2: I used to make the little curl thing but I stopped 3: not much variation here? 4: I don't close the top, but get pretty close (no right-angle-only 4's) 5: not much variation; I write everything but the top first, and then draw the top horizontal line 6: eh 7: I cross them 8: start on the right, make figure eight 9: circle first, then straight vertical line 0: sometimes clockwise, sometimes counter-clockwise (???) I can't actually decide what I do "most of the time" | ||

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/nZo1j.png) Top is how I was taught in school, bottom is approximately what I do now. What happens to my 5's is I start out at the top right but about half the time the top part is too short for the rest of the 5 so I end up drawing the extra bit on at the end. Every time I do this my 5 slowly starts looking like my dad's (who does that all the time and that's how he was taught) I don't cross my 7 because I have that thing on top left to distinguish it from my 1. And then I just started adding it to my 3's for some reason. | ||

Edit: Found the exact font they taught us to write in. Did anyone else here (most likely in US) have to do D'Nealian daily for like the first three years of school? | ||

2: w/ the loop 3: no flat top 4: right angles 5: top line last, being very careful to not leave a gap or any extrusions 6: standard 7: w/ a cross (I don't know why, I don't even serif my 1's) 8: I start in the middle, so there's less of a seam. I'm more interested in 9's though, since I don't quite know why the teach the weird 9 with the 'kink' in in at school. Ever since I tried for the first time I just couldn't go back because it's faster, and just nicer overall IMO. Also avoids the ugly/ambiguous y-like-looking-9 when writing fast ( | ||
