Today is my 6th day typing in Colemak. I got to lesson 5 in TypeFaster. Surprisingly, the lessons were actually slow for me than the Heise Test. Other than doing these, I also typed 2 school papers in Colemak. I'm at 33wpm for lesson1, 29wpm for lesson2, and 25wpm for all other lessons. I also typed consistently at 28wpm (3.2 metres) on the Heise Test. I was only doing 33-40wpm (4-5 metres) on qwerty anyway, so I think I am almost back to my original speed.

I can't touch type in qwerty anymore. I keep on pressing capslock for backspace. It is just too convenient! Now I'm back to hunt and peck at qwerty at ~20 wpm.

It's been a few month. I've gotten faster than my qwerty speed. Now I'm at 46 wpm on colemak. It is so much more comfortable too.
