Well I was sleeping whn the first plane hit and I woke up when my ad came in to tell me that a planewas hiacked and hit one of the twin towers. First of all, I didn't even nw what the twintowers were. I ran into my mom and dads room to really see what was going on. I watched the debris cover the street, people running every which way, just covered in dust and screaming. That day I went to school and I could tell that the teachers wanted to teach but they really didn't have it in hem, their hearts were to beat up. Nothing was ever the same after September 11, 2001.

My life definitely changed. Before September 11, I actually enjoyed flying, but now I am so scared. I used to be excited to be going on a plane, but now, I dread it. I am much mor aware of my surroundings and I always think before I do something. I think September 11, also brought me closer to my family and friends.

I think the people who were killed during ths tradgedy, the firefghters and anyone lse who helped, and how tall we stood with pride and how we never put our heads down should be remembered.

My family put a flag in ourcarwndow My feelings havedefinitely chaged about our American flag. At first to me itwas just a symbol of our country, but today it is more than that. Today it is a symbol for how strong we are, how caring we are, how loving we are, and how united we are.
