I remember where i was like it was yesterday i was in school and it was during gym. My teacher told us all to go upstairs where the T.V was and watch history being made. My friends and I were all unsure what he meant but we sat there and watched everything occur on t.v. We didnt get to see the first plane hit but we saw the second plane slam into the building. I just remember being shocked at who ever would do this to thousands of innocent people. I was also scared for my dad whose a senior chief in the Navy i was unsure how this would effect him.I remember sitting through school and in every class we did no work just talked about 9/11 and watch it on t.v. i remember some kids were joking around about it and thought it was funny but it did not amuse me it was no laughing matter. I am a very patriotic person and so is my family and the events of 9/11 effected us all. I was really moved by all the courage of the volunteers and the fire-fighters and now the soldiers fighting in Iraq there the true heroes of America not the celebrities or famous people everyone wants to be like. I think we should support our country no matter what, espicially since American lives are fighting for us in a different country we should give them all our support and pray that they all make it home. I am so proud of all the soldiers and all the people who helped on 9/11. GOD BLESS AMERICA
