911DA Story: Story
I was in science and the class was almost over. My teacher was like, "oh did any of you hear about what happened in the states this morning?" Every one didn't know what she was talking about. Than she said, "I guess two planes hit each other in mid-air."
I had to figure out what she was talking about. I wrote a letter to my friend telling her that I was going to skip school, to watch the news.
When I got home I wished I stayed at school. My mom was like Teddy theres going to be a war. One of the first pictures I seen was of the people jumping out of the building.
I just sat there for like seven or eight hours of the terrifying scenes of the attacks.
That day I cried about seven times. I was felt with sorrow, as I listened to people who were looking for their family and their friends.
The next day I went back to school. Not knowing what was going to happen. It was scary for me because that was the first time I ever seen something like that.
September 11 is a day that I will never forget. And I will carry those images with me to the day I die.
