On the day of the attacks, I was sitting in Science class and our English teacher ran and told Mr. Christopherson, our Science teacher, about the news. He then told us about it and turned on the news so we could keep up with what had happened. As he was doing this, he discussed with us that we were at more of a minimal threat of getting bombed because we were more towards the middle of the United States and we don't have that much that would give them reason to bomb us.

I think that my life has chnaged a lot since the attacks because now all of the security in our country has been heightened. Even if they don't bomb us again it has still affected us lot and we don't have quit as much of the freedom as we used to.

I think that the bravery of the passengers riding on the planes should be remembered. Even though they knew that it might have great risks they over took their captors and made the plane crash before it got to its destination. I think that we should also remember how much this has made our country stronger. Ever since the attacks, our country has banded together and we can now truly be called the United States.

Yes. I think that the flag is much more symbolic now after September 11th because it signifies our freedom and the fact that we have banned together as a country.
