Everyone calls me by my name

One morning, I replaced all my e-mail passwords with a strange beautiful word I concocted. Actually it is not even a word, it is a random combination of few alphabet. After couple of minutes, my boss gave me a task, the kind that has to be finished immediately. So, I started working on it and half an hour passed before I realized that I forgot my new password.

I had applied for admission in few grad schools in US and they would intimate me of their decision through one of my e-mail accounts of which the password I just forgot. With unflinching composure and confidence, I clicked on 'forgot my password' link and the websites sent new passwords to the other secondary mail accounts whose passwords were also replaced with the new word. Still without panicking, I used the option of answering secret question one website offered and the question was 'What's your pet name?'. Now, I am really in the soup because I never had any pet name. Everyone calls me by my name.
