First of all, the gym. I went yesterday, because I feel like I should keep up what I started this semester with rugby and kickboxing. The plan is to go 3 maybe 4 times a week, and since my schedule is pretty open I think I can do this, I am also working on figuring out a decent work out that won't have me want to kill myself half way through but still gives me a work out. If anybody has any comments feel free to add them, I don't know much about these things and thus I am trying to learn. Mon-Wed-Fri, one hour after work, 30 minutes on the elipticals, and then working on the machines. The muscle groups I want to work on is stomach and core, back and shoulders. Possibly also chest, since that ties in with shoulders. Since I am big busted I have had problems in the past with my back muscles not being able to fully support my upper body weight and thus putting presure on my spine, not comfortable, let me tell you.

I also started proper work on the corset last night. The pieces have been pinned to the fabric and I will cut the fabric today, maybe also seal the edges. I got inspired again, by reading corsetmakers  posts. Since it has been requested pictures will be taken. I also have a couple of other corset ideas, among others an underbust with cable ties, because I really want to test that as boning. Other than that the half of the room that I am not using have turned into a craft station, and as long as I keep it neat I can take it down in minutes, in case they toss a room mate at me. Which I hope not. If anybody has any desire to hang out and chat while doing crafts, feel free to drop by.

Speaking of rooms, I am now out of Ziskind for good. It feels weird not walking up the stairs to the third floor and thinking about the fact that I now officially need someone liviing in the house to escort me around. Strange how things are changing. I thought about little things, like the fact that for the last three years I got a favorite bathroom stall and used pretty much only that one.

This summer I am working a research job here at Smith and it is quite strange I have to say, I am used to more structured work and I am still getting used to this. I am also the newbie on the team and it feels like everyone else knows more than I do. And some of the projects for this summer plain old scare the shit out of me, and others are better suited for people with the appropriate background.
