I was or was supposed to be in 4th period study hall when I heard about a plane flying into one of the twin towers. I had a pass from 3rd period so I decided to take my time getting to class. Right before I was about to walk to class I noticed a dark room with a tv on and 4 teachers standing around it. On the tv was replays of the plane flying into the second tower. I watched this in total shock over and over again. By the time I realized I had to go to class 10 minutes had passed.

Yes, my cousin who is very close to me has left for the marines because of what has happened.

The brave men and women who tried to save the lives of the people who were trapped in the towers and in the pentagon.

Yes, although I had always been patriotic and took pride in my country and its flag after the events of 9/11 I started taking more pride in flying my flag.
