NMAH Story: Story

We were in school the day of the attack. I was only in the
eighth grade. We watched the tv that day. The anouncements
came on and told the teachers to turn on the tv to a certin
channel during their planning period. In 4th period they
let us watch it. At first a lot of my friends and I thought
it was just a movie to freak us out, but then the looks of
terror on the peoples faces proved otherwise. I couldn't
belive what was happening. A bunch of people were getting
checked out or begging to call their parents to make sure
everyone in their family's were oaky. It was really
horrioble.

NMAH Story: Life Changed

I think that after the attacks I became more appreciative
of my friends and fammily. I think it brought me and my
mother closer together. It taught me a lot about how
quickly you can lose life, and love.

NMAH Story: Remembered

I think we should remember the lives that were lost and their families.

NMAH Story: Flag

yes. I don't really think my ideas have changed. I think it
is partly because noone has ever really explained the
reason we say the pledge. I don't say the pledge because
I have always been forced to say it. If some one explained
it to me without pushing on me I would probably understand
I be more willing to do something that doesn't make sense
to me.
