Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was walking in to my second hour class on September eleventh and the first thing I noticed that was strange was that are teacher, who would normally tell us the day before that he was playing a movie that week, was trying to get the TV to work. I looked at another student next to me and asked what happened. they said an airplane had hit a building. I then had an image in my mind of a 2 seated plane accidentally crashing into a miasma. I couldn?t think of any other logical reason for him to be showing us this on TV. When I saw the twin towers, one of them smoking badly on TV, I could only describe it as tunnel vision. as if the hole room around me got darker. In what I can only describe as shock, I looked at my teacher, and back at the TV. He repeated what he had herd about what had happened. He also mentioned that it must have been a horrible accident. But things got a lot worst. I stood there watching the towers live, as another airplane hit the building. That right there had to be one of the worst 911 related things I have ever seen. I watched as one of the towers collapse, live, as the second one fell into a gigantic ball of dust along side its twin. When I found out that an airplane had hit the pentagon, I thought the world would quickly slip in to world war 3. I knew that smaller events had started wars, like assassinations of some people, so surely the assassination of 3,000 people or more would not be good for public relations. I thought that if this act of terrorism was ever blamed on another country, we would surely go to war with them, and there alliys. but some how this did not compare to what I felt when I saw HBOs special on the event. This one clip just kills me. I will never forget it, as I will never forget 9/11. It was not only horrible seeing the second tower collapse from the street level, but the things the man holding or standing by the camera said. I didn?t know what to think. I still don?t know what to think. Should I be angry? Should we, AMERICANS be angry?
