Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was in english when my teacher got a call from her husband. She turned on the TV just in time to see the second plane hit the tower. It was one of the strangest things that had ever happened to me, I had never expected anything like that to ever happen. The rest of my teachers wouldnt let me watch. I thought that the planes had hit but the towers were still standing and most everyone was ok. When i got home my mom was crying and my stepdad was just sitting and staring at the tv as the towers collapsed again and again, as it got replayed i was shocked because i thought everything was fine until then. thats when i started thinking. My dad is an airline pilot, and i hadnt heard from him yet. I knew it was unreasonable, but it was still frightening. I didnt hear from him until 2 days later when he called from Minnesota. I had never thought, or seen, any of the problems that we were facing. Now all of us are a little more frightened, my dad is scared every time he takes off. Its so weird, sometimes you forget about it and think everything is normal, but then something happens, my stepdad was talking about the time he went to the top of the world trade towers, he said it was one of the best experiences of his life. I am never going to see them, I have never seen them. All I can hope to see is ground zero, and that just makes me sad and angry.
