My name is Sean and my eighth grade buddy is Brian. I got my name because Sean is Irish for John. Sean means "Lord is gracious." My parents couldn't decide whether to use my grandfather's first or middle name for my middle name, so they used both - Robert Aloysius. My buddy, Brian, was born in Memphis, Tennessee and he is from Atlanta, Georgia. One of the things that is important to him is sports such as swimming, tennis, and basketball because he enjoys playing and watching them since they are exciting and are good for you. Some of his favorite projects are in math because it is fun and useful in the present and future.
