I dropped out of Reed College after the first six months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit离开. So why'd I drop out? It started before I was born. My biological生物的 mother was a young unwed graduate研究生 student, and she decided to put me up for adoption采用. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates研究生, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife.
Except that when I popped out, they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking, "We've got an unexpected想不到的 baby boy. Do you want him?" They said, "Of course." My biological生物的 mother found out later that my mother had never graduated授予…学位 from college and that my father had never graduated授予…学位 from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption采用 papers.
