About me Can you see me? (hint: hover here)

I am honest, intelligent, creative, persistent, and dedicated.
I believe in working hard and having fun (but not necessarily always in that order.)
I value knowledge, and I constantly push myself to learn and experience new things.
I am not afraid to challenge myself and others.
I do not believe I am any better or any worse than any one else.
I put everything I have into everything I do, and it stings sometimes when things don't work out.
