911DA Story: Story

I was in science class with my friends and we were all goofing off like we always did while the tv was on for some reason. All of a sudden we saw a plane crash into the first tower. I thought to myself, is this some kind of sick joke? I knew nothing like this could happen to America.
I was afraid because i didn't know what was going on and i had no idea what was going to happen next. Usually everybody is late to all their classes but on September 11, 2001 we all ran to our next class to see what was going on.
Yes i am a little more cautious in what i do and where i go but i havent changed anything about my life because if we change our normal lifestyle then the terrorists have won.
