TNK2002 - I'm an English teacher also - and have also found your posts confusing.
You mentioned that you "type fast" -- I would suggest that you slow down - and as another person mentioned - not use so many abbreviations. Your posts are difficult to read and difficult to understand.
English may not be your first language, but nevertheless, you should take your Yorkie money and go to night school and learn better English. You need to learn how to write, use good grammar, spell, and punctuate. You will find yourself handicapped all your life, if you don't make an effort to improve these skills now. And, unfortunately, I think you will often find your feelings being hurt (for the rest of your life) if you don't try and improve your writing skills.
I personally would rather be able to write, spell, and punctuate a sentence than get a fifth or sixth dog. You should take whatever money you have and do what is best for you. You are very young, and I have no doubt that you'll get a Yorkie one day. They certainly are wonderful little dogs to have.
No one is judging you as a person. I'm sure you're a wonderful person, and obviously a person who loves animals.....just like the rest of us.
I wish you lived close to me. I would love to help you with your English. I have taught junior and senior high school as well as college English and have also taught English as a second language for many years. I love teaching and especially love teaching people who are eager to learn. People who are willing to learn and improve themselves are special and should be very proud of themselves.
I think you got a lot of good advise, wish you the best of luck, and hope you stay on YorkieTalk.
Good luck!
