So my site update is almost complete, I won’t go into details what I still want to change but I’ll tell you there are going to be some ads some places. (and if you want some feel free to contact me ;) ) Now for some other stuff to talk about.
I’m going to the Indiana Open 2010! So far some amazing and experienced cubers have registered including Mike Hughey, Dave Cambell, and Dan Cohen combine that with the event lineup it looks like it’ll be fun. I’ve never been to a so inland competition (or maybe not, it might actually be the 2nd most) before so I’m really looking forward to it, February 27th add it to your calendar (only if you’re in the area, don’t feel obliged to go to this competition if you reside in southern California you guys have a higher volume of amazing cubers there anyway I don’t know why you would want to compete anywhere else). Gotsta practice lots now.
School is keeping me busy here, and my free time is accidentally put towards Hulu, some video games, and Fireball Island (there is nothing else like that board game around). I’m also in a video production class, so maybe you’ll see some stuff I’ve done with that in the future. Finally: at this point I nor the others have any plans for the FiveAwesomeCubers.

Actually it was designed in 2008 but that’s beside the point. I’m getting a little tired of using Hypatia Sans for everything. And so Helvetica comes to the rescue! I think, below is a little mock up of the site’s new logo.
I don’t know if I will actually use it or not. I don’t even know if I will redesign or not, I’ve done at least a dozen sketches of what I would like it to be, time is precious though and I’ve recently discovered my school’s media lab where there are electronic keyboards plugged into Macs. The music you’ve been hearing in my FiveAwesomeCubers videos is from that.
Before I end this post big thanks to everyone who has been wishing me luck here in college, it’s been very pleasant so far, thank you.

So to start off with the big one,I graduated from High School on Thursday the 21st. It was pretty cool, I feel no different now, I’ll be attending college soonish. Which leads me to telling you where I’m going: Earlham College, in Richmond, Indiana. So that’s going to be awesome, but what I think will be even better is how close I’ll be to Cincinnati, home lots of things but most importantly for me: the annual Cincinnati Open! That will be ill to go to that when I can. I’m sure there are lots of other competitions I’m overlooking, but I’ve heard great things about that competition and I hope they’re still doing that.
Also, I got a Twitter. It would be lovely if you could all follow me on that as I will be using primarily to give updates about videos and surprise broadcasts that I do out of nowhere. Odd stories getting it though, I filled out the “New Account” form three times (it’s like 5 questions: real name, desired username, password, email, and a captcha), two of those times I completely deleted the form, in fear of getting a Twitter account. For the same reason that I don’t want an xbox 360 because of how addicted I get to doing pointless achievements, I was afraid that I would Tweet my meals and when I would be in my car. It’s nothing like that for those of you who also have second thoughts about getting a Twitter.
And to end this update, the booklet/pamphlet/guide I briefly showed in my most recent video is almost done, and I can’t wait to release it, I just need to test it a lot more on people, work out the kinks. The end.

I don’t know why I haven’t posted a video in a while, perhaps it’s because I’m so close to finishing High School (4 days left at the time of writing). I think that that the little time left has affected the way I work my overall as well as my creative will to do so. Well that’s about it, just a small update then, honestly I was hoping this would be longer.
