            <text>I was getting ready for school and was watching the news when "Breaking News" showed up on the television.  It cut to a picture of the World Trade Center on fire.  About 5-10 minutes later I saw another plane in the corner of the screen crash into the other building.  I ran upstairs and woke up my parents and watched the rest of the news until it was time to go to school.</text>
