How do I take care of my parakeet? How do I befriend it in the quickest way? How do I get it to trust me?

I have two parakeets, one named Chidori one named Chidoryuu. Sept. 20th 2007 was the day I took them home. Ane here, I thought I’d be having a great time with them on the first day, polaying, screaming together, and annoying my mother (teehee) and so on. But they don’t even trust me! They yell at me everytime I try to get my hand into the cage. I tried everything, putting food in my palm, whistling until my throat went dry, everything. But they won’t let me approach them. I really want to become friends with Chidori-chan and Chidoryuu-kun, but how? Can you guys help me out?????
