First select the magnetic lasso, draw a line around your self. Press control+c or command+c for mac.
Open your picture you want to use as a background in photoshop. Press command+v or control+v to copy yourself into the picture.
Use filters and adjust the colors to make sure you are fitting properly in the photo (e.g. when everything is very white and bright, while you are dark and yellow, you need to change the white balance and intensity etc).
You could also press the kind of camera, then draw exactly over yourself and then press the camera (on the left bar, low). Now you are selected. Or you could make a picture of yourself on a white background. Then delete the white background by picking a color, or selecting the magic wand (on the left bar, somewhere above. you might need to right click) and deleting areas.
