hey guys! This has been one week of me learning CLL. Everyday I'm actually writing saving a post as a draft. Here's what I learnt throughout the week.
Day 1: I decided to start on Sunday, and gather all the resources on Saturday. The resources I'm using are
Trainer Yu and
Cyotheking's website for algs. On the first day, I decided to learn the sune set first. There's 6 cases in the subset, and my goal is to learn all those cases before Friday, as I'm going on a trip from Sunday to Monday. The first alg I learnt was... the normal sune. I knew the alg so I decided just to practise the recognising it and going on trainer yu. But I ran into a common problem. ALL THE CASES LOOKS THE SAME. But thankfully, I used
cyotheking's tutorial for recognising them and how to differentiate them. And may I praise Chris Olson for making really helpful tips and videos! I would definitely recommend his videos and website for learning 2x2.
Day 2: It was a monday that I decided to learn two cases. These cases had the shortest algs, so I learnt them. I learnt them pretty fast in like about 10 minutes to get them into my head. I spammed the algs to get them into muscle memory. I headed to trainer yu, and at the start I sucked at identifying the case and executing it with the right alg. I kept using the wrong alg for the wrong case! I decided to take a break cus it was making me really mad. I then tried to practise, and I must say, it was coming in my head slowly.
Day 3: It was a tuesday that I learnt only one alg. The afternoon was mostly spending time recognising the case and using the right alg. This day felt really great since I ended up with a solved cube. I spent my day just training the algs I learnt this week. The alg I learnt was somewhat easy, and recognition is getting easier. I'm more focused on actively recalling the alg and finishing with a solved cube rather than getting a fast time.
Day 4: It's a wednesday that I finished almost all the cases! On this day, I have wrote days 1-4. I was suppose to finished the sune set on this day, but I was pretty busy, but I was able to learn one alg today.
Day 5: It's a thursday! I finished ALL THE CASES IN THE SUNE SET!!!!! Pretty happy I achieved my goal of learning the sune set before friday. I'm planning on just using trainer yu the whole day and time the cases. For days 6 and 7, I'm planning on learning the "
H set" since there's only 4 cases. My goal now for days 6 and 7 is
to learn the "H set" in 2 days. Pretty easy goal, learn 2 algs for days 6 and 7. On days 6 and 7, I'm also timing the cases for the sune set so I can get comfortable.
Day 6: yay it's a friday! I'm still training my algs, cus now that I learned the sune set, I'm getting used to executing them with the right alg. The only problem is that it takes about 1-3 seconds for me to recognising the case. My execution is pretty okay though. I was really busy the whole day, so I didn't have time to learn two algs from the H set.
Day 7: I'm planning on learning all the algs from the H set! Hopefully I can do it! Here's my ao12:
