I don't really like playing this that much now because every time I make a mistake I want to start over. It just ends up being a lot of cursing...

Mmm... I've been on computers almost constantly since about thirteen. Sometimes they would break. I'd be without for a few months. I never really wrote much until lately, just a lot of text messaging over IM and such...

What really helped me improve my typing speed is continously practicing. Once I reached an average speed of 35 I started typing without looking. It almost always feels like I am going to mess up but i normally don't.
