Looks like college needs to be on your to-do list.
In addition to knowing how to spell your name.

I think we learned that in kindergarten. I hated my name when I was a kid. My mother had hyphenated my first and middle name because I was named after my dad and she didn't want to call us both the same names, so whenever I had to write my name, instead of "Mary" or "Anna", it was ****—***** (yes I know I used the em dash, but you couldn't really see the hyphen).

When I went on a cruise at 21 and had to use my birth certificate, I realized that my name was not hyphenated, and for a number of years, went by the shorter version. I changed my mind back when I got married, because I think it sounded nicer and more "me".
