I've been feeling really awful for the past few days, super nauseas and like I have a constricted throat - so chances are I'm coming down with something just in time for this next bout of hot weather in London. Awesome! I woke up this morning though and saw that Karen of Dream Once More had written in her lovely handwriting on her blog; and I figured I might just be able to scrounge up enough energy to do that too.
My own handwriting used to be much neater. It was nice and scripted through university, and then I easily managed to perfect the teacher's printing while I was teaching back in Sydney. But a few more years out of teaching, followed by a whole lot of office and computer work has seen my poor freehand suffer!
Funnily enough, I don't really have one style of writing. I can change it quite easily into a different style, so I find it hard to pinpoint what my usual handwriting looks like. Still, I thought I'd give it a go - following these prompts:
1. Name/Blog Name
2. Right handed, left handed or both
3. Favorite letters to write
4. Least favorite letters to write
5. Write: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
6. Write in caps:
CRAB
HUMOR
KALEIDOSCOPE
PAJAMAS
GAZILLION
7. Favorite song lyrics
8. Tag 7 people
9. Any special note or drawing
So here's my handwriting as of today - slightly frantic and rushed, crooked and a little messy... but me.
Some Notes:
I actually have several songs I could've used - and actually would've chosen 'Everything' as Karen featured on her blog! (We have a mutual love of Lifehouse.) The lyrics I ended up choosing are by the same band, from 'Hanging by a Moment' - this is the song that brought Jase and I together back in 2001, so it holds a special place in my heart!
Consider yourselves tagged if you're so inclined and let me know if you do showcase your handwriting on your blog, so I can come and take a peek. They say handwriting says a lot about a person.. what does it say about you?
I've been seeing this a few places and I've been meaning to do it! I love your writing. It's so pretty! :)
ReplyDeleteYou have very pretty writing!
ReplyDeleteHere's mine - it's from when I first saw it so excuse the out of date and very wrong world cup prediction :)

FEEL BETTER! xoxo
Your handwriting is adorable! I definitely will have to do this. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm just about to do a handwritten post, because I don't have a webcam to do a video blog (yet)...
ReplyDeleteI love your writing!!!
your handwriting is my favourite thing to see in my letterbox.
ReplyDeleteFeel better! I used to have a great handwriting, but after typing everything, I think I forgot how to write! I recently had to fill out a form at work, and it took be three tries. However, when I am bored, I still doodle my first name in all different styles as well write my name and the alphabet with my left hand just as I did when I was in high school.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE "Hanging By A Moment". Love it.
ReplyDeleteAww. Feel better!
ReplyDeleteI think I may have to give this a shot. Show the whole world how terrible my handwriting really is!
I like your handwriting!!! We both like to write BIG and fill in the lines. I've tried to adapt to writing smaller but have failed to do so.
ReplyDeleteI love that song! It's so sweet.
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better!
Ok, Posted!

Just now catching up on your blog, and while I have read this post before, I could have sworn I also left a comment but clearly I haven't. You have such pretty handwriting!
