Orchid-challenged

Hello!

My name is Jennifer. I recently started a new job and my family sent me an orchid on my first day. I have no knowledge of orchids, nor most plants really, but I really love this one and I would like to keep it alive, and hopefully, thriving. I've been told to water it occasionally-once a week. I've only had it two and a half weeks. When I received it, there were lots of buds. On Monday of the second week however, I came to work and my orchid was looking very sad. Many of the buds had turned yellow/orange and dropped onto my desk. The green isn't looking as vibrant, and there are new buds sprouting, but they are yellow. Is this normal? I have no clue. It just doesn't look as good as it did before and I'm worried it won't last the month. Please help!

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Jennifer
