Preparing for the talk tomorrow

I woke up at 3 PM. In order to freshen me up, I got out of the hotel.

I walked up to the South Station.

  

  

The station is preserved neatly. There were a lot of food shops inside.

I bought two pieces of pizza and a sprite.

In the middle of the station was a bookstore. It looked classic and very nice.

  

Then I walked back to the hotel.

After coming back to the hotel, I started working on my presentation, which was chosen as a plenary talk, my first one in my career.

I brought two computers, because my PowerPoint file for the presentation, with many videos attached, worked differently (and strangely) on those computers; I tried to compromise the effects with using the two.

I ordered a room service of bowls of clam chowder and cereal with banana and blue berries. I kept working.

It was a tiring job. At 2 AM, I found out the reasons of the malfunctions of the PowerPoint file;  the file is too big for the old computer and too old for the new computer with a new OS.  I finally figured out to modify the file bit by bit.  I finished the presentation file at 6 AM.

  

I sent a short note to Katya.

Then I started constructing the talk.  I worked till 8 AM.
