Atrocious. I write like a 2 year old with crippled hands.
-Shrug- The worse the handwriting, the greater the genius. ;P
... then I guess ENTPs are the smartest type :P
I write in CAPS. It's the only way to make it legible.
Not an INTJ, but no doubt heavily influenced by my well developed Te/Ni.
Top, both left page and right page:
"My lack of knowledge or understanding does not absolve me of my responsibility to give and support with it."(Referring to my "emotional apathy." Probably takes around 5+ seconds per word to write this way.)
The middle left page:
"This is my standard and current handwrtng includng intentionally leaving out some key vowels as neccsry to still undr[short scribble]nd the context."(Estimated 1-2 seconds per word)
The middle right, first:
"My curiosity is emotional....."
Middle right, second:
"The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dogs."
The bottom left page:
"This is my alternative amusing handwriting."
The bottom right page:
"And lastly, this was my writing during highschool (I think). Note the "a"s.
The odd manuscript:
Developed a month or so ago to help me write faster with fewer writing errors, as well as fewer strokes (efficiency breeds swiftness in this case), and lastly to keep work related notes which are confidential just that: confidential. (I do a lot of hiring/firing/etc. at work and have to maintain some notes, and generally have a poor memory so transcribe everything to that notebook before emailing it to myself later.)
The letters "a, e, r, s, i, n, t, and o" all encompass 65% of the widely used English written/spoken language, and add another ten or so and you end up at 85%. Uncommon letters (J, K, Z, Q) all are the same symbol as the chances they would be together are impossible, and I will eventually learn to read them in context.
Right now it takes me about as fast as normal writing to write this, but much longer to read. Thus I practice reading everything I write a few days later when it's not fresh in my memory.
My handwriting is a mix of print and cursive.

I write with a fountain pen the majority of the time so my writing comes out neat calligraphy.
My father is obsessive about neat handwriting. (even though his is terrible)
When I use a ball point pen my hand writing is a mix of neat cursive or printing depending on what the purpose of my writing is.
I used to write in cursive until one day in high school I started printing everything. I have no idea why, but I've been printing things ever since, despite numerous attempts to correct this regression on my part.
My job requires me to keep a log, and it's a mixture of print and block capitals.
Mine is so horrible... I can't seem to ever write as fast as I think. I try 0:
I have to maintain at least marginal handwriting 'cause at work I have to write down notes/directoin for dozens of people to later read and follow. They get pissy and complain if I don't, but don't feel comfortable getting with me, so the notes just don't get done and then I get pissy, hehe.
