am i putting my overgrip on wrong?

on the TW site, it says to wrap it by pulling it to the write while the racquet is upside down, but I wrap it by pulling ot to the left while it's upsideown. am i putting the overgrip wrong? (I'm a righty.) to clarify, when I finish wrapping my overgrp, the creases slant up to the right, so its like this:

That's lefty. Doesn't it feel weird on your right hand?
 
my racquet grip ( unmodified since i bought it) has the ridges pointing like this :

, but i assumed that it was a lefty, so i wrapped the OG the opposite way.

Why would you assume it was a lefty?
As for the OG, it really doesn't matter which direction you wrap it as long as it's comfortable for you.
 
I have a friend who plays lefty so he had his grip wrapped lefty: |/|
My racket's original grip is righty: |\|

When I played with his racket, the feel is the same but it bothers me every time I look at the grip thus making me conscious when I play.
