I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world.

今天我很荣幸能来到这所世界顶尖学府之一的毕业典礼现场与大家相聚。

Truth be told I never graduated from college and this is the closest I've ever gotten to a college graduation.

说实话，我从未大学毕业，而这是我最接近毕业的一次。

Today I want to tell you three stories from my life.

今天我想和大家分享三个我的人生故事。

That's it.

就这些。

No big deal.

没什么大不了的。

Just three stories.

只有三个故事而已。

The first story is about connecting the dots.

第一个故事关于串联点滴。

I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit.

我在里德学院读了六个月就退学了，但之后又旁听了大约一年半才真正离开。
