    Good examples and fact checking.
    I just found a few issues with your first example. Make sure that you spell everything correctly (grammatical) when you're pointing out errors and make sure the errors you point out are the correct ones to point out.
    In the sentence you used, the oxford comma isn't missing, that can be a choice of the author. AP style doesn't give a definite 'don't use this!' or 'do this every time!' about the oxford comma.

Journal Week 12

People involved: 1 st Girl: Black hair light blue eyes Green NDSU scrubs  Big smile  2 nd Girl: Blonde hair  NDSU gold sweatshirt  Where: Starbucks 52 nd Ave.  Large tables in the middle of the room The story: Two girls were sitting at a table inside of Starbucks off of 52 nd Avenue.
