Some Arabs are actually from the Maghreb.
Im Mauritian. But that doesnt mean much.. Im on the brown side of MAuritian so i might have Indian, Bengali ancestors, or even African ancestors.
but its so mixed.
im just Mauritian 😃

We're related? Oh dear..... =P
Do you not mean Mauritius?
I have two Mauritius friends. All they ever talk about is Mauritius. Mauritius this and Mauritus that and how the UK will never be as perfect. Must be a nice place?
Re: From what heritage are you from originally ? :)
so you want a third friend to talk Mauritius this and that.
MAuritius is the name of the country like Bangladesh
MAuriTIANS are the people who live there like Bangalis.
MAURITIUS IS A HOLIDAY DESTINATION! People go there for their honeymoon! hellyeah its a "nice place"!
Sandy beaches, turquoise sea, a mountain/instinct volcano in the middle, forests, tropical weather.
well..this is mostly what my parents talk about and what i've heard. Last time i went was about 10 years ago...
So i dont know! and i ALWAYS get told off by my mauritian friend for not speaking mauritian/creole. =/
Re: From what heritage are you from originally ? :)
I've only met two Mauritius people in my life.
One was in my class at uni, wasn't really practising and left before he could finish the course.
Other was a plumber who came to our house to fix something.
The former had fair skin whilst the latter had dark skin. I don't why I mentioned that but anyway.
Re: From what heritage are you from originally ? :)
There are oriental (far east) looking mauritian
there are "black" mauritian
they are "brown" mauritian
Some look more indian than others, others look "bengali" etc..
^^hence why we just call ourselves "mauritian"
hmm..havent had the best of experience with them, did the plumber fix whatever was wrong properly?

So what is there to do over there? The volcano sounds nice.
Good Question: where would you want to go for your honeymoon?

Can't remember. I normally stay in my room and let someone else deal with it :p

AND that reminds me, I MISS MY FRIEND (who happens to live in Mauritius) She moved back without her Pre-Reg year! :([/quote]
I like how you had to be reminded to miss your friend.
Re: From what heritage are you from originally ? :)
[quote=Ocean]Lilly, so that I get this correct in my head. You're Mauritian (who are originally from the subcontinent) but you lived in France too? and now you live in UK.
[/quote]
im not sure about the bold bit. dunno nowt about ancestors but i LOOK "asian"
yep born mauritian, bred french and "teenaged" british. 😃 (LOOOL!!!! spellchecker is complaining about not capitalizing Mauritian and British but not saying anything about french..is this a sign?)
Re: From what heritage are you from originally ? :)

Re: From what heritage are you from originally ? :)
[quote=Ocean]And Lilly, That's quite awesome![/quote]

Anyway!! how come im the only one talking about my background?
How old are you? :)
Re: How old are you? :)
Why does it say 20+ ?! It should have been 20-25 then 26+ (that way I'm in a decent section!)
Re: How old are you? :)
lol 🙂 i didnt know how old the oldest users on here were 🙂
Re: How old are you? :)
ok, I have changed that.
Re: How old are you? :)
I didnt think anyone over 25 would be on here, a it says 'voice of the muslim youth' .... youth being 13 - 17/18 🙂
Re: How old are you? :)
You should have changed it to 21-15 otherwise everyone who's 20 won't know where to go!
Re: How old are you? :)
[quote=You]ok, I have changed that.[/quote]

HEY HO!! without the "older youth" this site would be SO..urgh...
Im gonna cry if all them "older youth" get offended and go.
Anyway, they were youth before and were commited and stayed and now they're being chased out. INJUSTICE!!!!!
o.o do you want me to go when im 18? o.o O.O are you trying to take over the world WITHOUT ME!? I knew your smileys were here to try and hyptonise me! HAHA! you have been uncovered! You shall never succeed!
and someone asked some people from a masjid to qualify "youth" and they said 16 😃
13-18 is teenagers.
I just realised HOW CLOSE i am to twenty..twenty is like TWO DECADES. thats a lot...

Re: How old are you? :)

Oh. What am I going to do now? 🙁
Still waiting for the tardis to come and collect me. 🙂 cos I think I said I was 948? Lost count tbh.
Re: How old are you? :)
Sully's touchy about her age...
if 25 is max then thats fine, i've still got a few years 😃
but then thinking about marriage...guetting married in your "youth" isnt so..
Re: How old are you? :)
Well, you're not gonna get married once your a gran are you?
Re: How old are you? :)
[quote=You]Well, you're not gonna get married once your a gran are you?[/quote]

Re: How old are you? :)
Just saying that marriage is a young peoples game.

Ofcourse they do, but they act the opposite...
Re: How old are you? :)
Do they?
I'll happily admit it 😛
Re: How old are you? :)
he was talking about himself...
edit: thats not the point, he's insinuating that guys act differently...
i would get married now if i could, but...i dont think i'd make a good housewife, and i might be a bit TOO childish.
so, next stage, 20. (gotta read up, only got 4 years o.o)
edit 2: i value my life. FLuffly, you can be the mascot of the worldtaking plan.

really? wow. i think 16's too young. hang on who started talking about marriage in this topic too. urgh MuslimBro's obsession with marriage is taking over revival. Although if i remember rightly it all started off with Truth's blog...
Re: How old are you? :)
[quote=ThE pOwEr Of SiLeNcE]Although if i remember rightly it all started off with Truth's blog...[/quote]
She however contrfonted the issue in a mature and dare I say it, courageous manner.
We however are just using it as a way to be childish.

Why thank you. (Although I didn't expect marriage to be such a grand topic but still)
A friend from uni suggested .. wait this could be the start of my blog - why waste precious words? [please move your cursor towards whatever my blog might end up being titled] (you'll have to wait while i write it though)
Re: How old are you? :)
No.
The opposite maybe, sometimes.
Enjoy your youth - it will not last forever.
(I want to use the phrase "youthful exuberance" somewhere. But I shall refrain.)
Re: How old are you? :)
Here you go. (You have already replied there, but its a good link I think.)

It's proven scientifically - the older a woman gets, the less fertile she become.
Not such a big problem with men though. I know someone who's father was 70+ when his wife had a child.
like who?
i clas myself because i am 🙂
