RuBisCO
4 billion years of fixing inorganic carbon in the biosphere. Sometimes mistakes O2 for CO2. Not as fast as some enzymes, but very abundant. Here, have some phosphoglycerates about it.

“I bet you right now some writer is working hard on a TV show that’ll mess up this generation’s idea of hacker culture.”
Follow your dreams. You can reach your goals. I’m living proof. Beefcake. Beefcake!
Practice.
Taking notes during lecture helped. Not only does it help cement the information in your mind, it is practice writing legibly enough it can be studied later. You could practice this now, before school starts, by watching something like Khan Academy.
If your major sends you to the whiteboard often, that will help a lot, too. You will naturally improve as you do it out of necessity. Practice on the board until you can write a straight line of consistent text that doesn’t droop or curve down as it goes along.
I second the suggestion for calligraphy in a script you like.
Perhaps practice by trying to quickly write down song lyrics as you listen? I think that’s when I first started to improve.
Pay attention to your classmates who can take good notes quickly. I made a friend who found my writing to be glacially slow, so I watched how they wrote to learn some tricks.
Sorry if some of these won’t help until you’re in, but don’t worry about it too much. I’m sure your handwriting will be markedly improved by the end of even the first year.
p.s.
Write letters or postcards to friends.
Try to fit your favorite quotes on a notecard.
Love it. One example that springs to mind is calling out the NCAA.
“‘Student Ath-uh-letes’? Haha, that is brilliant, sir.”
If Trixie had been packing this thing, that first episode of Deadwood would be a bit different.

Holy shit, the unburned powder on the ballistics gel block!
This one should bookend that rifle with the crazy long barrel they keep sawing pieces off of while monitoring muzzle velocity.
2·2 days agoOh hey! I thought that looked familiar.
The view looking North from Mt Morrison on the solstice.
So when it helps out with a recipe, we won’t get a suggestion specifically for Elmer’s, but rather the IUPAC name for superglue?
Gotcha. Thanks! Do the points P, E, Y, U, and F stand for something or are the letters arbitrary?
5·3 days agoThis really needs to be rescheduled for the winter, and/or pilgrims encouraged to travel by night. But then the AC tents might not sell as well.
Can a TI-84slinger explain this for us pipette-wielders?
7·14 days agoIt seems odd that batteries of a certain size aren’t required to come with an automatic off switch when they reach 100% charge. Some kind of simple gate between the battery and the charging cable.
3·16 days agoNow the body of one soul I adore wants to die
You have always told me you’d not live past 25
I say, stay long enough to repay all who caused strife
Cheers!
