I Just met Yann Martel

Last Thursday, I went to the Freshman Convocation for my College. The main speaker was Yann Martel, author of the award winning novel, Life of Pi. His speech was very inspiring and he spoke about the themes and ideas of his book, as well as a personal message to all the first year college student's (which I was included).

Also, A famous magician named Jay Owenhouse (www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCZMCY…) presented his own speech. For those of you who don't know Owenhouse has lived with tigers for at least 5 or 10 years (Here's more about them www.bozemandailychronicle.com/…).

As you can see, the Convocation was awesome. I even got a signed copy of Life of Pi, which I am still reading. I still haven't seen the movie yet, but I know that "Life of Pi" has enlarged to something great in these past few years. I'm just happy I had such a great Convocation for my first year in college.
