Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: 911 On September 11, 2001, the day New York City and Washington D.C. got attacked; I was in Earth Science talking to my friends Jennifer Upton and April Ames. My teacher turned on the television What I saw on television surprised me. I could not believe my eyes; the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center were on fire. It was the most tragic thing I have ever seen. When the Twin Towers were on fire, I thought, "This cannot be happening!" Then two seconds later, I saw another plane crash into the other tower. Next thing I knew, they both collapsed on the ground. I felt sick to my stomach. I think this event will change our lives forever. First of all, the United States is never going to be the same again. The World Trade Center is gone and thousands of people loss their lives. Second, people will not feel safe in a tall building like that one. They will always wonder if there will be a plane waiting to crash into it. It was a really emotional time for people. It was an emotional time for all Americans. Is some place else going to be hit? Are we in a war? Who are we fighting? What about the security? Would we ever feel safe again? How could a person ever do this? When is this going to end? I feel nervous going to big cities. I don't know if I will ever be safe again. Or even ride in an airplane again. I feel really sad for those people who had to go through that torture from the terrorists. I also feel bad for the people who died trying to help the people who were stuck in the building. My heart goes out to all those who lost loved ones.
