Hi some of the words on my blog post http://collegegoldengoblet.wordpress.com/2012/07/01/college-what-to-take-3/ are not fitting/appearing so I was wondering if someone could help me…

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

The HTML of the post includes lots of wrong code. Did you copypaste the content from another source such as Word?

The images with html codes came from Polyvore.

And then you probably continued adding stuff in the Visual editor, thereby multiplying the wrong code.
You need to remove ALL of these:
```
<div style="width:600px;margin:0 auto;text-align:justify;">
<div style="text-align:center;">
<div style="width:600px;margin:0 auto;">
<div>
</div>
<p style="text-align:left;">
<p style="width:600px;margin:0 auto;">
</p>
<small>
</small>
```
It will be easier if you copypaste the whole content from the HTML editor into a text file, use the find&replace tool to remove the above, then copypaste the pruned version back to the HTML editor.
You’ll probably need further changes afterwards.

Before doing any of this, go to Settings > Writing, tick the option “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” and click Save Changes, to avoid messing up your blog if you make a mistake.

You’re welcome. But there are still issues, because you haven’t removed everything you should have removed, plus all the images except the first one are too wide (500px, while the widest that can fit in the theme you’re using is 490px).
