I witnessed history on September 11,2001. It wasn't live but it was hours after. My teacher told me about the attacks in school, but it was at the end of the day. The teachers should have told us about the attacks right when they happened. At first, I didn't know it was as bad as it was. I wasn't taking it seriously in school. The teachers didn't turn on the TV in school, so I couldn't see it. When I got home, I was shocked. I was scared because I knew it happened once, so it could happen again. That is how i witnessed history on September 11,2001.
