generating password

Issue: my school email address requires me to change my password every 4 months, and I am not allowed to use back my previous old passwords.

key: A way to remember and generate password. 

Take a random easily remembered sentence:

"Psychology is the study of people: how they think, how they act, react and interact."

ignore punctuations, words less than 3 characters.

Psychology
study
they
think
they
react
interact

Read vertically thus the first password : pstttri, sthhhen,yueieat,cdynyce,hy0k0tr (zero or any same numeric filler) 

I have no idea how effective this technique yet. So let me know if it is anything good. 8)
