Anyway, teaching myself how to solve these cubes and finding out speed tricks for them has taken a lot of time, but it pays off and they are really fun to solve.

Rubiks Cube
Well, in my 2014 summary I mentioned that I was into Rubik's cubes. So I would like to blog about that. Oh and in 2014 swimming was AWESOME!!! I set plenty of new times and had a ton of fun, especially because now I'm in a much higher training group than before. Anyway, I have an interest in cubes now and I expect to keep it. I own and know how to solve the following puzzles: 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 5x5, and the 3x3 Void. Now the Void may confuse you. It is the same as a 3x3, except that it has no centers. The centers on a cube mark the color of that side and cannot change positions. The Void, with no centers, is harder because you don't know what side to build your colors on, and results in a very hard solve. With the 4x4 and 5x5, you have to build the centers out of center pieces, and then build your edges, while on the 3x3, that's already done for you. If you would like to see me solve these puzzles, I have videos on my YouTube channel (CubeTuber) where you can watch me solve them in time-lapse or real time. I encourage you to subscribe to that channel.

Having seen you work hard to figure these out I know how difficult but enjoyable it was for you. Set goals, achieve them. Keep up the good work!
