It is important to take time in both deciding your email address and your password. You need to think what you will be using your email address for as if you are planning on applying for jobs then you need a professional or respectable email address. If you have a comical one or one that can be viewed as childish or rude then that can easily put off an employer.
Your password is also important and you need to pick one that you will definitely remember but is not predictable to others. Therefore avoid your favorite team or celebrity's name as someone maybe able to guess this. Also avoid a password made up of your date of birth as this again can be guessed.
