Hey there

[Rukhsana]

Just saying hi, am new, from london

Just looking around for now.

[Rukhsana]

Hey thanks ...

[Rukhsana]

oh really? .. i was gonna ask of we have many londoners here? ... Do you still live here?

[Rukhsana]

Welcome to PF, tell us more about yourself. You are very pretty mashallah.

Thankyou .. and I'm a teacher ... born and brought up in london.

Am Pashtun from pakistan.

What else can i tell you?

[Rukhsana]

Have to say I'm a little nervous about joining for some reason ... There are many spectrums of pashtun and not sure what the angle of this forum is .. i'm sure over time i'll figure it out

[Rukhsana]

My name is Shlombay Khan, I am from Kandahar but I was born in New York.

I think New York City is much much better than London. I find the British accent to be funny and I cant take anyone with it serious cause I just laugh at the accent, lol.

Well then i should let you know us londoners tend to think the same about the American accent in general ... we find it makes you all sound a little ditsy ... ofcourse you're not lol

[Rukhsana]

nope...i moved to canada 8 yrs ago...were planning on going back though..

Massive Pashtun communities in Canada ... I've heard, you should come back! ...

[Rukhsana]

lol, but the American accent is the worlds standard. We have 300million speakers compared to the 80 million in England lol.

I am happy you are here. What part of Pakistan are you from? I hope you don't mind my jokes, I am a cornball. I attend Columbia University, I am young and fly.

Don't be shy, post everywhere and every section as much as you want. We are a family.

HOW DID YOU FIND PASHTUN FORUMS?

Thats ok ... You are just following the traits of your fellow american .... don't be offended of my retaliation either

To be honest i searched for a pashtun forum ... i have done so many times before but find myself thrown into very one sided ones ... this may be the same but looked a little more intellectual, and 'normal' ... I don't want to start having a debate about how pashtun I am ... as I have had to do on many an occasion before. I like being Pashtun but i don't walk around speaking like an emperor or a warrior and don't hate everyone who isn't pashtun ...

Sorry if that was a bit heavy ... am lovely really!

[Rukhsana]

Thankyou to all the welcomes

[ayub]

hi ruksy, welcome and have fun

Mean while someone should inform that 'young and fly' shlomby that there is no such thing as a British accent. That's why there is the famous British phrase.. Damn why those Yankees so DUMB. Lol.

Didn't want to be too rude ... its only my first day

[Rukhsana]

As i'm browsing i get the distinct feeling that i'm the oldest person here .... lol whats the average age in this place? ... School/college??

[Rukhsana]

Everyone is over 20 while the seniors are in there 50s. The oldest member is 70 years old.

really? everyone is over 20 ...?

I nosied around a bit and i swear some are at school ... as pupils ... must have got it wrong .. doesn't really matter anyway, was just wondering

Welcome Rukhsana, I am sure you will love it here as much as I do. I am currently working on my Masters degree in Mathematics at NYU.

Shlombay is just shlombay, you will get used to us all very soon, you will notice this community is amazing and you will also notice the many type of Pashtuns that exist. We have communists, atheists, secularists, hindus and various other kind of Pashtuns!
