So l got busy, and life got crazy, and I forgot to blog for two weeks... So this will be an overview, touching on the highlights and exciting parts of my sixth and seventh weeks in Wellington!
February 5-7
This was a busy weekend! It was packed full of equitation and hunter coverage, and each new day of show coverage makes me fall in love with the sport all over again! I think I'm starting to get good at taking pictures too... always a nice feeling!
February 8-12
Office, office, office, off-day, office... That's how this week went! Ilana and I were in the office super late on Tuesday, so we treated ourselves to Chipotle! The best part was that it was free Chipotle, so splurging on chips and salsa was totally necessary. Thursday Jenna and I grabbed dinner at BurgerFi (I don't usually like sauces, but the BurgerFi sauce is magical) and headed to The Grille for a pre-India Night event! I got to see some pretty cool people and hang out with Jenna and Emily for the night!
February 13
A Saturday well spent! I spent the morning covering two hunter divisions, finished up my work, and headed to the polo fields. The interns were invited to join Chip and a few other people at the 40-Goal Nespresso charity polo game. I learned a little more about polo, saw some of the best players in the sport, and had some delicious food and good times with great friends!
February 14-15
My Valentine's Day morning was spent in the car heading west to see my grandparents in Fort Myers. After I arrived, we hung out at the house, ate some pizza, and my cousin and I headed out to the movies to see The Choice. I am a huge fan of sappy romance movies, but I must say that going to the movies on Valentine's day was not my best idea (note to self). After being treated to coffee and waffles Monday morning followed by The Martian and burgers, I made the trek back to Wellington for another fun week!
February 16-18
After a riveting day in the office Tuesday, I had a day off Wednesday. Ilana and I laid out by the pool and then treated ourselves to Rita's and Trader Joe's splurging. A perfect way to spend the day off. I also got a letter in the mail from my friend Brie on Wednesday, and it brought to tears! It inspired me and reminded me just how great the people in my life are. (#blessed) Thursday night Jenna and I worked during the John Green reelection party held at Mason's home! Ron and Mason have the most beautiful home, it could be right out of a magazine! After the party we went to Lindburgers with the other two interns to support the Salvation Tree (of course we had to order the foot of onion rings... worth it!)
Things I've learned:
1. DO NOT go to the movies on Valentine's day, single or coupled
2. SO many things about polo
3. Chipotle tastes better when it's free
4. I have the BEST people in my life right now and I am so #blessed
5. Getting tan is a marathon... Not a sprint....
