My name is Shelby Glenna and I am from a small town called Kokomo in Indiana. It is about an hour away from Indianapolis and for the most part it is a town no one has ever heard of. Growing up in a small town had its perks, but having a close nit family that was right down the road whenever you needed them was the best. My mom is my role model and my 22-year-old brother is my best friend. I have always been very involved when it comes to cheerleading, which is one of the many communities I identify with. The University of Kentucky always stuck out to me. I wanted the “ultimate college experience” all while getting a good education and living in a safe environment. UK offers all three. Which leads me to another community I identify with, other than being a Wildcat, I am also a part of Delta Gamma. English is by far my favorite subject. Throughout high school I excelled in my AP Comp/Lit classes simply because writing came easy to me. I rarely ever have writers block; I can write for hours on almost any subject. This semester I hope my love for English grows and I hope I can push myself to be a more sophisticated writer all while maintain good grades.
