Brighton Beach - Rachel Van Deventer

This weekend was great!

On Friday I had a meeting at Dunnhumby, where I will begin my internship in March. I am beyond excited to be working there, I am nervous because they do a lot of computer programming but the way that they analyze and interpret data is so interesting to me. My managers and mentor seem very helpful and excited to teach me how the company works. I cannot wait to start!

On Saturday 12 of us traveled to Brighton, England. It was an hour train ride to the south eastern coast of the UK. The beach was awesome but VERY windy. We had fun exploring Brighton and going to different pubs. We stayed in a creepy hostel with other people but we were happy to have somewhere to sleep after being out all day long. We played board games at one pub and danced the night away at a club. I finished the night off with some onion rings and a taxi ride home. This morning we ate the free breakfast (toast) and retraced our steps to find some lost items. We finished the day on Brighton Pier which was covered in carnival rides. I rode the biggest and scariest ride they had so that I could make a memory and the view wasn't bad either.



After catching the train home, Jonathan, Piper, and I went out to enjoy the Chinese New Year festivities! I had some authentic Chinese food and got to enjoy the diversity of London. For now, I am SOOOOOO tired. I am going to bed early and resting so that I can finish the last week of statistics strong!
