Does anyone know how to center my blog name?

Correction....

For some reason my math teacher didn't give me credit for the extra credit problem, which I got right, so I actually got 100%!!!!

Good News

I got a 93% on my math test. To me this is a big deal and I am happy about it.


The End.

How Guy #2 in My Math Class Relates to Both of the Savages

Avid readers of this blog will remember a post about the two idiot guys in my math class. Well, they are still idiots, but today I learned that Brandon works with one of them: Guy #2 whose name is Andy. On Tuesdays and Thursdays Brandon will walk me to my class and since he has an hour break until his next class he usually just studies in the building that I have math. Today we got out early and when I found Brandon I saw Guy #2, Andy, talking to him! Brandon introduced us and mentioned how we both have math together, we said hello, and then Andy had to go. I then told Brandon that Andy is one of the guys I told him about and I asked how he knew him. He told me they work at Panda Express together and he is about to become the assistant manager! Brandon says even though he seems like an idiot in math he is a hard worker at Panda Express.

At least he isn't as bad as Guy #1, then again when Brandon saw him come out of the classroom he told Andy how I was in his class and somehow mentioned that the course is 1020 to which Andy replied, "Oh I thought it was 1010." That ladies and gentlemen is Brandon's future superior.....

Our Temporary Roommate

This is my friend Janet LeBaron, currently her room at her apartment flooded and is growing mold. While all of this gets worked out and fixed she is living with us. It has been fun cause we have always wanted to live together but it just never worked out. Actually, Janet, Brandon, and I have always joked around that we are like JD, Turk, and Carla from Scrubs and now we actually feel like that since we have our JD living with us. 

Boys in my Math Class

Before I get to this blog post I want to say I got kind of bored with the music thing (I lasted so long right?) Maybe every now and then we will post the next day so it just won't be 30 days in a row. Now on to this story......

So I sit in front of these guys in my math class who basically talk to one another the whole time. It is really annoying but I have learned to tune them out because I like sitting up front because I pay attention better and there aren't any other seats in the front I can take. Sometimes I hear their conversations and I just think they are idiots but today I heard their conversation before class and well to me it is kind of funny so I decided to share it.......

Boy 1: So there is this girl who is obsessed with me but I don't like her cause she is only borderline cute. I don't want to be mean though and tell her I am not interested so what I am going to do is tonight there is this thing she invited me to and I am going to go and bring another girl with me. So there are these two really hot girls and I am trying to decide which one to ask. Which name sounds hotter Tiffany or Nia?

Boy 2: Nia is a hotter name.

Boy 1: Okay then I am going to ask her.

Boy 2: Wait why can't you just tell this girl you aren't interested?

Boy 1: Cause I am a really sensitive guy and I don't want to hurt her.



.................yeah..............

Day 6: California Songs!

Today's theme is songs that remind us somewhere. Brandon and I picked two different songs, but what they have in common is they remind us of California. Mine is "Get to Me" by Train and the reason why it reminds me of California is my sisters, my Dad, and me would listen to that CD a lot when we would travel (mostly to California). Brandon's song is "I'm Still a Guy" by Brad Paisley. It reminds him of the month he lived in California, he heard it for the first time when he was moving to his apartment:

Day 5: Songs that Remind Us of Someone

Dana: For my song I decided I would pick a song that reminds me of someone else besides Brandon. Not that I don't love Brandon, but I just wanted more of a challenge because it is easy to pick a song that reminds me of Brandon.

For my song I picked "Invisible" by Clay Aiken, which reminds me of Aubrie Hopper. First off I just want to say that I think this is the creepiest song and I really am not a huge fan of Clay Aiken but this song does bring back good memories. Aubrie and I had this tradition that whenever we were having bad days or just frustrated with guys we would buy strawberry gummies and sobes. We then would consume them and talk. One of the first times we did this we were listening to Clay Aiken and for some reason we decided to make up a dance to "Invisible." I think we only had to listen to the song like twice to come up with the whole dance. For some reason we showed it to our friends and they thought it was funny so when they would ask we would perform it. We were so cool:

Brandon: He picked the song "Can You Tell" by Ra Ra Riot. His brother Jeff introduced it to us last Thanksgiving and we have loved the song ever since. The song reminds him of me. Also the music video is awesome:

Day 4: Songs that make us Sad

Dana and Brandon: We don't agree on a song that makes us sad, but the reason why I am just combining us instead of writing two explanations is we both love the songs that makes us sad. The reason why they makes us sad is just the lyrics mostly. They aren't happy songs. The song that makes me sad is "Hide and Seek" by Imogen Heap and the song that makes Brandon sad is "The War was in Color" by Carbon Leaf:

Day 3: Songs that Make Us Happy

Dana: One of the songs that make me the most happy it's kind of ironic that it does. It is "The First Single" by The Format, even though some of the lyrics are kind of depressing the tune and music to it just makes me so happy. Also the music video is just so random that it makes me happy also.

Brandon: The song that makes him happy has a story behind it. I love this story, but I am warning readers now that it is a little bit sappy. Still I love it and the story makes me happy.

When Brandon came back from his mission he just wanted to date around. He decided his theme song was "I Don't Wanna Be in Love." A few months after being home though he was dropping a girl off from a date. Afterwards he was listening to the radio and the song "Say it Again" by Marie Digby came on. He decided he wanted to find someone and be in love, he was tired of dating around. About two months later we met and after a bit when he would listen to the song he would think of me and he knew he was in love with me, which made him happy. The song still makes him happy:

I hope we aren't being to annoying by doing this, but then again by looking at the stats of how many visits we are getting we have been getting more views on our blog daily. Who knows maybe we are introducing people to new music that they might like. However, if any of you guys starting like the music from Day 2 we have officially failed.

Day 2: Songs We Hate

Dana: I know some people might like me less for hating this song, but oh well. I cannot stand the song "My First Kiss." I just hate it so much and I can't really explain why:

Brandon: Okay so we both hate this song a lot. However, Brandon hates this song so much that he didn't want me to post it on our blog he doesn't "want our blog associated with such garbage." I am posting it anyways because I think people need to be aware of how terrible this song is. It is "I'm Awesome" and it is not awesome:

Music! Day 1

So this was on my good friend Natalie's blog and I thought it might be fun for Brandon and I to do. Yes, maybe all we will accomplish during this experiment is just annoying everyone but oh well, it gives us something to do. So for the next 30 days we have to post songs pertaining to the day's theme:

Dana: So for today I will obviously post my favorite song. It really didn't take me long to think of it, the song is "Rock & Roll" by Eric Hutchinson, which Natalie actually introduced me to. This song always makes me happy and I don't think I could ever get sick of it:

Brandon: He likes the song "This Town" by Of A Revolution (O.A.R.):

A dream happening possibly sooner than later :)

I have played the violin for 10 years and for a while I have always wanted to teach lessons. I'm the type of person that I need to work or I feel useless and since I was about 15 or so I always hoped that when I started having kids I could start teaching lessons on Saturdays.

Well today my friend Janet and I went to lunch and for some reason we started reminiscing about being in symphony. While talking about this I mentioned to her how someday I want to teach lessons. She then asked me, "How would you feel about starting that sooner than later?" It turns out our friend Autumn, who teaches a music class at a charter school and who is Janet's roommate, was recently asked by a mother of one of her students if she would be willing to teach her daughter violin. Autumn has some experience with violin but she doesn't think she has enough to teach someone. That night she asked Janet if she would be interested and Janet said no because even though she loves to play she doesn't like to teach. Janet asked me if I would be interested and I of course said yes! She is going to tell Autumn this and Autumn will tell this lady that she found someone who could teach her kid.

I really hope all of this works out because it would be amazing if I could start doing this. I'll keep you posted if anything happens.
