This past week my sororities officers had a important meeting with one of our Regional Collegiate Specialist, Dani Weatherford. I am the Vice President of Finance so I was at this meeting. Dani went to Depauw, so Indiana isn't new to her, but knowing this didn't keep me from being embarrassed every time the shotgun went off to scare away the crows. I am used to this going off every night, but that night the sound of the shotgun seemed closer and it went off more the usual. I to be honest was waiting for Dani to make a comment, but she never did.Some of my other sisters, made faces that showed their embarrassment, as well as little comment like, "Oh my", or "that seemed close." But Dani never seemed to catch on, and I can only assume that she already new what the shotgun was for.
After living here for three years now that is just another noise of Terre Haute that I am used to, but if my Grandparents or friends were to come and visit I feel they would think I live in a battle field. With all the sirens going off at all hours of the day and night, and the shotgun going off to scare the crows, I wouldn't blame them for thinking that. I just wish the first impression someone gets from Terre Haute isn't a bad one, but I hate to say that it is. This city used to be one of the must see towns back in the 1920's.
