Sept.11
On Sept.11 I awoke to my mom saying,? Wake up, there?s been an accident.? I ran down stairs just as the second plane hit. I said ??Oh my god!? and gasped. I could not believe somone could do something so horrible. Then came the unthinkable. The first tower collapsed and I screamed. We all said a prayer then I headed to the bus stop. We all talked about what had happened and how scared we were that something would happen to us. Then we talked about how mad we were. The overall feeling on the bus was sadness and fear. What kind of jerk would do something so horrible. When we arrived at school we talked about what had happened. Our teacher gave us a few moments to let out our emotions. I asked if this was a dream because I still didn?t believe what had happened. I couldn?t wait to get home to watch the news. I couldn?t believe someone attacked my country.
