I don't see what's wrong with my code

breaks.py 
def loopy(items):
    # Code goes here
    for item in items:
        if items[0]=="a":
            continue
        else: 
            print item

You are very close, just two minor errors:

It should be 'item[0]', not 'items[0]' and print needs parenthesis around it's argument in this case.

def loopy(items):
    # Code goes here
    for item in items:
        if item[0] == "a":
            continue
        else: 
            print (item)

def loopy(items): 
    # Code goes here 
          for item in items: 
              if item[0] == "a": # selecting "item" 
                    continue 
              else: 
                    print(item)

At line 4 you put an "s" at the end of your item and you also need () on your print 

print(item)

Hope this helps !
