911DA Story: Story

I witnessed history on 9/11 when I got to school and walked into first period and my teacher had the t.v. on. They were showing footage of the first plane crashing into the North tower. Then about half an hour later the second plane crashed, the explosion was like nothing I've ever seen. Then when I was going to my fourth period I heard some teachers talking about how another plane struck the pentagon. Then when the class started my math teacher told us that Twin towers had collapsed killing 3,000 people. He also told us that the plane crashes were acts of terrisom. When I got home my parents were watching the news. The next day my sister and I did not go to school then we heard on the news that the Taliban was behind the attacks on our country and that Goerge Bush considered it a Act of War.
