SEPTEMBER 11, 2001
On September 11 I woke up at 6:30 a.m. in the morning and got ready for school. I got on the bus at 7:10 a.m. and I arrived at school at 7:30 a.m. I was sleeping in first period and when I woke up I heard my friend say something about planes crashing I buildings. I did not think it was a big deal because I thought it was in another country.
Everyone in my class wanted to go in the classroom next to us because our classroom did not have a television. So we went next door and we started watching the news. I saw the World Trade Centers on fire but I did not think it was serious so I fell back a sleep. And when I woke up I saw the first Twin Tower falling down and everyone was running down the street and dust and dirt filled the streets. It looked like it was a movie I could not believe it, and at first I thought it was an accident and not a terrorist attack.
I did not think the other twin tower was going to fall but it did. After a little while we had to go to our other classes. While I was in art my mom came and picked my up and we went home and watched the news. Later in that week I could not turn on my TV with out seeing Osama Bin Ladin's face.
I think they should rebuild the Twin Towers and make a couple of floors in each building a memorial for the people who died in the buildings, on the street, and the firemen and policemen.
It is very important for all of us to support the people's families who died. I think they were cowards for flying the planes into the World Trade Centers and killing themselves and all those innocent people. It took about 9 months to clean the whole mess up. We still don't know if Bin Ladin is dead or not, I think he is still hiding. We should blow up all of Afghanistan to make sure he is dead.
