911DA Story: Story

I am Jennifer Dunn and I was at school September 11, 2001. I was having a nice morning so far. I got into second hour Career when all of the seniors, sophmores, and other students were watching t.v. They were telling us to shutup. I thought they were wtching a movie. I went into third hour Algebra, and found out that the World Trade Center (twin towers) had been blown up. I watched the t.v. in there and found out most of the stuff that had happened. Many kids had just laughed at it, until they found out how many deaths there was, and what damage this could do to the lives of all Americans. I was very disturbed because I was born on September 11, 1987. That day was my birthday. Ever birthday that I have from now on I will always think of Osama Bin Laden destroying many families, killing people, and I will also think of Pearl Harbor. I never was interested in History until that day. I have watched the movie Pearl Harbor, and now I am grateful for my freedom because I know it came at a price. People not much older than me have gone out and gave their lives, and many people are still giving their lives so I could have freedom.
