Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: Life had been like it always was. I had no worries, sports went on regularly and school was painful. It was a time when there were no worries. People, along with myself, felt safe. I was able to walk the streets and not worry about something happening to me. The morning it happened was like everyother day. I got through first period with a nice little nap. It wasn?t until later when everything went wrong. I was walking through the halls talking to some friends when one of them said something that caught me off-guard. He was talking about one of the football moms and how she had two friends die in planes that hit the world trade centers. I didn?t believe it and just went on to my next class. In the middle of class my teacher told us to head into one of the other classrooms as we walked in we saw footage of the first tower. As we watched we saw the second plane hit and both towers collapse. We watched in every class for the rest of the day. The events of that day changed my life. I was now more patriotic then ever. Hearing the national anthem before football games brings tears to my eyes. When I got home I was relieved to see my dad. He worked at the Pentagon and after this I respected him more. It was too close a call. I cared more about loved ones now. nothing was to be take for granted anymore.
