The Strangest Quark

I put down a pretty stupid one on all my forms and stuff (starlight and dragonfire... I got it when I was 14 and can't be bothered to change it). My mum was worried it'd affect my application. I don't think it hurt, everyone gave me an offer.

Reminds me of my Grampy, saying of my UCAS application "Well, at least she's got nice handwriting...".

I have a few weird ones, but everytime I created a new one trying to be serious, I couldn't. I used my school e-mail: do you have one of those?

Now, why didn't I think of that..?
What a ripping idea!

Also: Why have you changed your name to Laevis? This one is unpronouncable! :p:

I'm sure nobody would discriminate against me - tom [at] tommorris [dot] org :smile:

That said, if you have a Gmail account and a forwarding account, you can set it up so you can correspond from multiple accounts. (Obviously, if you are using a desktop client, that's easy.)

Hehe, good point. Perhaps you should specify who you aren't too? e.g. "iammattandnotlaevis" :p:

Unless they decide to visit tommorris.org, but then again I doubt they would actually bother to do that!

Yeah possibly, although, most people read 'iammatt' as one word and so in essence it is completely pointless :rolleyes:

lol, i made a new one which is just my initials. But I doubt they will really look at your email ad anyway. If so, your teacher probably would have told you to provide a different one!
