NMAH Story: Story

I was in my art class when I heard what had happened in New York, Pennsylvania, and at the Pentagon. I really didn't think of what was going on, since I had no clue what the severities of the attack were. I went to third period (World Geography) thinking nothing of it. My brother came to get me during class, to take me home. On the way home, he had a song by Cold playing, called "End of the World". It made me think: "What if this is it? What is this IS the end of the world?". I was scared for my life a bit, and went home and went on as normal.

NMAH Story: Life Changed

It hasn't changed much really. I act the same, talk the same, etc. I'm just kind of tired of hearing about what happened. I also don't like how the whole country is suddenly a patriot nation. It annoys me that it took a violent act like this to bring out their American Pride.

NMAH Story: Remembered

It was an event to be remembered. It's like Pearl Harbor, but modern and scarier. That's all.

NMAH Story: Flag

No, I didn't, but my parents did. Nothing's changed about America for me. It's the same pretty much.
