I witness history on September 11th when I watched The Twin Towers fall. That exact same day, my brother and I did not go to school because we were both ill. I think we were the firts students to witness the towers fall and know that New York was being attacked. We were both in the living room changing channels when we suddently saw and heard how the Towers were coming down like an avalanche. We were so suprised to see what was happening It was like a normal day not knowing what was going to happen. We saw how the people were running away from the buildings and the smoke. That is how I witnessed history on September 11,2001. My life has totally changed because of September 11. It has changed because now the thought of the terrorist trying to attack again is going to be in my mind.
