Today, I was having the best 6x6 solve ever, after f2l I realized I messed up color scheme, I finished the solve with messed up color scheme, would have been a 2:58.xx, would have been first sub-6. FMCL

Ok, just remembered this, and I thought I would share it.
At NZ champs, first round, I did my solves, got 12.55 avg (bleh), and then proceeded to judge Dene and others.
On the 3rd? solve, I saw a massive block of green, which turned out to be a 1x1x2, plus a cross edge. It was a 4 move X cross.
Apparently my cube was scrambled wrong, and I wasn't allowed to do the solve with the correct scramble.
When I was scrambling for everyone else, I tried out the 3rd scramble, and got an 8.5x.

I was on the verge of getting my first sub-7 average on my 5x5 after having it just a month. And on top of that, all the solves were sub-7 and I had a nice sub-6. Last solve of 5 and I went slow on the centers, screwed one of them during tredge matching, but fixed it quickly. I started the cross and glanced up at the timer. I had 10 seconds to make it if I wanted sub-7. I tried and tried, solving faster than I normally solve my 3x3. I wound up with an L -> Sune -> PLL SKIP. 7:27.08 FMCL

I was standing in the hallway talking to some friends who were asking me stuff about the World Championship. They asked what my best event is right now so I was telling them it was probably 2x2 because I had a bunch of sub 3 averages the day before. One of them asked to borrow my 2x2 to try it out, I didn't let him because I didn't want to risk it getting broken. A few seconds later an idiot comes by and jokingly wacks the cube out of my hand and it hits the ground hard and breaks. I don't have another cube nearly as good and WC is in 2 weeks and 2x2 is the only thing I've been practicing for the past month.

2 stories- first
I had my Es 5x5 at school and I was letting people play with it. I tightened it periodically so it wouldn't pop. I let one more person play with it and my frind who is into cubing said watch her break it... She did FMCL
second
I was in latin class doing 2x2 while one girl filmed on her cell phone and my cube-interested did 20 move scrambles while looking away from the cube. I did a few 9.xx and around 14.xx I got a lucky scramble and I solved in 3.56 sec. Huge PB. She wasn't filming FMCL
