I hope to leave for China the first week of December

As for the more pictures I promised blame flikr, it keeps timing out on me

Happy and Sad

I went to see my Fiancee off to China from LA. On November 10th I helped her complete her checkout procedures here at the canyon. We then went to Flagstaff on Open Road Tours. We went and closed her bank account, and then we went to Mandarin Buffet, a Chinese restaurant Snow really enjoyed, for lunch. We then took a cab to the airport. We flew to LA and got there about 730PM with 3 of her classmates. We spent about 45 minutes trying to decide on a hotel. We settled on the Howard Johnson listed as being at LAX. It was supposed to have a Chinese restaurant etc. no restaurant, except american style breakfast when we got there. The high speed internet wasn't free. We were disappointed in our hotel. Though it looked nice enough.



Snow and I went to a Pizza/Iranian restaurant for dinner. We had some Pita bread and then ordered BBQ Chicken Pizza. We split an order of Baklava for Dessert.


On the 11th we went to Disneyland with Snow's classmates via Limo.

We spent half the day as a group then split up. We went on several rides. At 11pm we went met up again and took the limo back to our hotel. It was alot of fun and I have many happy memories.


On the 12th they went back to China. Both Snow and I cried. I didn't want her to go and wish I could have gone with her. She left at about 8 am. My flight back to
Flagstaff was at 3pm. I spent the night in Flagstaff but didn't feel like doing much. Too many memories of doing things with Snow in Flagstaff. I went to Walmart for some supplies and then returned to the Canyon.

I will try to get more photos of our time at Disney posted in the near future.

My coworkers are driving me nuts with comments like " So Snow is back in China now? That must really suck for you." I just want to throw them into the canyon.

My next step is to find a job in China. I am looking for a job teaching English. I hope to get married once I am over there.

I'm engaged!!

On November 3rd I asked my Girlfriend Snow to marry me and she said yes. We went to dinner at the Arizona Room, which was the site of our first date two months prior. I wore a Chinese style jacket that Snow bought me on our trip to Vegas, and She wore the Black dress she wore on our first date.




We started the meal with the Roasted Red Pepper soup, and had prime rib as our entree.



After dinner we went to the porch swing at El Tovar, which we did on our first date as well. This is where I proposed to her. She mentioned that I kept staring at her all through dinner. I told her that is because I wanted to be sure hers was the face I wanted to see across from me the rest of my life. I then got down on one knee asked her to marry me and gave her an engagement ring. Her response "OK". After the shedding of a few tears of Joy, I broke out a bottle of Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Champagne. It was quite cold that night so after the initial sips we went back to her room and shared the Champagne with her roommate.




I was too busy celebrating to get an image of the ring until the next day, but it's a 1/3 carrat diamond with an enhancer band of inset diamonds.
