At this particular point in my life, I am trying to improve my handwriting and find a certain way of speaking that may be more pleasant for myself as well as others.

1. My handwriting, I believe, lacks style. I have just chosen my way of writing an 'f' which I am very fond of. My 'a''s, however, have returned back to the way I originally wrote them. I also like the way I write the letter 'o' but for all the other letters, there is nothing I particularly like or dislike about them. I shall continue in search of special links and alterations that would improve my writing.
2. The clarity of the words I speak is lacking and I am striving to find an accent or "technique" that would suit the way my mouth operates. I am working towards an expressive tone which is very smooth but rather fast as well, making speaking a convenient affair. It is surprisingly difficult to maintain an unusual way of speaking for the whole day but it is essential to make a habit out of it, an absolute necessity to changing one's method of speaking.
