Hey everyone,
I hope that the summer is treating you well. I am currently writing to you from an offsite adventure. Google plans many of these for their employees so they can bond. We have another one planned in a few weeks, but unfortunately I am not sure if I will be able to attend that one - it is the day after my internship ends :(.
Speaking of my internship, here is an update on my project:
1. I have two weeks left :'-(
2. I have been testing my code and have seen that I can actually submit nodes with session data.
3. Next week I am supposed to present my project to the other Googlers in my building.
4. I do not currently have a demo, but I am working on the UI. I may be able to have a working demo if I can finish the UI and get my code to interact with a demo server by next Wednesday. But, it will be a close one, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
In other news, I was chosen to be a Google Campus Ambassador , so I will be missing two days of my internship to fly to California. Once there, I will get the chance to meet other ambassadors and learn about how we can help Google meet students on our campuses.
I am getting really sad about going home. I will miss Google and everyone who works here so much. Plus I am not looking forward to massive amounts of homework again!
That pretty much sums up how my internship has been going. I have been really happy with the progress. I've learned so much about C++ and about the Google development environment.
As my internship is coming to an end, I will have an interview soon to determine whether or not I'm a candidate to be converted to a full-time employee. I'm nervous about it, but also excited. I would really like to work for Google full-time and I’m interested to see what team I would be placed on if I do get an offer. I'm hoping that I did a good enough job on my project to get a good review, but I also wish I had been able to get more accomplished.
I'm getting really sad about leaving my team. I feel like we have all bonded so well. They are all so interesting, unique, funny and friendly. I do not really want to say goodbye to them. Maybe if I come back full-time I’ll be able to work with them again!
Random Google Fact: Everyday at 3:00 the cooking staff brings the Seattle Googlers a snack. On Mondays they bring cookies and veggies. On Tuesdays, they bring scones, jam and butter. Wednesdays we have a yummy cheese platter with fruit and crackers. Thursdays, they bring chocolate fondue with fruit, dried fruit, chips and pretzels, and on Fridays we meet a bit later. Fridays are special. We get together around 4:30 and socialize with restaurant style appetizers, drinks and games.
Google is a pretty special place. Hope that you all will get a chance to visit a Google office at some point if you have not already. Magical things go on inside those walls, and I'm so appreciative I've been able to be a part of it.
