The Home

Welcome to my humble Webhome,

I am happy and pleased to have you visit this little corner of mine in the vast and profuse territory that is the World Wide Web. As you can clearly see, it is a work in progress. I just graduated from Earlham College in May 2004, and though I started this website while I was in College, it is only now that I have the time to update it (I know, procrastination 101 !!).

Well what can you find on my website? A variety of things really. As you might expect, you will find many things about me, and my family, my country. I will also try to maintain a "What's new" section on this page, so that I can let people know about what I am doing. I also, finally, have a blog on the website, to express myself, and you are more than welcome to join! See the feed here, thanks to Feedburner

What is New with Ali?

• Sept.25.2004: I went to Earlham College for the African Festival. They have done an excellent job, I am really proud of them, for carrying on the torch of Africa in EC. Good job Jacqueline, Destiny and everybody!! It was also interesting to come back to the Campus, and meet everybody. A bit overwhelming, but nice. I am going back to Columbus on Sunday the 26th.
• Sept.12.2004: I have been working for 2 weeks, and it is crazy here!! But it all feels good because we are working for a good cause, even though not everybody here seems to realize it. So I am in Columbus, working hard. Give me a call!!

• Aug.07.2004: I went to my cousin/sister Wivine's wedding to a wonderful sailor-man named Jeannot. I was in the wedding party, and I was also one of the wedding singers with a beautiful young girl named Cynthia Tolende. It was awesome to have a family gathering, even though they are sometimes so conservatively Congolese. The wedding pictures will be up in this website soon, in the Photos Elswhere section.
