When I found out I was chosen to meet Dr. Bill Cosby, I was shocked actually becuase it always seemed like I never get picked when people pick randomly. I thought to myself, "This is a good opportunity."

My experience from meeting Dr. Bill Cosby was very exciting. It's not everyday that you meet someone who is very famous and has also done so many things to benefit himself in life. I can never thank Youngstown early College enough for giving me the chance to meet someone that is inspiring to me as well as other people.

One thing I will remember about Dr. Cosby is his humor. He is a very funny man, because he made me laugh before I even spoke to him.

This experience will have a big impact on my life because when I think when I see people that have made it it makes me feel, well if they can make it, I can make it. All I have to say is it's just the inspiration of him and the things he did in life. For the future I have to say that all I have to do is make good choices and I will go far in life.
