LOL. very high school, right? i don't know. i was browsing my yearbook right after dinner and i was tryng to remember those days. before, cellphones and email addresses weren't present. so, telephone is the only way you can communicate with friends. while talking, i remember scribbling some smiley faces. taking notes on their quotes and etc. lol. imagine how messy my hand during those midnight. i remember right after dismissal, we would always walk up to this private school for boys. i was not up for it really but as a "very supportive and loyal friend", i would support my friends whoever it is that they crushing to. and whenever a guy introduces himself, my friends would just scribble her digits into the guy's hand. according to them, it's "effective flirting". LOL. nostalgic, am i. anyways... i hope you could share it to me if you still write on your hands. lol. i still do it sometimes - but only when i can't find paper to write it into. that's where my hand substitutes. =) =)

I do on occasion jot down telephone numbers and so on - but less now I have my trusty mobile. My kids are always coming home with their hands covered in scribbles - generally, when it's maths test day!

I remember history tests at school - I used to jot down all the dates I knew I wouldn't remember on my palms, and then sneak a peak. Of course, none of it made any sense, which is probably why I flunked my finals. According to me, the Gettysburg address probably took place in 1066, lol!

Hey there! No, I don't write notes in my palm anymore. I use my cellphone to write important notes and contacts. It's easier and convenient. I don't like writing anything in my palm because it's dirty. Before, when I was in high school we use to write answers on our palm. codego.lol I remember we don't open our fists till we get to the restroom to wash our hands.lol Have a nice day. Happy posting!!

Yes, I write on my hand. It drives my husband crazy. He says I am teaching my kids a bad habit. If I remember something I need to do or add to my shopping I will write it on my hand instead of writing it on paper. Its easier then searchig for a notepad. Or if I am bored I will doodle on my hand.

Hi there! I wish I did not do this, but yep, I still write on my hand in an emergency, and it makes my Husband nuts for some reason! I just know that if I need to write down a quick phone number or something I can jot it on my hand and I will transfer it to paper if I need to, or just run and call it on my cell phone!

Hi, totallyundecided! The only time that I will write in my hand is when it is a spur of the moment thing.. It will be every blue moon.. I hardly ever do this, but I can't say that I never haven't. I have, but just a few years back.. I seem to find something old to write on. Or I may remember it..

Actually I had stopped doing this for a while. But I recently went back to work at the hospital and I write on my hands daily. When you take someones vitals or a Dr. barks out an order real quick sometimes it is easier to just jot it down on your hand until you reach your notes or the computer. And one quick squirt of hand sanitizer and poof it's gone!
