In order to help you out we will need to see some "baby pictures" 
(what kind of orchid is it? Do you have a name tag?)

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box. ...Hmmm?  .

Always wise to repot a new plant, gives you a chance to examine the root system. what is the humidity like where you live? That will affect how quickly your potting medium will dry. Low humidity- choose a slower drying medium, high humidity- select something that drains and dries rapidly.
