.
✓ And I don't forget anything.
The original sentence is a fragment lacking a subject. Adding 'I' completes the sentence.
× Some people might feel overwhelmed Palace 'cause they had pressure to accomplish everything that's on the list.
✓ Some people might feel overwhelmed because they feel pressure to accomplish everything that's on the list.
The word 'Palace' is incorrect and likely a mishearing or typo. It should be removed. Also, 'had' should be 'feel' to maintain present tense consistency.
× And sometimes you just put in way more than you can do and our forwards, you feel bad about not accomplishing everything.
✓ And sometimes you just put in way more than you can do and afterwards, you feel bad about not accomplishing everything.
The word 'our forwards' is incorrect; it should be 'afterwards'. This is a spelling error affecting meaning.
× I prefer making lists digitally just because it adds more flexibility.
✓ I prefer to make lists digitally just because it adds more flexibility.
After 'prefer', both gerund and infinitive forms are possible, but 'prefer to make' is more formal and appropriate here.
× By making it digitally, I can add or remove stuff, I can change the stuff very quickly and also I don't have like all the paper around my room or always having to search for it 'cause it's on my phone.
✓ By making lists digitally, I can add or remove stuff, change things very quickly, and I don't have all the paper around my room or always have to search for it because it's on my phone.
The phrase 'making it digitally' is vague; 'making lists digitally' is clearer. Also, 'like all the paper' is informal and unnecessary. The sentence is improved by correcting verb forms and removing filler words.
