Mine's worse; even I can't read it most of the time.

I'm curious.
And I'll upload a page of my History notes for you tomorrow, because you all need to try and decipher a page about the Monarchy and Parliament in the early 1600s in tiny, illegible handwriting. You can feel like my examiners. They all hate me.
I write fairly nicely in cursive, but my print is very sloppy. I was home-schooled, and we were basically taught to write in cursive 100% of the time, which seems really stupid now that I'm out in the real world (not-at-home school) and cursive has no use whatsoever.Yeah, in elementary school we had to write cursive 100% grades 3-5, then we never did it again.
Why did I think 1638...*goes to check*
edit: 1688...My 3 probably looked like an 8 :lol
double edit:
The English "Civil War" between the crown and Cromwell and his cronies started in 1638.
I still have one saved from when we did the same thread years back, so I'm recycling it (my handwriting has no doubt gone downhill since). Kinda blurry, but you get the idea.

I don't have to read about it in every fuckin thread I open
Is it true that in the US, you don't learn to write in cursive?These days a lot of school don't. Though anyone in their 20s or older likely did.

Wait... you actually write that normally?Yes, yes I do, it's beautiful in its illegibility.
I find it amazing yet unreadable at the same time. I'm confused. ???
I'll write back to you, Alice, if you tell me what the last part says. :lol

'P.S- I am very jealous of Jamesman, I only wish Obscure saw me in that way </3' :')
I have the worst chicken scratch you've ever seen.I'm sure some Neosporin will clear that right up.

Schools in NJ (Elementary through High School) now require all work assignments be written with a computer and printed, so teachers don't have to decipher kids penmanship

Do they still teach handwriting? This makes it sound like it's going the way of the dodo.
I didn't know Italian had so many numbers in it. :P
Real math doesn't have numbers in it. Hell, you're lucky if it even has roman characters in it.
I guess you can see why I cook.
I have a pic taken, but I think I'm going to do something different.
:tupI guess you can see why I cook.
To keep phisicists and mathematicians alive :lol
My handwriting is terrible due to something that was utterly beyond my control.I sort of had something... not similar, but not miles away, whereby my primary school was insistent that everyone should do joined-up writing (as I still call it), so you'd lose marks if you didn't, you'd get told off, and there were genuinely handwriting exams at the end of the year. I get the impression it wasn't their fault, it was probably on the curriculum, but it was the one thing I never got right. Constantly struggled with it. Awful, awful, scribbly writing. And I kept on writing like that for years, thinking my handwriting was shit but that it'd be wrong to write any other way. Properly brainwashed - until at the end of the first year of secondary school, I got some scrap paper and wrote each letter separately, just to see how it'd come out.
When I was very young, I moved between second and third grade. The school system I had been in taught cursive writing starting in third grade...the one I moved to taught it in second grade. I basically had to learn to write in cursive without anyone actually TEACHING it to me, and as a result, it utterly destroyed my handwriting, because I wound up writing everything in the weird hybrid print/cursive style I taught myself. To this day, my handwriting is horrible, and if I want it to be readable, I have to print verrrrrrrrrry slowly and use large letters. Thank god for computers. :lol
