AAARGH….where was I during penmanship class.
I started trying to address envelopes. I made it through 5. It looks like a 1st grader wrote it. My handwriting is terrible….I’m trying so hard to make it neat and it just makes it looks messier because I’m trying too hard.
My main problem is that my handwriting naturally slants liberally to the left…whereas “normal” handwriting slants slightly to the right. So no one can ever read my handwriting because it just looks weird. So i’m trying to pull my letters to the right, which isn’t working because it’s not how I normally write.
My very good friend is going to have a go at it to see if he can fare any better!
*EDIT* We’re running the envelopes through the printer. hahahahaha. My very good friend’s try at the calligraphy was actually pretty good. But with the amount of invites we’re sending out, it would have taken forever for him to do all of them. Especially since he still needs to refer to the online strokes guide to determine how to form each letter.
Oh well…we accept defeat. But at least I did stamp all the return addresses on my envelopes by hand! A little loving touch by yours truly! (note to self: must stamp more envelopes to make up for the ones I just ruined with my awful handwriting).
Plus, I don’t have time to keep working on the invites because there are more important things to deal with…i have to start re-studying for the NAPLEX….the estimated reinstatement time is early november, meaning i have only about a month to study. I can’t believe how fast Sept flew by. I remember hearing that the NAPLEX was cancelled and that was the end of August. I remember thinking, YAY…i have two months to study. Well, now, i only have 1 month…and I have already forgotten everything i studied previously, so i have to start over.
So i just want to get the invites out, ugly envelopes and all….and collect all the RSVP’s (I better get them all back ON TIME)….and get all the little details done and over with.

i think you slant to the left because you were supposed to be a lefty!!
