As you can see from the picture, I want my objects to be separate. I drew black lines where I want my objects to stay separate, but instead they kinda joined as one surface? Is there anyway to avoid that? Thanks...

I would be guessing if I thought you have used different features to create each of these 'objects?' If so, then uncheck the 'merge result' box when defining the feature.

Either use the Weldment function, or when extruding the profile, make sure the Merge option is not selected.
 
You guys are genius. Thanks!!!
 
I knew about the Merge option so I guess I am a genius too.
