2. Adding __str__() to models

Although it's not a strict requirement, each model should have a ``__str__()``
method to return a "human-readable" representation of the object. Do this not
only for your own sanity when dealing with the interactive prompt, but also
because objects' representations are used throughout Django's
automatically-generated admin.
