On September 11,2001 I was at school and I was not aware of what was happening because my teachers did not indicate that anything was wrong.When I got home however my aunt and uncle were looking at the tv and my uncle said "my god thet then knocked down them towers". I asked him what happened and he explained to me that planes had crashed into the World Trade Center and they had killed thousands of people.I asked how did it happen and my uncle told me terroist had taken over a planes and crashed them into the centers.I looked at the tv and footage of the towers going down and people running away from the dust of the towers and some people geeting caught and the dust and others coming out of it.All those people screaming,crying,and standing in shock at what happened. At first I admit I could not believed what happened but slowly as the day of when this happened went on it dawned on me how bad it was.When it was time for me to go to sleep that night I could not because I was scared.
