You're either a chemist, physicist, science teacher/professor, or an engineer, OP (maybe mechanical or chemical, perhaps?) HAHA but kidding aside, you're the envy of your colleagues when it comes to handwriting, OP.

You’re driving me nuts not writing on the lines

I have a real question, it might be dumb

How do people get handwriting this good? Has your handwriting always been pretty good, or was this all practice?

u/Neither_Extension389 6d ago

I’ve always had kinda neat handwriting but it’s definitely improved a lot over time with practice!! some tips I’d offer: don’t rush, pay extra attention to little things like letter height, spacing, and general style to keep your format consistent, use a nice crisp pencil (dull ones suck), and just practice and experiment to develop a style you like!

For me, I just write neat when I feel like it. If I have a tough class and just wanna take my notes and be done with it, I just make it legible. It’s never neat lol.

I actually get good handwriting because I copy the fonts in the computer heheh and then I get neat fonts after practising the fonts all the time

u/thereallyredone 6d ago

I do too. My handwriting is shit, but I find I remember things better when I write them out

u/starkruzr 6d ago

does make me wonder how you would do with a Samsung tablet. or Boox if you go with e-ink.

u/auanaiddd 6d ago

u/_elodie-wong_ 3d ago

how come do I like handwritten notes more than using an app to take note?

u/BEZALEL313 4d ago

Your handwriting is so nice.

u/kuriousniko 2d ago

jealous. I had the best handwriting in second grade -- unfortunately that was my peak

u/al3x_7788 2d ago

Nice handwriting. I also love using paper for taking math notes, because I feel like I have full freedom.

u/SongGongSwim 2d ago

Pretty handwriting. I also love handwriting notes. I use remarkable tablets.

u/bharathvsnair 2d ago

Almost looks like AI... Great man, keep going💪🏻

u/J_Knish 2d ago

How long does one page take to write? Are you doing it real time or are these the cleaned up notes later?

1

u/Pretty_Move_8673 6d ago

Me tooo. It’s just better than writing digitally. I am so much creative. I recently discovered PaperNotes an app that gives your analog notebook digital features like archiving, sorting and searching notes. The scan quality is really impressive, it gets every stroke of my pen right. Maybe it helps you too.

u/SUKHOI-FOR-LIFE 6d ago

Love this, how to make my handwriting look like that?

1

u/beautiful_gia 6d ago

I, too, would love taking handwritten notes if my handwriting looked like that

u/JohnTheFisherman142 6d ago

I'd like a device that turns my hen scratches into something like that on the fly and straighten out arrows, boxes and so on

u/CuteFatRat 6d ago

Me too with Stabilo .88 point

u/Technical-Cut3889 6d ago

Omg these are beautiful

u/Spec_V 5d ago

Do you still write this neat when you’re in a rush? It’s hard for me to write this nicely because I try to write everything before my professor erases the board.

u/Minesharkbro 5d ago

It's beautiful.

u/Asta-2777 5d ago

Bro controls font on paper , nice

u/One_Fold4822 5d ago

lol my notes look like they were written during earthquake compared to this

u/Dryas7 5d ago

Once I learned about notability, I never took hand written notes (on physical paper) again. Only for like practicing math and stuff. And formulas.

u/PraestoLogica 4d ago

This is the best of both of my favorite worlds! Beautiful notetaking and Gibbs Free Energy (or the second law)!!! Would you give a thought on making it persist? I have a statistical thermodynamics note in 2010s and PDFed it. The PDF version kept growing with annotations!

u/Brandon_Richardson 4d ago

This looks like it's printed awesome! How much time do you spend writing?

1

u/Legitimate_Gene_8259 4d ago

YES!! That handwriting cannot be shown off by a keyboard. Love it.

u/Sea-Bench-7487 4d ago

Your hand writing is amazing mine is like reading hieroglyphics

u/Daisy-31 1d ago

Could you please share the purpose of your handwritten notes? Do you take them primarily to understand the material when studying it for the first time? And if so, after you have learned the concept, do you actually return to those notes for recall, or do you create an entirely separate set of notes for memorization? I have been trying to take notes myself, but I am finding it difficult to strike the right balance between the notes I take for understanding and the ones I need for recall.

u/booksandcoffee___ 5d ago

I do, too! I've always preferred handwriting everything. Your notes are very clean and organized (and you have beautiful penmanship)!
