--- Quote from: Akima on 03 Oct 2012, 04:10 --- I suppose there might be people who can print faster than they can write cursively, but it certainly is not true for me. Sheer speed is the main advantage of cursive I think, though that might explain why my handwriting is ugly...

I print much faster than I can use cursive legibly (for other people anyway). That may have something to do with the years I spent as an army communicator where transmissions have to be written down completely, and MUST be printed. Frankly though, Christi's writing isn't that hard to read - except for the fact that it's a light purple on a white background....
Tai Fanboi:
I'll be honest, she's quickly becoming one of my new favorites, but I've always enjoyed people who are random and unexpected, balances out my usual demeanor which is most like what's his face from Secret Bakery. Large guy who had the crush on Padma (See even I can't remember who he is)
As far as the whole cursive debate... I read it no problem, but take that with a grain of salt for the simple fact that I can not write in print. No I don't have any objection to print or think it's slower... I just have been writing in script since I was in middle school, and after so long if I try to write in print the first 2 letters of the word will come out ok but the rest will be in the flowing arcs that is cursive.
Only thing that seems to re-wire my brain is if I write in capital regular letters :psyduck: But I often have to type out a transcript of my reports and paperwork for co-workers because, as the age of them becomes younger, they do find it difficult to get certain words I use in script. I find words with Z's like Hazard or beginning with them, like zircofluoride to be the most troublesome for them.
Script is first to go. Next will be regular spelling. One day the new written language will be text speak I fear :cry:

Throg:
How many more Azumanga Daioh references do you need here people? Now, if someone drives like a maniac in a beat-up car, and if Emily's parents have a big white Pyrennes dog, that'll take the cake.

--- Quote from: 0kamisama on 02 Oct 2012, 23:53 ---I'm, for one, LOVING Emily!
She's odd, silly, sugar-coatedly sweet and that pony tail... squeee~ ♥
--- End quote ---
Don't forget being a cute Asian. Gotta love cute Asians.
That aside, it also sounds like Emily's family is loaded.
I still wonder if Emily gave hearts to everyones names.
I predict more instances of Marten thinking Emily is flirting with him at the party or that Marten finally meets a new love interest. Big party. Lakehouse. Booze. Logical deduction.
