I had just woke up because the TV was pretty loud. I walked into the living room and my grandma watching the twin towers with one up In smoke. I remember asking her what had happened because I didnt know that much about the twin towers. I didnt know that they were as important as they were. Then, I heard her start to call family and my mom who was at work to tell her what was going on. I went to finsh getting ready for school so i wouldnt be late, and she called me in. There both had been hit by now and one of them began collapsing. Many people were screaming and running down the the roads trying to call family who were in the towers but everyone was saying that nobody was picking up. My grandma started to cry, i was in somewhat shock because i didnt know how to react. I went to school and I remember pretty much the whole day we were talking bout what had happened. Now that I am older, i realize how important 9/11 was and how many lives it affected.
