Do you love your penmaship?

There is a saying that goes "Love your own". But in this case I can't bear to love my penmanship. When I was in grade school there was time that my penmanship looks good but sometimes it looks bad. When I was in High School I was able to love my penmanship because it looks better. But when I entered college that's the longest time that I hated my penmanship, too many things to write and always in a hurry and it came to a point that I don't care what my penmanship looked like as long as I can finished all those writings. And then I used to write that way even when I'm not in a hurry. But the bad thing, until I graduated college and until now that ugly penmanship is what I brought with me, "the ugly one". How about you? do you love or hate your penmanship?

Hi chentunacao, my penmanship isn't that great either but it is not bad at the same time. And while it is just average, I love my penmanship because it resembles to the penmanship of my mom especially when I am writing in cursive.

good to hear that lady. What I hate most about my penmanship is that even me sometimes can't read my own handwriting. Funny isn't it? Before, I used to laugh with that joke without knowing that one day it will happen to me.

I have the joy of working in the computer industry, I have to make a point of picking up a pen just to ensure I still have the ability to write. My handwriting is dreadful, unless I write very slowly, I just don't form the letters correctly, many times I have been unable to read what I have written. Mostly if I write notes in a meeting I immediately go back and type then up before I forget what was discussed. I do make time to practice, but as soon as I'm in a rush it all goes out the window again :(

Hi chen! Actually, I don't have an idea that I have a nice penmaship until one day one of my classmates keeps looking for me. So I asked her why? She told me that she is looking for me because she wanted to ask help from me to write on the front cover of her project. There were no computer yet during those times. Until now, my officemates would come to me whenever some thing is to be written. So I can say that I love my handwriting. Have a nice day!

It's nice to hear that from you aries. You're so lucky to have a lovable penmanship. I can say that you are lucky because not everyone have good handwriting.

I couldn't read my handwriting so I went back to printing - actually, my dad did too - if he wanted to be read. Now, my printing has turned into a kind of cursive, not real cursive, but faster than printing normally is...

I ahve nothing against my penmanship. I lik the way it is. I'm just sad sometimes when some of my friends make fun of it because they can't understand it since it's like a doctor's handwriting. That's what they say. So they don't understand some of it. HAHA! But when they say it's ugly, it kind of hurts. But maybe they are just joking about it. I hope... Happy mylotting to you fellas!

When someone says " like a doctor's penmanship" I can't help not to laugh at it. Considering myself as one of those who has a "like a doctor's penmanship". And if you like the way it is that would be good. Contentment with what you have and being proud of what you are capable of regardless of what your friends are telling you is a sign of positive thinking. Keep it up. Love your own anyway... Happy mylotting.

I love my current penmanship but I also hate when I try to decode what I have written. I had been in situations when I have to write fast but unable to decode it later on. Of course, my first penmanship as bad - both at cursive and non-cursive. It makes me laugh but I loved the fact that I have improved.

It's good to hear that shavkat. You're so lucky to have an excellent penmanship. I am not too much bothered with my penmanship except when I can't read it anymore. But I envy you for having a good one.
