The mechanical action, not the content, is what’s important. So you want something you’ll be able to stay focused on (and not be bored by), but other than that it’s not a huge deal.
Actually this could be a good opportunity. If there’s something you want to learn really well—potentially even memorize parts of—writing it over and over is a good chance to do so.
Depending on where you’re going, you may not need to worry about it much. When I was in postsecondary education, there wasn’t much handwriting required. And I graduated 13 years ago; certainly things have gone more online since then. You might want to check with a current student in your field of study at your university and see what the handwriting requirements are. Make sure to ask whether cursive is a dealbreaker.
If it is something you’re going to need to work on, there’s really no getting around it: you’re going to need to practice. Cursive or print, you’re going to need to practice it. Get a big notebook, and something to write (hopefully something you’re actually interested in), and just start writing. Transcribe a TV show as you’re watching it. Copy a book line-for-line. You get good at the things you do a lot, and so you’re going to have to write a lot.
Also, I would recommend slowing down. My handwriting is great when I’m writing slowly but can be terrible when I speed up if I don’t pay attention. Slow down to start; if it’s still not legible, slow down even more. Make sure you aren’t practicing your existing bad habits. Then, as you practice, be deliberate: focus on each individual letterform, and as you become more comfortable writing legible letters, try to pick up the pace.
There are other things that you might find help you out: try practicing on wide-ruled paper, rather than college-ruled, for instance. Try a pencil or pen which moves more roughly across the page, for more tactile response. Make sure your pen or pencil is making strong, clear marks so that it’s obvious what legibility issues are your hand (and not just a bad implement).
You can change your writing style; I have, on a couple of occasions. It just takes practice.
Bro, obviously I have no idea what you’re talking about. So either give me a link or shut up in an acknowledgement that you’re trying to get me to admit something and you actually have no argument.
Yeah, I have been. That’s why I’m saying what I’m saying.
Do you think I’m someone else?
How can I have contradicted myself when I haven’t made a single assertion? I’ve literally only been asking you to explain your statement.
Prove…anything, honestly. Prove that I called anyone bad (I didn’t, in any comment). Prove that there are mainstream leftists currently advocating for mass murder. Prove that you’re not just making up everything you’re saying based on “feels.” Grow up? I’m not the one pretending that my opinions are more important than the facts.
Prove it. But first, answer my question. Trying to divert the conversation won’t disguise the fact that you’re making false equivalences based upon nothing.
Indeed, but that’s step two after the other person realizes that they’re just saying “lol boths sidez samesies” with no basis for that opinion except enlightened centrism. (So never)
Who said that? I asked you to explain your position. I never said anyone was bad.
Non sequiturs are not answers to the question I asked. Biden is not left of Bernie or AOC.
Ok, two authoritarian leaders the modern left finds pretty abhorrent and regularly repudiates. You might as well say that Lincoln represents the modern right if you’re going that way.
You know what I meant. A modern, mainstream leftist—think Bernie or AOC, or leftwards—calling for mass murder or policies that would plainly result in mass murder.
Show me any mainstream proof of your characterization of the far left viewpoint. At all.
Ok, I was on the “old.” skin; let’s try the standard skin.
Nope, it doesn’t work on the standard skin, either.
Hmm, weird. I notice that you’re using Firefox; maybe that’s the deal. I am too:
Aha! I think that might be it! I can’t on Firefox either.
Edit: Nope, just tried it on Boost, and that didn’t work either.
Oh, bummer. But yeah, I remember being simultaneously bummed about the Fry’s closing, and also feeling vindicated that they were going out of business after how bad they had become in their last years.
One person’s experience on one computer with two distros isn’t particularly objective.
Greetings fellow Hoosier. The Castleton Best Buy is particularly awful, though I guess the website is not necessarily a reflection on that. Did you check the Micro Center to see if they have what you’re looking for?
Not at all. We’re free to move whenever we like, legally. There’s nothing in the contract that says we can’t. But if we did, any mortgage we’d get wouldn’t have our current (really good) interest rate, and we’d have to pay post-2021 home prices for wherever we’d move to. Like I said, we’d end up paying four times as much over the span of the loan for an equivalently-priced home.
Which is a choice that we could make. But absent a really good reason to move that would offset that massive financial incentive to stay, we’re stuck here until we pay it off unless we’re willing to take that huge financial hit.
