Soooo in my intro to business class we were asked to "sell ourselves" for an assignment. No big deal. I just went to work that day...later that week though my instructor emailed us clearer instructions. It turned out it was supposed to be in essay form about how great we are. Who knew? Anyway. This is what I came up with an hour before it was due. It's all true, so don't ask.

When my name comes to the minds of others, all they can seem to think is glorious heroine of our time and all times before us. And they should, because that’s precisely what I am. I am a living, breathing, glowing form of perfection beyond compare. When asked to write about my strengths, I knew immediately how easy it would be because I have so many fantastic qualities and feel comfortable being honest about them.

Ask anyone who has ever heard of me (1 out of 3 Americans, 2 out of 6 people elsewhere) and they will tell you what a flawless being I am when it comes to any area of life. Whether it is the way I nurture the ones who I love (which is everyone, naturally), passionately fight for the rights of endangered species on 7 major continents, or can gracefully untangle any necklace, I do everything exquisitely.

Of those who know me, if some rebel against the idea of being my friend. It’s not because they do not like me; they simply would just like to be me (and understandably so). But I do think that it is very hard for people to come out and say they would rather live my life than their own. This causes them to say things that they expect to hurt my feelings or bring me down. Naturally, I am compassionate and I pay no attention to these individuals and their comments. Clearly they are ignorant simpletons and cannot be held accountable for their actions. Instead of being angry at them, I pray that one day they may become more enlightened to the truths in life, and may come away from the arrogant mindset they hold fast to.

When it comes down to it, all one can say is that I’m the quintessence of everything that is good in this world. It really is a pity there aren’t more like me.
