I witnessed Sptemeber at the Marlborough Middle school.
It was annouced over the intercom during the first period.I was with my friend in the back of the room talking when the principal said what happened. As he told us this my class went dead silent for the period. as I walked to my second period every was talking about it. some were crying. some did not say anything.as I got to my second, my teacher had the news on channel 7 listening to the news reporters talking about the accident.I went home to find my mom watching the news.It was the same thing Isaw at school. as I watched it with my mom Iwas shocked that something like this could happen.


When my dad came homehe askedifI know what had happened.I said yes.Before I went to bed, my whole family was in front of the Tv watching the news. that night my family had a disscussion on what had happend today.I went to bed with that disscussion in my dreams.


my life has changed. Since that day, I have been that if the terroist can hijack a plane, why can't they just walk into my school and blow it up? With this in mind I do not go to highly crowed places like the mall. Very often. My life has changed in relation to air travel because the lack of sercity. To sum it up, my life has changed.


I think we should remember the people who lost their lives just doing their job. WE should remember the people who helped solve the crime. The most important thing we should rember the firefighters and police officers who heled clean and rescue the people in the twin towers.
