- How Did I Meet Benji– “My eldest sister Emily and I were talking one night about how funny it would be for me to marry someone with the last name Ho to compliment our last name Gung. I never thought it would actually happen. Less than two weeks after our phone conversation, she met Benji at their school’s Taiwanese Student Association gathering, and for some strange reason she knew Benji would be perfect for me. After meeting him, she called me and said, “Irene, I found the perfect guy for you!! You two are gonna get married one day!” She cleverly invited Benji to a family ski trip, and after getting to know him more, I couldn’t help but like him more and more each day. ”
