Feb. 15, 2005 Wu Chang È contacted me on the Internet looking for information on the US electronics company Little fuse.
Feb. 18, We begin regular IM conversations each day
Apr. 15, We decide to meet during China's legal holiday May 1 - May 8. I have 2 weeks to get a passport, visa, plan a trip, and learn Chinese. I succeed in all but the last.
May 6, I propose marriage. Wu Chang È tells me the proper way is to present her with flowers and chocolate, and ask her on bended knee from the middle of the street. <knowing how the taxi and bus drivers drive in Shen Zhen, I begin to wonder if this is not a clever way to be rid of unwanted suitors> fortunately she is only teasing, and accepts.
