• Xanga Handwriting Challenge

  When I was younger, one of the careers that interested me was becoming a graphologist. I have been fascinated by the different ways people write ever since I learned how to do cursive! To this day I am still jealous of a boy in my grade three class named Ray -yes, I recall his name- who had the prettiest and neatest handwriting I had ever seen in my life. Given that I was around seven or eight years old, I don't suppose that is all that surprising. I wanted to write as nicely as he did, but couldn't bother to take the time to practice *L0L* 

  Nevertheless that fascination has continued, and I have on occasion picked up a book about handwriting analysis. I would make my friends and family write out things so I could analyze them to see if how they wrote matched their personalities. It has been a while since I've done that, possibly since high school when I thought my friend Dawleigh's style was interesting with all it's curly-cues (something I tried until I could do too and now write like that to this day).

  This is why @MyxlDove 's recent post about handwriting grabbed my interest. Apparently there is a blogger named @BFB1131 who has written a post asking people to write a note and photograph it. The rules are as follows:

  Hand Writing Challenge Rules:

  Write your name or your Username

  Then write this sentence (this should be written naturally): chocolates are amazing and so are you

  And then you can add something of your own choosing.

  Then take a photo and post the results on your blog with a tag back to me if you would be so kind

  So naturally I had to take part in this "chain" of blog postings, but I did mine with a slight twist. Oh, I did write my name, the requested sentence, and a third line of my choice. But then I decided to add a little something different... You see, back in grade six I cracked a bone in my right hand, forcing me to learn how to write with my left. I injured myself again in high school, and then again in university -you might remember my posting about pinching a nerve in my right arm and was unable to use it- so I had use my left hand for writing once again. Not having had to write as a leftie for a while now, I thought it was about time I saw just how far I deteriorated in my left-handedness. So here is my handwriting sample: 

  

  So there you have it. My cursive writing, my left-handed printing, and my right-handed printing. Anyone care to analyze me? *L0L*
