    Writing ur Name: Cursive or Print (Block Lettering)?

    Well, I don't think the style of writing should matter, I feel the quality should matter...I have possibly the worst writing in the planet, a very nice mixture of cursive and print, and I got a literay award, and a A+ aggregate for English! It doesn't matter!!!
