Katelyn Daugherty · Answer 1

These are both Run On sentences.

Explanation:

a comma is needed after ago and a period is needed after engineering to make it Two complete sentences for number one. Number two you need to capitalize The, put a period after be. Then you would add the word of after couple. Also only use the exclamation if you would shout or exclaim that line. I feel like a period here would make it neater and easier to read.
