I woke up early in the morning for school on September 11 last year just as usual, but when i turned on my t.v. I witnessed history. For the first time since Pearl Harbor our country had been attacked. This was a complete shock for our country and it effected the lives of everyone in the U.S. and throughout the world.

I don't think my life has really changed since September 11. For a couple of days I was shocked at what happened and watched the news all day for any updates. I wasn't even scared to fly on a plane that summer. I was confident that the extra security would ensure the tradgedy of September 11 would not happen again.

When I think of September 11, I think a couple few things should be remembered. First of all, I think we should remember how vulnerable we can be. WE should also remember the way our country banned together to help the families of the victims of September 11. Most of all we should remember all of the heroes. We need to remember the fire fighters, policemen, medical crews, and hte people on the planes.

I did fly a flag after September 11 to support my country. I feel more patriotic and proud of the American flag since September 11. When I hear the National Anthem or Pledge of Allegence, I really listen to the words and think about what they mean.
