Why Ancient Chinese History?
Sorrin didn’t like high school and he talked his parents into letting him quit high school, get his GED and start college. They agreed, hesitantly, but his plans didn’t take long to unravel. Dissatisfied with college, he ran away from home when he was still just 17 years old. He spent time in Florida and California. He wasn’t homeless, he said, but wasn’t far from it. “I spent a few years moping around. I wasn’t living on the streets, but was I just a paycheck or two away from it.” A couple of years later Sorrin made a deal with his parents to come home and go back to college. He was having tonic clonic (grand mal) seizures about once every couple of months and complex partial seizures several times a month. So he moved back home and began taking classes full time at the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee. After a couple of semesters, he found himself taking fewer classes and working various part-time jobs. He had not concentrated on a major during his first several years at school.
