911DA Story: Story

I remember it like it was yesterday. It was a fine day till that horrible tragedy occurred. I was sitting in Mrs. Messer?s class she was my science teacher. The hour after science I had U.S. history so we watched history happen right before our very eyes. It was unbelievable, like something out of a movie.
No one wanted to do any work or anything every teacher in the building just cancelled the assignments and we watched the trade centers all day. We watched the tragedy unfold before our very eyes. Each teacher I talked to would say something like "how could this happen" or "everyone will remember this like the day Kennedy was shot where you were what you were wearing and everything about that horrifying day."
I think it is a horrible thing that happened on that day but many more Americans have developed a better sense of nationalism sense that day. There is nothing good about what happened on Sept. 11 even though I had some good effect of some people, which may sound wrong but it is the truth. Some people had bad attitudes towards the U.S. now those people had sympathy and compassion towards the United States citizens.
