It´s fascinating the amount of merchandansing surrounding Transformers

I have it!!! After an hour and a half queuing the last book of Harry Potter is waiting for me on the table

It has been much longer than the queue for the Order of the Phoenix movie and I still don´t know whether it was worth it or not.. but I´ll know it soon enough!

I´ll come back in a while!

Doors are opening…

WaterStones in Oxford Street is finally open!

The queue was really long and the store stayed open for more than two hours, instead of the planned one.

We are finally there! And the children’s cover reminds me of Terry Pratchet´s books..

Some Spaniards disguised as Hogwarts’ students. It seems the queue in Picadilly Circus was spectacular and they decided to try luck in other store.

Last Friday we went to see the last Harry Potter´s movie! It is the darkest of the five released movies and I really enjoyed it, though it didn´t stick so much to the book. It forgets about some important parts of “you know what” and it makes difficult to follow the plot. Anyway, I recommend the movie to all of you, specially now that you won´t see queues as long as the one we had!

To celebrate Bastille Day (French national holiday), we had some special desserts… I know you want me to talk about my project: what am I doing at Google? But sorry, this is the only bad thing.. I cannot tell, it is confidential…

But what I can tell you about is food!! And today desserts have been really awesome! Many different cakes, crêpes, hot apple pie… Just have a look

Back in Spain I had no idea Google had an office in London. I knew of Dublin and Zurich offices, but not London. Since I found out, I have had only one goal in mind: join Google! So I updated my CV following the guidelines provided in their website (although they are meant for students), sent it and started preparing for the interviews!

After three phone interviews, four on-site interviews and four months of recruiting process, here I am! I am a Google intern This position is only available for students and it lasts between three and eleven months, depending on your course, graduation date, etc. In my case, I am gonna be working here for 4 months as an intern and then.. well, we’ll see

The intern process allows you to ask for a full time position after the internship and the decision will be make according to code reviews, reports, interviews, etc. The process depends on your department and location. So far, I’ve had a mid-point review and everything is fine

So.. wish me luck!!
