On Seaptember 11, 2001 I was in Whitman Middle school in 3rd period in science. At about 10:00 all the teachers went in the hallway and like 30 seconds later Mr. Davis the principal came on the loud speaker and anounnced that the Trade Towers and the Pentagon just got hit. Then my taecher cut on the TV and let us see what was going on. Almost immediatley some of the kids started crying cause some of their parents worked at the Pentagon and some of their parents was in New York. I started to fell lucky and scared at the same time. My mom didn't work near the Pentagon or in New York but my mothers cusin did. So I called and made sure she was alright. Fortunely she was already evacuated before the planes hit. I was so scared but then I was relieved when my mom came and picked me up and took me home. 9/11/01 will be a day I will always remember.
