As I woke up and got ready to go to work I rceived a phone call from my dad telling me frantically to turn on the television. I ran to turn the TV on when I felt my heart stop. I could not believe what I was seeing. I sat on my bed as the second airplane hit the second tower. I was in a panic because I felt as though the towers were going to collapse. I screamed to the TV, as if though they could hear me, for everyone to get out of the building, but sadly not everyone made it out with their lives. As many Americans I felt like if it were just a dream and I tried time after time to awake from such a horrible dream.

My life has changed in the sence that I don't like to attend huge events, like basketball games.

What should be remembered about September 11th is the lives that were lost and those that were left behind. As Americans we should be proud to say that this event wont get us down, but it will make us much more stronger because we are The UNITED States of America!

I did not fly a flag, but to me the flag means a lot more than it ever did. The flag to me means unity and makes me very proud to be an American.
