What is your first name?
Mustafa (Mahmood Al-Saedy)

Age:
24

Location:
Oslo, Norway

Hobbies and Interests:
Making the world a better place before starting to get interested in things. Yet it is neccesary to get interested in things to make the world a better place to live. I have been called psychotic by the doctors for having such "grand-ios" thoughts. I don't agree with that.

Why are you here?
To learn more about Aspergers and confirm or de-confirm wheither i have Aspergers as the doctiors say. And to learn about people who share some traits that are similar to mine. Ultimately, to serve. The higher purpouse of humans is to serve.

When were you diagnosed?(skip if you don't have a disorder):
I don't remember exactly. Lets say i was diagnosed at year 2009.

Favorite subjects:
Making the world a better place. (i have something like 40 years to change my mind)

Year/Grade:
Finished with class 12 (now is 2010 nov)

Favorite music:
Classical Iraqi and Rock.
Books:

TV shows/Movies:
Don't watch alot of TV. Movies, there are plenty to see. I like the Lord of the rings, and i generally like historical movies like the gladiator.

Instrument:
Gitar. I actually play some. Strange, but very easy for those who are interested. I think all the instruments are easy too, just haven't got time to everything and neither does anyone.

Do you like sports?
I like MA. I am famililar with Karate.

Family:
Family. I am in a strange situation in this regards. Because i am from Iraq and live in Norway. Added to that my diagnosis and being a-social, it has resulted in pretty much detached person.

Clothing:
Comeone! Are you serious? ... Black, white, red and blue clothes are the best IMO.

How did you find this website?
After i was diagnosed with Aspergers, i found email from this site appearing in my inbox. Someone registered me with you. (who was it ! !!)

Job:
Currently none.

Plans for the future?
I was going to say; save the world. But that is too extreme. I guess it is like living out my destiny which is to remain Muslim and away from this societies way of life. We are blinded from the truth, and i don't mean to wake people up. It is not my job.

Any comments?
I were not planning to introduce myself this way. It would be easier and make appear as more "normal" if i chose how to write myself. Rest with that i am diagnosed as Aspergers and psychotic.

Peace
