Rubik's Cube

YH loves to play Rubik's Cube. I used to play with one when I was small. All the memories that I have on the Rubik's cube is, it was a multi-coloured cube and to solve it, we gotta arrange each faces of the cube with the same colour. I can say that I have never solved one before. Not even getting one of its 6 faces to be in the same colour.

I always thought that there is only one type of Rubik's cube, the common 3 X 3.
But when YH came back from US, he bought 2 new ones which is the 2 X 2 and a 4 X 4.

Actually it is quite challenging trying to solve the Rubik's cube. There is a lot of tactics and steps that you need to remember for different kind of situations. If you are interested to know more about Rubik's cube, you can go to the Rubik's Official Online Site. There, you can get to know more about this magnificent cube, learn how to solve the cube and there is even an online forum where you can discuss the magic of this cube.

And it is amazing to know that some people can actually solved the cube within seconds and there are some whom can actually solve it blindfolded!!!!!..*clap* *clap*.

As for me, no matter how hard YH tried to teach me the tactics, I still cannot remember them and sad to say, I can't even solve it till today. I think I enjoy looking at the colours rather than squeezing my brain to solve it.....

So which one do you like? :)
