Disk brake problems

I just got my first set of disk brakes and every once in awhile they'll start to squeak for a bit and my friend told me its normal and that his do that sometimes also...is this true? If not how can I fix this?

You can soak the pads in chain lube such as pedros or triflow this will fix any noise problems you are having..................................JUST KIDDING!!!!!! They will squeak from time to time.
