911DA Story: Story
Septermber 11 2001 started like anyother day. I got up made my way to school and joined in on all of my classes
I left my second period class to call my golf pro to schedule a lesson later on that day. He informed me that a plane
had just hit the World Trade center. My first thought was that something malfuctioned with the plane and it accedtally
hit the tower. I went back to class and was the first person to inform my class and teacher of what happened. We did
not know too many details at the time, so we used all the resorces at our disposel to find out information. We later found
that another plane had hit the second tower. We knew somethig terrible had happened, but it did not truly sink in untill we heard about
the plane that crashed at the petagon. Many of our parrents work in and around this very important buliding, in cluding my father.
A small panic went arround our school as many students tried to contact their parrents, most were unsucsessful because of the multitude
of calls being sent. I did not get a hold of my father untill I got home 6 hours later. I found that he was on his way to the White
House, the suspected original destination of the plane. I was lucky that I personaly did not know any one who was hurt in the attacks
of September 11, 2001. I send my best wishes to all of those people who were personaly affected by the attacks.
