personally i am glad i learned it in school. i know some ppl think that it’s useless and that we should stop teaching it. however, have we considered: a) it looks pretty and b) it is fun……

My third grade teacher wrote four or five cursive words on the board (in chalk, lmao) and sat in the back of the classroom high. I'm talking eyes blood shot red. And i just wrote short stories, missed opportunity for me 😩

writing in cursive

I love writing in cursive so much. I love seeing other people’s cursive handwriting. I think I learn a lot about a person from their handwriting, no judgment, and doesn’t matter if it’s sloppy or whatever…. Cursive feels like art. It’s emotional. It’s underrated. I want to see more people writing in cursive.

a product of having cursive seared into your brain in 2nd grade

but not having the wherewithal to do it correctly. also sometimes i get bored (distracted?) and hold my writing instrument in silly ways just to see how my writing turns out. anyways, handwriting is a lost art form and i find it to be very interesting and an intimate way to learn about someone

looks like this <3

when i‘m not writing slow and intentional (ie note-taking, journaling) i write as a mix of cursive and print. also when i write fast i do a lot of shortened versions of things - i.e. int’l, ex., +, and so on. also! i cannot write in a straight line on a blank surface + my handwriting is huge (this is not a college-ruled notebook lol) so i have a hard time filling out forms no matter what i try lol for a while i tried making my letters and numbers fancy but i gave up lol. my capital Ms are nice though and i loooove a cursive capital J, Z, or L… those have got to be my favorite letters in cursive. lowercase f is also great i can’t believe they aren’t teaching kids cursive anymore!!
