3 The first story 4.5
3 is about connecting the dots. 1(1H->1)

4 I dropped out of Reed College 5
3 after the first 6 months, 2.5(7->2.5)
2 but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. 2(1H->2)
2 So why did I drop out? 2(1H->2)

4 It started before I was born. 5
6 My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, 6
1H and she decided to put me up for adoption. 1H
6 She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, 6
2 so everything was all set 2
1.5 for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. 6L
1H Except that when I popped out 1H
3 they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. 1H
3 So my parents, 1H
3 who were on a waiting list, 6.5
2 got a call in the middle of the night asking: 1H
3 "We got an unexpected baby boy; 4.5
2.5 do you want him?" 2.5(1H->2.5)
7L They said: 1H
1 "Of course." 5.5
2 My biological mother found out later 5.5
2.5 that my mother had never graduated from college 6.5
1H and that my father had never graduated from high school. 5
4.5 She refused to sign the final adoption papers. 6
6 She only relented a few months later 6.5
7 when my parents promised 1H
1 that I would go to college. 7L
1 This was the start 5(1H->5)
7 in my(6) life. 5
 
01:55
 
2 And 17 years later 6
1.5 I did go to college. 7
2.5 But I naively chose a college 6.5
4 that was almost as expensive as Stanford, 5
3 and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition. 5(7->5)
3 After six months, 4.5
1.5 I couldn't see the value in it. 6L(1->6L)
3 I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life 6.5
2.5 and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. 4
2 And here I was 3
2 spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. 1
4 So I decided to drop out 7L
2 and trust that it would all work out OK. 4.5(1H->4.5)
1.5 It was pretty scary at the time, 6.5L(1->6.5L)
2 but looking back 1.5
1.5 it was one of the best decisions I ever made. 5.5
3 The minute I dropped out 5.5
3 I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me, 7
2.5 and begin dropping in on the ones 1.5
2.5 that looked far more interesting. 5(6.5->5)
