Hello, Dear Ms. and Mr. I am obliged to you for reading the autobiography.

Personally, I'd like to compose my autobiography with the opening like the above,
but I am not sure if it is appropriate to write so or not, I am still looking for another way to express them better as well.. I hope each of you could help me with this out! Thanks a lot!

Are you still trying to rent an apartment?
What is the purpose of this writing?
There is a difference between 'autobiography' and 'self introduction', and the content also depends on the purpose.

'Autobiography' is a detailed description of someone's important life events, usually with some impact on society. For example, The Autobiography of Bill Gates or The Autobiography of Gandhi.

'Self introduction' is a brief description of your self, usually for a job application, a loan, or simply telling people about your self. Nowadays, landlords might ask for a self-introducing letter so they can know a little bit more about you.

I totally agree with the statements the above person made. There are big differences between self-introduction and autobiography.

However, for opening sentences for both types of writing, you want to thinking about how you are going to come out with an open "punch" line, such that the reader will likely continue to read on...
