During my time as a student, a time where nearly every new teacher demands a written
personal introduction, I have come to the realization that they can be very tedious (the
introductions, not the teachers of course…). I have many times asked myself why, and not
very long ago I came to the stunning conclusion that it is because they are so terribly
outdated. The art of writing introductions has not been subjected to any form of improvement
for ages and hence, is out of phase with a society that otherwise is flourishing with constant
development (in more or less useful ways). After being struck by my sudden insight, I have
understood my responsibilities and shouldered the burden of modernizing the classic form of
introduction, all for the benefit of the society in whole. And so, without further ado, I will
begin this revolutionary new type of introduction by supplying the very thing that I think will
bring it up to date and make it better match our highly enlightened times: Legal notices!

Legal agreement:
This is a legal agreement between the reader (often referred to as "you" and may be either an
individual or a single entity) and the author (sometimes referred to as "I"), which, if you
continue to use this document in any way, binds you to the following rights and
responsibilities:
You may read this profile an unlimited number of times and freely share it with your

or other damage to you or your friends that may be caused by excessive use of this product.
You must not alter this document in any way that could prove to greatly inconvenience the
author, if you, despite this agreement, would do that, the author would be greatly
inconvenienced.
I must also ask you to consider that in accordance to physical theories that is accepted by
today’s (2002-09-10) scientific community, there is an extremely small but not nonzero
chance that any physical manifestation of this product, which could be a hard drive or a piece
of paper on which this document is printed, can through a process known as "Tunnelling"
spontaneously disappear from its present location and reappear at any random place in the
universe. The author cannot be held responsible for any damages that may result.
By continuing to read this document you willingly accept this agreement and guarantee
that you have understood the warnings given. Happy reading!

The introduction:
So, on to the introduction then! My name is, as can be seen in the caption, Mattias Vågberg. I
was born the 14th of July 1985 in the town of Örnsköldsvik, which is where I still reside and
attend school. I live with my family, which consists of my mother, my father and my two
brothers (I’m the middle kid), in a nice white house by an equally nice street. I study natural
science at Parkskolan and am right now in my second year of three.
Since you already might have figured out that I’m crazy there’s no need to tell you that,
though you should bear in mind that the line between madness and geniality often is very
thin, or as Jim Carrey so accurately puts it "Insanity is never that far away, it’s as close as
saying yes to the wrong impulse".
When I’m not writing eccentric introductions of myself (an activity which actually doesn’t
take up that much of my time) I like to read books, play computer games, listen to music and
watch the occasional TV programme. I also enjoy more physical activities like forest walks or
playing volleyball, soccer etc. with my friends when such opportunities present themselves.
With that, I will end this profile. I don’t know whether or not you liked it but I’m rather sure
that it is not like any other and that is enough for me, it was at least fun to write it.
