Question

I'm new to learning Russian, and was wondering if its considered strange to write in block letter form. My cursive is horrible, and I find it easier to write in block, but dont want to seem wierd.

Well, almost nobody writes in block now, as cursive was heavily emphasised in primary school, so even those whose handwriting simplified with time still show strong signs of cursive training. But really nobody gives a damn about handwriting in Russia, if it's legible then it's okay. If it's not -- you can be assured that it would receive a couple of mild curses (as almost all doctors get constantly) but nothing more.
