Receptions and More Receptions







During my time in Washington D.C I attended more than fifty receptions! Seriously, inside the capitol buildings there is always something going on that has to do with advocacy, food and alcohol.  After work I would go to at least one reception everyday sometimes even two receptions per day. Some of my favorite receptions were the Outback steak house reception, the taco bell reception and the National beer and wine association reception. As part of my internship one of my daily duties was to secure room requests for constituents who requested a room for an event or a reception. The struggle was real when it came to requesting rooms because people all over the U.S are competing for those rooms that are free to the public. There was days when I would spend all day submitting requests!
