Community
Hi. I'm Hannah. I was so excited to be accepted to Governor's Scholar Program 2008! I will be Senior at Bardstown Highschool this fall. I have three brothers, no sisters, some dogs, chickens, a cat, three sheep and we had a llama...but it died. Anyway, I won't go into a long description of my classes here at Bellarmine for GSP but I would like to talk about the thing that has made the biggest impression on me so far. If you attend GSP you'll probably roll your eyes as you read this since the word "community" seems like it has been the only thought or word coming out of the wonderful staff and RAs since we arrived here last week. The fact that 360 proactive, intellegent, kind young people, most hardly knowing any other scholars, can come together in the way that GSP requires, is incredible to me. Every person I've met since I've come here has been nothing but filled to the brim with kindness, intellegence, and a fierce determination to make friends and build strong relationships. The bonds that I've seen grow in just over a week are simply unbelievable. The people here are unique in that they not only want to join together to have fun, they also want to build relationships, learn, experience, and dive into this vast oppertunity that is GSP. They want to create a community. And that has made all the difference to me.
