So far, it&#8217;s just the three of us. We&#8217;re now looking for at least two more band members, and we&#8217;re holding auditions. <span id="more-283"></span>I&#8217;m really looking forward to having a full band, so we can finally get started performing.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s important to get someone that&#8217;s not just starting off. My buddies and I have been playing for a while, because we don&#8217;t have time to teach someone how to play the guitar,drums, etc. I may be bias, but I really feel like I&#8217;m the best player in the band so far. I have three guitars, and I&#8217;m always practicing. I&#8217;m actually going to treat myself to a new guitar, once we&#8217;re actually performing with a full band. Guitars can get really expensive, but I never really spent a lot at all. I buy all of my musical instruments from American Music Supply, and everything I&#8217;ve gotten from there has been so affordable. In addition to the low prices, I save even more money by using a <a href="http://www.ripcoupons.com/americanmusical-com/"><strong>American Music Supply Coupon Code</strong></a>.</p>
<p>Just because I don&#8217;t spend a lot on my guitars or any other musical needs, doesn&#8217;t mean that I don&#8217;t get to choose from a lot of different options. I get to choose from a variety of different types and popular brands.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m confident that once we get the rest of our band mates, we will be on our way to becoming a well known band. My dream is that one day, we will be seen in the same great light as <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1683342/adele-rihanna-time-100-influential-people-list.jhtml"><strong>Adele</strong></a> is.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Guest post written by Meghan Call</p>
<p>I read through lots and lots  of home and interior decorating blogs on a daily basis but there are a  few things that I have to keep in mind. A lot of these pictures aren&#8217;t  from actual homes but from rooms that interior designers have staged for  these photos. Plus, these aren&#8217;t exactly made to be kid-proof, that is  unless it&#8217;s explicitly said. So not all of the cool interior ideas I  find exactly translate to our kid-filled home.<span id="more-270"></span></p>
<p>But I&#8217;m determined  to get an ottoman, even if I have to make one myself. So that&#8217;s what I&#8217;m  going to end up doing. But I kind of went into it blindly so I looked  online to get some inspiration and directions. When I was looking for  the perfect DIY ottoman, I found some information on <a href="http://www.homeproimprovement.com/">home improvement</a> that I know will be handy this summer when we get our roof redone.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m so pleased with this one <a href="http://www.sloanbook.com/2011/10/guest-post-diy-ottoman-by-savannah-from.html">DIY ottoman</a> that I&#8217;m currently working on. Let&#8217;s just hope that it ends up looking  like I bought it and this supposedly spill-resistant fabric actually  follows through on its promise.</p>

<p>My buddies and I have been in a band for a while now. We have really just been playing in our garages, and our audience has only been friends and family members. We had years of practice under our belts, and we finally thought we were ready to make a few extra bucks and play for a real audience.  <span id="more-264"></span>We started off at small cafes, and eventually worked ourselves up to bigger venues.We were lucky enough to make a decent amount of money, even when we were performing at the smaller places. Now that we had the extra money, we wanted to treat ourselves to some new instruments. We went to a few local instrument shops, and they didn&#8217;t have much of a selection. The prices were rather high as well, and I knew we could get a better deal.</p>
<p>I searched online, and came across Musician&#8217;s Friend which had a large selection of all of the instruments we needed. We play country music, so we needed a few guitars. There were so many choices, I couldn&#8217;t even decide which was the best for our band. I was able to contact a product specialist by calling the number I found on the website. He was very helpful, and told me about all of the different types.I got a great deal on my acoustic, and I spent less than $100. We got a few new microphones, as we will be needing them for our upcoming concerts. I couldn&#8217;t believe how many choices there were for something as simple as microphones. We figured out which was the best for our needs, and saved even more money on the low prices by using a <a href="http://www.ripcoupons.com/musiciansfriend-com/"><strong>Musicians Friend Coupon Code</strong></a>.</p>
<p>In addition to the guitars and microphones, we were also able to get a ukuleles, which we thought would be difficult to find this less common instrument. My band mate was happy to finally get rid of his 30 year old ukuleles that he had been using. Everyone&#8217;s happy with their instruments, and I&#8217;m sure we will be using Musicians Friend for future instruments.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I think of the top tour of 2011, I would probably think of someone like Beyonce or David Guetta.  It turns out that Taylor Swift had an even more successful tour than those two or any other popular artists. Based on gross ticket sales, Swift really had a successful year. I can&#8217;t blame anyone for thinking Swift is such a successful singer with such great songs. Now that I think about it, I can really understand why she did indeed have such a great tour. The good thing about her is that she can have fans from all different ages, because of the wide variety of songs she has. She can have teenager fans, but also be just as popular with adults.I truly look up to her, and believe she has such a passion for her music.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Guest post from: Kent Lara</p>
<p>My dad loves to give my husband  advice.  When my husband and I were dating, my dad would joke around  with him, telling him what to do and my husband could never tell when he  was joking. <span id="more-259"></span> That turned into a family joke once we got married, and my  dad and husband always joke around with each other trying to get the  other to believe them.  My husband hates to ask my dad for advice on  anything because my dad starts to treat him like the son he never had  and talks to him for what seems like hours about the way he should do  things.  The other day my husband and I were talking about ways to save  money.  I told my husband that my parents were able to save money on  their power bill but I was not sure how.  My husband asked me to call my  dad to ask him about it because he did not want to get into an hour  long discussion about it.  When I asked my dad on the phone, the only  advice he gave me was, “<a href="http://www.texaselectricityproviders.com/compare-electric-companies/">Compare Electric Companies in your area</a>.”   I thought it was hilarious that he did not try to talk my ear off  about it when I know that is what he would have done to my husband.  I  guess that is just the relationship they will always have.</p>

I listen to it when I&#8217;m stressed out, and the music really soothes me. The best part of country music is that there&#8217;s a song out there for any kind of mood I&#8217;m in. In addition to listening to country music to relax me, I also listen to it when I&#8217;m in a good mood as well.  I actually have a playlist on my iPod with country music for different moods I may be in. If I&#8217;m not in the best of moods, I may put on a song and it might even put me in a better mood. One of my favorite country singers is Taylor Swift. Her lyrics are so real, which I love about her. I don&#8217;t like singers who just sing about the good stuff about life, because there are many things in life that aren&#8217;t perfect.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thanks for the post, Vernon Lowe</p>
<p>I had a training today at the board office so I got to sit in a chair all day and listen to someone talk rather than standing in front of my class all day teaching. <span id="more-231"></span>I really don&#8217;t know which one is better! The good thing about training is that we get to actually go out to lunch like the rest of the working world. It was so nice to get to go to a restaurant and eat with my coworkers without students interrupting our lunch asking to go to the bathroom or tattling that someone is throwing food! We had adult conversation that wasn&#8217;t about our students for a solid hour; it was great! My coworker was telling me about how her house got broken into. She said she went into her house and didn&#8217;t even realize that it had been broken in because the house wasn&#8217;t ransacked. They had passed the big screen TV and only stolen one of her husband&#8217;s guns. Needless to say she got a <a href="http://www.homesecuritysystems.com/adt-home-security/Illinois/">Illinois adt security</a>. She called and told them she wasn&#8217;t leaving her house until a system was installed!</p>

The holidays are supposed to be, &#8220;The most wonderful time of the year.&#8221; This could be true if you actually got  gifts that you were happy to receive.<!--more--> I&#8217;m sure there were gifts that you got this year that were less than desirable. Just to name a few horrible gifts that I got this year, there was the oven mitt set, the inflatable chair, and tickets to a Broadway show that I have absolutely no interest in seeing. I truly wondered what my family was thinking when they decided that those gifts would make me happy. Being that I recently turned 21, you would think it would be suitable to maybe give me a gift card to a liquor store, or maybe just an outfit that I can wear to a bar or club. I&#8217;ve only been to a bar/ club about five times since my birthday, so I’m still don&#8217;t exactly have a favorite drink. I did however go to a holiday party on Christmas eve and I told the people I was with to just get me whatever they think I would like, and they brought me pink sangria, Sangria is just a drink with a lot of wine and some fruit. Who knew something so simple could be so good? I had a nice relaxing buzz as Faith Hill&#8217;s slow country song came on, it made me feel  happy and just content. I can say that sangria could definitely be on the top of my to be favorite drinks.  What have I learned from this experience? Next year when I&#8217;m asked what I want for the holidays, I&#8217;m going to ask for that gift card to <a href="http://www.wine.com/">Wine.com</a>.</p>
