ABOUT ANNIE I am the second of three children in my family. I spent the first 7 years of my life in Taipei, Taiwan, amongst a large extended family network--uncles, aunts and cousins. My family moved around a lot (including a 1-year stop over in Honolulu, HI) before settling down in South Pasadena, CA, of which I consider my hometown. I spent my college years at the University of Southern California (FIGHT ON!) where I relearned my Mandarin! I am currently working on my dissertation hoping to graduate soon :). I love to travel and sing :)... enjoy bubble baths, oceans and beaches, and picnics at the park. I also have an adorable shih-tsu, BABY, who my friends used to call "mop" cause of all his hair!

ABOUT GORDON I awoke in this world 11 inches tall, a small baby in a large city, Shanghai. There I spent 10 delightful years of wonder and happy wandering. One day, my journey took me to foreign shores, San Francisco, USA. A strange and glittering world of color TVs and Automobiles. There I learned Cantonese, and a few months later, learned English and forgot Cantonese. Soon, we moved once more, to Fremont, where my most formative years were forged. Yet, as soon as I have learned the strange customs of suburbia America, I was once more adrift, cast off into the wild, wide world of Davis. A small town, but a metropolis of new experiences and discoveries. College is where I met my closest friends and where I met Annie, my love, of course. Now, the world is expanding once more, Graduate school, responsibility, family, and marriage...
