know how to solve a rubik's cube

After many many hours and swearing i finally have learned to solve. it gives me great feelings in my tummy!

The stickers on the cube faded and I’ve long since thrown it away. So much for that!

I learned how, from a book. As I was working on it, I messed up slightly, with every step, so I had to do them over, and over, and over, and over…you get the idea? After about a week of doing ever single step quite literally hundreds of times, I had it pretty well memorized, and started seeing little work-arounds to make it faster. My best time…was about 30 seconds, because it kind of fell into place, without too much work. My average time, though, is between a minute, and 1:15.
And yeah. It’s always great fun to be sitting in class with nothing to do, and pull one out of your pocket, and start messing with it—there’s always someone there who’ll want to mix it up for you! =]

Definitely worth doing! It’s simple and a lot of fun.

Always wanted to learn, use to be able to solve 2 side when I was a kid. After watching Pursuit of Happyness, I deceided to try again, got one for Christmas.
Fastest time to date now is 2 Min 21 Sec

I can get it down to one face and the middle two rows all the way around. I feel so close!

I could do it very easily and quickly when I was a child. If I only knew what a “gift” it was, I would have worked on that every day not to forget it the way I did. I feel so dumb now…

I’ve learned it, and it’s really fun. All your friends will be amazed, and you will be the star of many anekdotes starting with “you know that crazy cube puzzle? I know someone that can solve it!” I recommend you start today…

Practice getting the first layer solved and the next steps are easy once you learn them. Do each step repeatedly before moving on. This site is perfect:
