"It's kind of hard to transfer contacts." "I never changed it," Yelsangikar said. "And sometimes I kind of regret it." Nonetheless, she admits that having such a quirky email address often comes in handy, particularly when she wants to induce a couple of laughs. Today, she still uses that very same e-mail: an address with the words priceless and princess strung together as the result of an eleven-year-old's passing fancy. "How bad would it look if an admissions officer read: twilightzone3 is applying for college?" Chang said. During the summer before her sixth grade school year, Yelsangikar moved her mouse and clicked on a little blue button that would changeher life forever: "Create my account." At the beginning of every school year, Belshe requires her students to sign up at the Gilder Lehrman Institute of History, a resource website. Every year Belshe calls one student to the front of the classroom to demonstrate the process via overhead projector. And every year, Belshe asks the class, Okay, so is there anyone here who doesnt have an embarrassing email?” At the beginning of every school year, Belshe requires her students to sign up at the Gilder Lehrman Institute of History, a resource website.

And shifting contacts is a hassle.As a result, she limits its usage to professional needs. Chang is another student who still uses her sixth grade e-mail address: twilightzone3. "I was really into the [Twilight saga]. Yeah, I was kind of obsessed with it," Chang said. "Now people laugh at me. They're like, 'Wow, nice email.'" senior Stephanie Chang "It's a conversation starter." Belshe advises students to move on. "I think its time for students to show the world that theyve moved on past where they were in third or fourth grade," she said.It's time for new stage in life." a m "Sometimes when students e-mail me they don't even sign their names.
