What do you think of my introduction?

Question:My first writing class was yesterday and I need to write an "about me" to read to my class to introduce myself. This is what I came up with, what do you think?

I am an explorer. A digger of knowledge and thrills. My mind and body may rest, but inside there's a fire that will never be quenched. I am a seeker. I am constantly searching for the deeper meaning of things. I am a wanderer; a free spirit. I am a restless soul that walks this Earth searching for the missing pieces, so that my story can unfold. I am spontaneous. I think I was a gypsy in a lifetime before this. Traveling and playing beautiful music, resting wherever my feet stopped. An English teacher once told me I was an "Old Soul." I am curious. Knowledge sets me free. I want to see the world. I love to read. It is my escape from the every day. Poetry is how I express myself. I am not good with words, unless they are on paper. I love History. Constantly wondering what stood here before me, in this very spot. I have a mind that sometimes I, myself, can not keep up with. I constantly seek creative outlets for my vivid imagination. So far, I have discovered writing, photography, and interior design/remodeling. I am a dreamer. I am reserved. A bit of an introvert. I am a hopeless romantic. I believe in soul mates. I have been told that I am difficult to understand. Complex, yet simple. I love the unpredictability of big cities. I am passionate, emotional, and overly sensitive. I like to go out for drives, with no destination in mind, and see where I end up. I find it hard to concentrate on one thing for too long. I am always thinking of new ideas/projects. Very few people know the real me. I like it this way...

Yes, yes, yes. I see a bit of me there. Well done.

I like it, except maybe you could change "missing pieces" to "unwritten pages" or "unread pages" then it will go nicely with the context of story unfolding.

Also change "digger" to "learner" or "apprentice" and "adventurer for thrills"

One more suggestion, keep the like thoughts together. For example explorer can be described with driving with no destination. Maybe you could start explaining each trait with I am this (seeker for example), then go into the full details of what that means to you.

this is awesome! i think you'll definitely get an "A"

The use of "I' may cause someone to pause from this wonderful intro. If you have a way of saying this without the use of I it may make this even better.
