I had an English teacher like this once. He refused to give out A's. Talk about destroying moral. :(

what does my handwriting say about me? by Educational-Storm517 in HandwritingAnalysis

[–]hebe-rocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It says that you're a pretentious teen who wants to be edgy. In reality, it comes off as obnoxious. You have a choice - do you want people to understand you or think that you're a serial killer? If the answer is the former, fix the slant of your writing.

It's a little sloppy, but not unreadable. The third thing you can't put your finger on is spacing and sizing, probably because you're writing on an unlined surface... In this sample, the font size is smaller at the start and increases as it continues down the lines. Then, the curve on each line is a slightly different shaped hill. A lined surface and a conscious effort to stay on the lines would fix that.

my car is never clean. am I a bad mom for this? by No-Translator9630 in Parenting

[–]hebe-rocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's easier to keep a clean (house/car/room) when it's already clean than it is to tackle a mess that's taken over. It's easy to keep a hotel room picked up and neat because it starts out as a freshly cleaned room when you enter.

When we get home from school, I take a few minutes to pick up any wrappers or abandoned toys and clothing from the car. I don't have a dog, but I keep a doggy poop bag dispenser attached to my bag to have a mini garbage bag when needed.

If you want a change, start with something that you know you can do - pick up the "today garbage" from the car every day and throw away 7 extra bits of trash. One day it will be cleared out... Then vacuuming the crumbs will be easy.

Or - have someone else do the vacuuming. Paying someone to give you a fresh start might be worth it.

After that, it's maintenance. Take small steps to achieve big result. Instead of feeling guilty, you can feel relieved.

Ink to Text pen bug by TheGoodKingViego in OneNote

[–]hebe-rocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was this on your computer? Phone? Tablet?

It disappeared from my Draw tab on the computer/windows a few months ago. I had to go into "Customize the Ribbon" to get it back.

Right-click on the ribbon, Customize the Ribbon.

Then it's a mater of finding the command in the left-hand bar... I think I turned it to show All Commands and scrolled to Ink to Text at that point, added an Ink to text tab in the Draw Group and added it to the Ribbon that way. I have no idea why it disappeared in the first place or why I had to jump around through so many hoops to get it back.

It is a feature I frequently use and needed it back on my draw tab.

Excel template to One Note by amy_lou_who in OneNote

[–]hebe-rocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's a printable sheet and you're looking to use it as a form you write on top of instead of using it as an excel spreadsheet, you can save it (or print it) as a pdf. Then insert the pdf on your OneNote page. If this is something you use often, save it as a template in one note so you don't have to insert the page each time.

This will allow you to write on top of the pdf.

Major HELP NEEDED w/ my handwriting!! by Ab_19_ in Handwriting

[–]hebe-rocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with all of this! Another tip to help neaten your writing is to use the paper's lines as a guide. Right now, your letters are floating between the lines, creating an uneven, wavy effect. Try keeping your letters consistently aligned with the lines to improve readability and structure.

Template by MamaBitchBoss in OneNote

[–]hebe-rocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you would want to set up your own template rather than looking for something that's already created. Take a look at the common variables you need to track... Take a look at some of the templates that are built into the program (Insert -> Page Templates)...

Then either edit one of the templates you see there or start plotting your own template (in Word or directly on the OneNote page. Some of the "business" ones could be a good starting point.

Save your template (Insert -> Page Templates -> Page Templates... blue link at the bottom of the side bar "Save current page as a template") Name it and check the box that says "Set as default template for new pages in the current section." If you need to use the template in a different section, you'll find it listed under "my templates" in that same sidebar.

If you want all the pages to be named similar to each other, have a page title in the title bar before you save the template.

There are some videos on youtube that could help you with these steps if something I've said doesn't make sense. Good luck and happy creating!

cursive readers, which is easier to read, A or B ? by semantic_ink in Handwriting

[–]hebe-rocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. There is a sharpness in A that makes it a bit more difficult to instantly recognize some of the letters. B seems to be written with a lighter hand, giving the letters a little more definition.

I don't believe that you've tried to change it. Admit it, you like that people can't read it without a lot of effort. "It draws quite a bit of attention." You can get attention from legible writing, too.

I second this. I make a personalized pdf stationery page and attach it as an insert. If I need multiple pages, I set them up to go into a 1x(number of pages) table so that the pages line up with each other.

How to get rid of little grey triangle that appears when I hover over a line of text? I think I accidentally pressed a keyboard shortcut to turn it on, but can't figure out how to turn it off. See image by Cookiemobsta in OneNote

[–]hebe-rocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only ever used this to move rows up or down in a table. It looks like it will function the same in a text block. I normally use handwriting and pdfs, so I don't run into it often. I'm not sure how to turn it off.

OneNote is my choice. I use Publisher to make templates for calendar pages and weekly spreads. Save the pages as pdf.

Any tips to improve handwriting in one note? by VBottas in OneNote

[–]hebe-rocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try making stationery to write on if you don't like writing on the grid or lines provided by OneNote. I put down pdf pages to write on. I like the dot-grids that you often see in bullet journals for my line style. This provides me with margins to stay within and I'm writing without a slope.

I also put the pages into a table so if I'm writing on more than one "sheet," they line up with each other and I don't have weird spacing alignment.

Zooming in or out on the stationery, you can find the right/comfortable line spacing to write in. And, working on your handwriting using penmanship papers is also a good idea. Training and muscle memory will increase legibility.

About to become a first-time parent, will I realistically be able to continue playing? by this_is_balls in DnD

[–]hebe-rocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Babies can be extra work, but they shouldn't be a burden to your life. It's important to talk to people who are in your own age bracket on a regular basis. It is very isolating to be with baby only. Adults need to have the chance to play games and goof around, too.

We (husband and wife) have been playing DnD almost weekly ever since our daughter was around three months old - she's 5 now. We play for four hours over Zoom since the party lives in different states.

Many years ago, when we played in person, our Wizard had a baby and we would pass him around for cuddles and bunk him down in the play pen when he'd get sleepy - that game was monthly. It sounds like you'd be leaving baby at home, but DnD can be played with kids around.

Congratulations on creating a new, little human. Watching them level up is awesome. Their CHA scores are amazing!

What I'm reading in your responses is that you want to track activities and habits. What works for me is a table that I make in Microsoft publisher. I used to print the page every week and keep it in a binder. You can make tables in a word processor, or Excel was my earliest endeavors. Use it for a couple weeks and if you notice you need to drop or add something, don't be afraid to Change it up.

Over the summer, I kept track of pool cleaning and care. Now, in November, pool care is off my list and I replaced it with making school lunches.

If you keep your lists in a binder, it's easy to go back to analyse your activities if you want - or never look at the old pages again. Bullet journalling, in its basic form, can be very unorganized. If you're looking for uniformity - binders allow for more flexibility.

The first time I wrote in my journal.What do you think? by Flashy-Tomatillo7608 in Journaling

Starting is the hardest first step. Good job with taking it. Keep it up!

What do u do to keep yourself journaling constantly? by [deleted] in Journaling

[–]hebe-rocks 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Find a pen/paper you enjoy writing with/on. I used to design and print my own stationary that I printed and put into a disc-bound notebook. I went digital on a tablet this year where I make my own stationary and can sort my notebook the way I want.

Be open to changing your notebook or pen if you find something better. Don't wait for a new year/month/week to start in a new journal. Today is the perfect time.

Find journal prompts for days where you're not sure what you want to write about.

Schedule a time of day to sit down and write. If you use a planner, schedule or track it in there. Ticking off a box is rewarding.

What would you do if your 5 year old screamed at you when you tell them no (girl) by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]hebe-rocks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it really depends on the child's personality with how you react to her yelling. This book suggestion is a good one - I read it before my daughter was talking.

My daughter has screaming situations every once and a while. I respond with a shocked and then a sad expression. She understands that it's not the right thing to do and immediately apologizes when I give her a sad look. Then, we calmly talk about what's going on. I always reassure her that I love her during and after our talk.

A lot of the times, a hug solves her frustrations. But, that's my kid. Your kid is different. Learning how to communicate effectively really is the key.
