(Re)Learn in November

[Teddy]

Hello everyone! I have been planing to relearn shorthand for a while. During the last few years, I have been using shorthand in note taking, but just to the extent that I can recognize my own drill - but not sure if I write correctly. Therefore, I plan to go through the anniversary manual again starting yesterday, and practice writing things that are not in math. 

I just started grad school, and the scanner in my department is awesome. Yesterday I was proctoring a four hour exam, and I started to write shorthand (I couldn't find other things to do anyway). Today I scanned them all and I will upload my daily practice here.

Hope I will be able to do this everyday.

I don't class on Thursday. So I will upload both Wednesday's and Thursday's practice on Friday. Here is Lesson 4 and 5. I don't have classes on weekends either, so on Monday I will upload drills from Friday to Sunday.

I feel that I am not completely familiar with the words I have learnt so far, so I decided to practice Fundamental Drills. Here is exercises 1-4.

Writing "G" is so far the most difficult stroke for me. I cannot draw it smoothly like the book... unless I draw it slowly which is against the spirit of shorthand.

Since Deb says we are running out of storage, I will no longer upload my shorthand drafts. However, I will continue to update my study process here. If anyone is interested in my drills, they are on my personal website.

I took a little break during the thanksgivings. I have done unit 13 and fundamental drills 10-15.

By the way, I did a little modification about the online Gregg-ruled steno template. I change the lines lighter, and added auxiliary dotted lines between lines, so I can have a better control on the size of different strokes. I will start to use these modified version after I run out of standard templates. Check here if you need!
