In informal spoken language, 'There's' (never 'There is') is commonly used in place of the correct 'There are'.

Oh gosh! I just wrote "There's so many things..". Sorry! I think it should be, "There are so many things.."

Use the correct form for school and examination purposes. Don't worry about in in conversation (or informal writing).
