Photo Essay about C.P.

  My cast puzzle life meets with my GLPS life. I go there for one month, or four weeks! I am bored to go without my puzzle, so I took some puzzles. I took three of them, but, relating to this, I will indicate my feelings compared by cast puzzles. Each puzzle shows my different feelings, and I chose the puzzles that shows my feelings.

Cast Harmony

(From puzzlemaster.ca)
  This is a cast puzzle called harmony. I found that this is a new puzzle that is released in 2012. It is a quite easy puzzle, not hard. But this puzzle states my happy mind. A golden clef and a silver 8 note is hanged each other, and as you solve it, it makes you quite happy. People sing a song when they are happy, usually. These musical notes make a puzzle, and states my 'happy mind.'

Cast NEWS
(From puzzlesolver.com)
  This is a cast puzzle called NEWS. I have found out that this puzzle is a trick puzzle, which I have to find the answer of this puzzle by my own. I have once looked at the answer and then regretted; because it had a simple answer. I must not have seen it! This puzzle states my dizzy mind. Think of a very hard math problem. It makes your mind dizzy and cannot control your minds. But, actually, they might have a very simple answer.  Same to this cast puzzle news. It states my 'dizzy mind.'

Cast Equa
(From brilliantpuzzles.com)
  This is a cast puzzle called equa. It really looks like a space-like thingy that when the outer thing turns, the smaller inside thing turns separately. This puzzle is very very hard. It is quite famous of the hardness. It is level 5, but not level 6. I never solved this puzzle, but I have to put the little two rings out of the Y shaped body. This puzzle states my 'blocked mind'. When I am sad, I block my mind sometimes and play alone, at home. I am blocked in the big sadness, which is the two rings blocked in the Y shaped body. I then have a hard time putting my mind out of the sadness, which is putting the two rings out of the Y shaped body. So this hard puzzle states my 'sad mind.'

Cast Duet
(From articulo.mercadolibre.com.ar)
  This is a cast puzzle called duet. It is taking out two identical rings out of the nine-holed metal thing. But I have to take out each of the rings differently. This states my life with my best friend. I have a best friend who I met him at first grade in Elementary school. We went to several places each other such as Caribbean Bay, skiing course, mud pension, camping car site etc. Our mothers are friends, too, because they are in the same age. But we like different things. This states the different ways to put out each ring. They go out in the same exit, but the way of putting each of them is quite different. My friend and I liked different things and often fight, but always at the last, we have the same mind; friendship. And this means the same exit! So this puzzle states my friendship.

Cast Donuts
(From mechanical-puzzles.blogspot.com)
  This is a cast puzzle called donuts. Wow, it looks yummy! A golden doughnut and a silver doughnut is attatched each other and seems not to fall out. This states my hungry mind. Doughnuts are very sweet, but when I am going to solve this puzzle, it will be very hungry. So this puzzle states my hungry mind, and the puzzle looks yummy. Wow.

Cast Marble
(From www.grand-illusions.com)
  This is a cast puzzle called marble. This puzzle is solved very uniquely. If you position the marble in a specific shape, the puzzle turns and there comes two marble pieces and two square shapes down to the ground. It TURNS. One of the square shape just turns from the other and falls out. This states my surprised mind. This puzzle's solution is very surprising, because people don't know how to take these pieces out. So this surprising puzzle states my surprising mind.

Cast Medallion
(From mechanical-puzzles.blogspot.com)
  This is a cast puzzle called medallion. It is a limited edition of all cast puzzles. It is a big puzzle, and hard to solve; there are golden maze plates on the front and the back, and two gray medals. You have to put the four pieces out by moving both two mazes at the front and back. This states my conflicting mind. I want to do two things, but actually one thing is only available. I conflict inside my mind, and choose one at the last. These two minds states the two mazes, and choosing the thing is solving this puzzle! So this states my conflicting mind.

  I stated seven cast puzzles compared to my seven minds. Harmony-happiness, NEWS-dizziness. Equa-sadness, Duet-friendship. Donuts-hungryness, Marble-surprised mind, and Medallion-conflict! Wow, cast puzzles are great and could even state my mind! So this was my 7-photo essay.
