NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. I was walking to my third period class, science and i saw my teacher and a crowd of atleast 5 other students watching the TV. It was CNN or channel 4 or something. All i saw was the twin towers both in flames. The night before I was at the Yankees game and i said to myself, "I saw those buildings last night." I was very confused and didnt know what happened. I was asking people around me they didnt really know either. Then i saw on the bottom of the TV screen it said "Highjacked Plane flies into each trade center building" I was amazed. The teacher turned off the TV and it didnt seem to be as big a deal. We had class just like any other, as I walked to 4th period their was word in the halls of the crisis. Then I heard in 4th period that the teachers were not alowed to turn on the TV's. Finally in 5th period with no knowledge of what was going on, i was called to the office to go home. I was nervous whne i was called to the office because on the way i saw many students crying. Finally my mom gave me the whole story on the car ride home. I saw the pictures ofthe bilding collapsing on TV. I was in shock. From there i just moarned and wne t on with life. NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001?
