を is "o", it is written that way to distinguish it from お.

私 の-vWhen you use my in English.

私は is for when you say I. like I go to school.

の is a particle which tells the possesion. It's used when you would use an 's in English.

は as a particle is pronounced wa when spoken and is used after the topic of the sentence is stated to indicate what was previously said is the topic of the following statement.

If you need help, ask me. =D


My Life Sucks- The kids I babysit have drooled, ripped or drawn on all of the cards and put the cars with the little people in the microwave!

I have no Friends- The cats have scratched and destroyed all of the DVDs!

I always owe someone- In fact I put two os in it!

I always ruin my clothes with Bleach!- The show is so dom suspensful I spill my grape soda on them!

But . . .I'll live.
