And the beat goes on (dada da da)

Second day of classes and I'm already sticking around in the building until 10pm at night. Blah. I shouldn't complain...in two days time I've only had one class. Corsets at that. Too bad We took measruements of ourselves today to alter the patterns with. At the rate I've been moving the last two weeks it may be to big by the time I finish it in March.

I've comminted to a resolution of working out. Yesterday was my first body sculpting class--a basic 45-minute aerobic and strength training class during the lunch hour. My abs are still sore, though I didn't notice until I rolled off of my stomach this morning (I never sleep on my stomach). I attribute the pain in my thighs to the sheer amount of walking I've done in the last week. I discovered it is much easier to walk from school to home than vice versa, and it's quicker than waiting for the bus (half hour verses 45 minutes). I do not believe it is only a mile and a half jaunt--it feels like three by the time I'm home. Mondays and Fridays I have a standing Yoga date with Rebecca, a fellow classmate. Thursdays I was hoping to do the scuplting class again, but alas, that is the only chance I have to watch a dance rehearsal. Man it feels better to move around.

I finally finsihed my project for Lonesome West. The biker jacket out of plaid wool. It's cetianly Ellen's favorite piece out of what she's designed. She didn't even notice the mistery seam that resulted from me needing to cut out a hunk of the garment to replace a welt pocket I cut in the wrong direction. Fabulous job matching the plaids to hide the mistake, don't you think? The concensise is that this coat was the most challenging proejct. It would have been done two days earlier had it not been for the pocket mishap.

Slowly the dance concert is progressing. While one piece is. I may even have some rough sketches for it by next week, but I have yet to here any music. Still, Pari Passu is much further along than the other piece. Unless something miraculous happened during break. Best be getting home. I have to teach makeup design tomorrow.
