Under the cut is one giant handwritten image. You know the drill.

:) :) :)

I love that this is potentially becoming a Thing with people who are not me. :D

(Also the drawing was so cute, I maybe said "awww!" in real life.)

:D:D:D

I love that too! Handwriting is good. It's good to, you know, get back to the roots of written language.

(IT IS AN ACCURATE REPRESENTATION. Does that mean that my house is cute to you?)

I think that in my next entry, I am going to try and write neatly and see how that goes.

(I...guess so?)

You haven't been writing neatly? It's perfectly legible.
Shall I prompt you again?

(I think my house is cute.)

There is a difference between "legible" and "neat".

You can if you want, though I have a prompt from another friend that I want to write today.

(If the drawing was an accurate representation, then I suppose I think so too.)

Yours is fine. Although I suppose I'd have to see your neat version as well to see if there's a difference.

In that case I'll just ask one thing: list the names of ten less well-known awesome/hot women I should know about. Preferably people like historical figures, writers, religious or political leaders...in general, not actresses or singers.

I don't know if I even remember how to write properly. All those years of practicing my penmanship in high school wasted. :(

That will be an interesting one to do! You may not get it today, but I shall endeavour to do it soon.

It is a cute house! :)

I don't write cursive well at all despite the best efforts of kindergarten (the United States teaches penmanship very early in an education and if you're in high school without already knowing it you're screwed) but I can print legibly--dare I say even neatly--and quickly. I'm quite proud of this fact, actually.

Hurrah! Awesome and hot women are one of the greatest things in life, Y/N?

Thank you! I'm pretty pleased to live in it.

We had to learn handwriting for all of primary school, but mine was still rubbish after seven years so I spent a lot of high school practicing to get it neat and nice-looking. I used to spend hours with my calligraphy pens practicing different styles and flourishes and things. But I forgot it all when I started uni. :(

Y!

I love calligraphy! In fact I make it a priority to do a certain amount of entirely frivolous, for-myself writing by hand specifically so that my ability to make letters pretty with a fountain pen doesn't fall into wrack and ruin.

Women in general are amazing. I really don't understand how anybody can be a misogynist when women are so wonderful.

I like it a lot too. :) My dad is really good at it (in several languages/scripts!), which is what got me into it in the first place. But I haven't so much as picked up a calligraphy pen in years. :(

Well, to be more fair, there are amazing women and non-amazing women, just like there are amazing men and non-amazing men. The reason misogyny is stupid isn't that women are wonderful; it's that women are human.

You should totally see about picking it back up!

Well, yes. I wasn't trying to in all seriousness advance the idea that women are always good; I was just gushing. But women are just as capable of being wonderful than men are, and it's purely incidentally sometimes even more awesome when they are because it means that one can have girlcrushes on them.

Yes, I could do it in the spare time I have in between being a full-time student, maintaining a committed relationship, having two best friends who are basically like two brothers and expect just as much of my time, and running a choir.

Well, I do love a good girlcrush. :)

(Also, I have another handwritten entry up, if you want to go and have a look.)

...Oh yeah.
I'm sorry!

Who doesn't?

I'll take a look and comment! I may not reply to a reply for several hours, though, as I do in fact sleep.

I actually sometimes dread holidays because I know I'll need to use them to catch up on the stuff I'm not able to do during semester. :P

People who aren't attracted to girls?

Sleep is for the weak! But no, I do understand. Comment whenever, it doesn't bother me. :)

Well, then...as I said, I'm sorry! I'll do calligraphy enough for two people. Or something.

Ah, yes. Sometimes I forget that. XD

I aten't asleep yet.
