It was a normal day, or at least thats what I thought it was. As I woke up early that morningto catch the bus, I groaned as I thought of the upcoming school day. The day started out normal, I went to my first period class which was personal Finance. Then I went to second period, all was well. But when the Bell to leave second period had ended, I noticed quite a bit of commotion in the halls. People were talking about the world trade centers and about an airplane . As I came to my third period class i Had gathered a lot of info.My science teacher told us that one of the world trade centers had been hit by a airplane. He turned on the TV and a few minits later the principal announced to all teachers to turn off all the televisions. I was very mad because I wanted to know what was going on. I reached 4th period and found out that the second tower had been hit also. By 5th period the Towers had fallen.

My Life has changed as a result of 9/11 in many ways. Security has severely changed within the country. I have a new view of other countries and groups around the world. Trust is being lost for other people. There was also a great unification among the American people. Everyone came together to unite for a common purpose, to defeat terrorism.

I think we should remember the heros of the tradgedy. Firefighters, policeman and many more who helped that terrible day. We should definetly remember the lack of security that America had and that we should keep up security. I think America came together that day but we should have been together in the first place.
