It's been about two months since my last post and since I was a complete beginner. Now I've made some nice progress 9kyu KGS, 13+ on IGS.

I've just been playing lots of games, mostly, doing a few tsumego here and there. But I plan on doing Cho's L&D 1-3 at a timely pace.
-About 30 tsumego a day
-work through Tesuji - James davies
-Look through Attack and defence
-Play lots of games like usual :p

Welcome, nyuubi! (Clever name by the way. Are you studying Japanese?) It is really useless at this point for me to comment on the game, because there are too many mistakes, and many of them you will stop making on your own before too long. No worries, this is quite normal. As for books, I would recommend 1001 Life and Death Problems, but the best thing you can do right now is just continue to practice playing. Just try to pay attention to when your stones are in danger, and don't let them lose too many liberties.

That you thought an average 2 sec by move, which makes the game not really worth reviewing...

I'm not asking for a review, I just said 'what do you guys think?' as In what do you think about 5-5 opening, for example.

I've played it a couple of times at my local go club, where most members are around 5k - 7k. It leads towards a moyo game, with some fights. I tend to prefer 7-7 for this purpose.
