My wife and I now listen to the BP podcasts instead of music whenever we have a decent drive in head of us.

I am a 21 year old graduate student at the Berklee college of music campus in Valencia, Spain.

My husband owns a music school in Westchester County and has been researching locations in Bergen to open another one.

Musical chairs comes to mind.  

More on this later.c) Make sure I have clipboards and pens.d) Make sure I have a blank sample of a lease (its required in my area to have this available to applicants before they fill out an application).e) Business cardsBefore the Showinga) If it's my first showing, I'll arrive a while before hand to set up the showing items.Visual - shower curtain liner, towels and hand soap in the bathroom, vases of fake flowers around the place in pleasant colors.Auditory - I use Pandora radio to play classical music at a soft volume.Olfactory - I place Air Wick air fresheners in apple cinnamon scent in one or two places in the unit.If it's not my first showing, I will have left these items there so I don't need to do this step more than once.b) Sweep, vacuum, or mop. 

I haven't tried listening while working out, I need that pump me up music to get me thru killer workouts.
