911DA Story: Story
I would first like to say that even though i was not actually there in New York or Pennsylvania, on September 11, i feel like they pretty much attacked my city, because you can't just mess with one city, it affects us all.
I remember it very well. I was sitting in 2nd period, and they came over the intercom and said that the first plane had hit the world trade center. At first i thought that it was more than likely a small plane accident, and kept going on about my school work. Right after the bell rang to start 3rd period, they asked all the teachers to turn on the TV's so we could watch it. When i first saw that it was not a small plane, but a large comercial plane, I had this weird feeling. I was watching for a couple minutes, and saw the 2nd plane hit. Then I knew that it was terrorists. I got scared, and wondered if something was going to happen around me. I was in a bind, because I was mad, scared, worried, and confused all at the same time. I stayed in school the rest of they day, watching the news all day long. It was the most confusing day I have ever went through. I would like to finish this up by saying THANK YOU to all of the firemen, police officers, The U.S. and other soldures from other countries, as well as the millions of voulenteers that have helped up get back to a slightly normal life.
