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 .

If so, tell us how. 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.
