In order to better understand one's self, that person has to be able to accept criticizm from others.

Ummm...first thing that came to my mind Sorry. I'll see if I can come up with anything else though.

All you need is an intro right? Try this something where you build suspense before you actually introduce yourself. For example, if you are at the track a lot, write something like this:

Two cars pull up to the line at the Boresville Race track. THe left lane pre stages, followed by the right. The amber lights drop to green and in a roar of engines launching and tires squeeling, the race is on. Both cars are neck and neck, until the left lane posts a fantastic time. Driver gets out, with a look of definate satisfaction. The drivers name is ChrisCantSkate, and this is what I do on my weekends....
blah blah blah

Yeah that story sucks, and obviously you want to make it as realistic as possible. But you get the idea; no cheesy "hi my name is" garbage. Although juvenile's intro was pretty good also. Try something like that, but make it interesting.

Personally, I would go with something like blind34_1 said. That is a good way to introduce anything, by grabbing your reader's attention. Start off by telling a story about something you are interested in. Anything to avoid the typical "hi my name is bob and I am an alchoholic". Good luck.

"Prepare yourself for the experience that is Chris. A life loved with the obedience of a doggy with a fluffy tail. See Chris, with his hair in the wind, his baggy pants flailing, his coke in hand. See him, experience him, be him, Chris"

you have to take these things as non serious as possible. be stupid, this is your chance to break the ice with everyone.

no i'm on the otherside of the country at the other disney park. I was born in ft. lauderdale and lived outside of tampa until i was 13 or 14. My parents live out there still in Brandon and i've got some friends who go to the various schools. I have contemplated going back over there due to the ridiculous cost of living in cali, but then I'd be giving up i guess. So how'd the class end up going?
