'''Tip:''' as always, start from the bottom and proceed bottom up to keep time flowing in one direction.
+=== Sat, 5th ===
+
+==== Cinema ====
+
+There's a cinema in building 26 @ EmAiTee, and it's cheap.
+I'm going tonight.
+
+==== Cursious? ====
+
+If you're curious, my room rent is $500 per month. Utilities,
+ forniture and DSL Internet access are included.
+
+It's not cheap, but it's also not too expensive for Boston.
+They told me that only Manhattan is more expensive here on
+the east coast.
+
+==== CurriculumVitae ====
+
+...is almost ready. A friend told me that I'd better have
+also a synthetic resume of 1-2 pages for the impatient.
+I think he's right.
+
+Well, I said I'd be finished by last Monday, but then I
+managed to slip past my own deadline visiting NewYorkCity,
+moving in my current room and in other frivolous ways.
+
+Now I have no excuses: the time has come. Next Monday I
+''will'' write my proposal. Seriously.
+
+=== Fri, 4th ===
+
+==== Exchange Rates ====
+
+Looks like I'd better convert all my money to dollars *now*:

+
+What do you think about it?
+
+
+==== StataCenter ====
+
+I forgot to tell you about the kewlest building in EmAiTee:

+
+==== Fast night ====
+
+After a long time, I finally get to (ab)use MIT's wi-fi and
+barf my short-term brain buffer into my BrainDump.
+
+Tonight we went to an Irish pub next to Kendall, where I got
+to know a few more Ximian employees. I got rumors that
+the famous kernel hacker RobertLove would be there, so after
+a while I turned to the guy next to me and asked: "Is
+RobertLove really going to come?". And he replied: "Speaking."
+
+Another guy told me: "Hi, I'm BAHB". "Pardon?". "BAHB!".
+"What???". Federico promptly helped me out: "Ha detto che si
+chiama BOB :-)"
+
+The beer was good. I discovered that a BlueMoon is the
+nearest approximation of a WeisseBeer I can find here,
+and I'm not at all displeased by its taste.
+
+==== Slow day ====
+
+My landlord has recently switched DSL provider and Internet
+doesn't work any more: the sync light on the modem flashes.
+It seems that crappy ISPs are a common disease in the States
+as well.
+
+Yesterday, he called for service and, finally, they told him
+they would send a tech today from 8AM to 18PM. They refused
+to be more specific. And so I've agreed to wait here to let
+the guy in... I care about it for myself too!
+
+==== Weight ====
+
+By the way, today I'm exactly 150 pounds (use GoogleCalculator
+to get it to SI units).
+
+150 pounds = 68.0388555 kilograms
+
+=== Thu, 3rd ===
+
+==== Roxbury ====
+
+They told me Roxbury is quite an infamous suburb of Boston.
+And my first impression confirms that: shops are uglier,
+parks and streets are somewhat dirtier (but not as much as
+in NewYorkCity!) and, most importantly, some of the neighbors
+look creepy. Especially in the night, streets are crowded by
+people with criminal faces and many homeless.
+
+You know I'm not the type who's easily scared off by a bunch
+of zombies, but I'll feel much better when I'll drive a car.
+
+==== Moving In ====
+
+I've finally settled in my room. There's no need to describe the house
+in detail, as it's the most typical colonial design: two floors plus
+basement, front and back yards, sliding windows, wooden floors
+everywhere. You've come to know them very well from the movies.
+
+Today I went to the mall to gather the essentials: a blankets,
+a pillow case and some bath towels. The bed is comfortable and
+I was quite tired already, therefore I fell asleep early in the
+evening and kept on until 8 AM.
