NMAH Story: Story

I witnessed the history on September 11 at school and at my house. None of my teachers told anyone really. I got picked up in 4th period witch was around 9:45. I just thought my sister was picking me up to go to the mall but what I didnt know was that the world trade centers has been attacked. So when i went down to my locker i was saw my sister and told her to come over and asked her why did she pick me up. She told me that the world trade centers have been attacked and there is still one air plane in the air. At first i thought she was kidding but then i looked at her face and she really wasnt. I was really shocked i didnt know what to do or say i just wanted to get out of school and be with my famliy and watch tv and see what was goin on. When i got home i went straight to the tv and turned it on and i see the first plane hit the tower and going up in flames.
I felt so sick because i couldn't believe people could be capable of such a horrible tradgey.

NMAH Story: Life Changed

Yes, my life has changed ever since the tradegy of September 11. There are so many ways my life has changed and many others people lives as well. Our nation has has changed. We now are joining together as one. Everyone has an american flag on there cars or on there house. Alot of kids, teenagers, and adults have been wearing shirts with the american flags on it. People would write on there cars and put God Bless and America We Stand. Not as many people take life for granted as much. Our nation has just came together and just changed so much.
