become ambidextrous

I’ve practiced forming each letter of the alphabet with my left hand until I got their shapes right…but I still have difficulty writing whole words because it is harder to combine letters together and make them the same distance apart and make the lines smooth.
I am going to try harder though ;)

I will also do more things with my left hand…I am quite good at eating with my left hand because I often write homework or type on the computer while eating, so I am forced to distribute the jobs between my two hands…

need to learn it.

I’ve known for awhile that I have to be able to write with my left hand to consider this done. I can do pretty much anything now easily or semi easily with my left hand… except write. The thought of it makes me wince. It feels so clumsy and it gives me this strange surge of panic. It’s awkward and I always want to switch to my right. Going against habit, or possibly your instincts, is difficult.

But I’ve started, finally, to write out the alphabet with my left hand.

You can see a written sample here. It goes without saying that my right hand wrote the upper line, and my left is responsible for the bottom line. It took all my concentration! but I think it’s not bad for a beginner.

Like, I’m not trying to do it for any reasons other than the obvious: It would be a cool and handy (ha) skill to have.
Right now, I’m working towards this goal with small things, like carrying objects and opening doors and such with my non-dominant left hand (when I remember, when it’s convenient). I doubt I’ll take it to trying to sign important papers with my left hand, though, unless something happens to my right hand.

Interesting!!
I wanna try this out…Mainly bcos I wanna do something out of the norm and be more creative.

So this is my first step towards the creative ME!

I am better with chop sticks using my left hand than my right. Strange!

I managed a bit of lefty coloring the other day!

So I’d like to be able to use both equally well.

th this is looking a bit impossible. i mean i havent really been trying that much but still when im bored n i swap hands its just the funniest thing ever. my ahnds all shaky and dropping the pen. i seriously need to sort that out =)

I have just left school and after the exams I have a very long summer with surprisingly quite a lot to do! I am usually left handed – so I am already quite rare in my handedness. I would like to become ambidextrous because if I ever broke my arm (I’m quite accident prone) it would be great!!

I am also studying graphic design, and I am fascinated with type. I think that at my interview it would be really interesting to say that I taught myself how to be ambidextrous!!

I have bought a exercise book and everyday I will use a page trying my abc’s. I am going to do this because its a good chat up line!
