With the popularity of instant messaging, email, and video calls, it might have been a while since you’ve received a handwritten letter. And we can relate. We feel for you… from the bottom of our "Dear John" hearts. There’s something super special about knowing the extra effort that went into someone actually taking the time to write to you. They couldn't hit backspace. And start again. If someone took the time to use a pen and some paper, in this day and age, keep them around.

We aren’t talking about scribbling, or the doctor’s note type handwriting. You know that smooth, calming, “eyegasmic” writing? That’s what we are referring to. It's an art. And because we miss it so much, Bored Panda scoured the net to find some of the best samples of gorgeous handwriting that might make you want to shut your laptop and practise your cursive. Keep scrolling for an epic treat of perfect penmanship, and don’t forget to upvote your favorites.

    I have read about people with handwritings so good they look like printed characters. Not that I doubt about the possibily, but actually seeing one is kinda wild.

    You will never be a successful doctor unless you stop this nonsense - grip the pen with your toes or something if you want to fit in with your colleagues... /s. Honestly though, these are excellent notes, and the illustration is superb.

    I honestly believe that cheat sheets like this are legitimate - it's much more important that the student understands the concepts and can interpret and apply them, than have a memory for complex equations. Provided the student knows what the relationships mean, then precisely how to write out the formulas is less important.

    The Rhode Island Red has great proportions and is a sturdy bird as well as a good layer. Yes, there are now breeds that produce heavier breast meat and make great egg layers, but they are compromised and are less capable of enduring old fashioned barnyard life. If you want to have a healthier chicken house, the RIR is still a respectable member of farm poultry.
