Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: September 11, 2001 is one day that I don't think that I will ever remember. I today,one year later, rember exactly were I was and what I was doing when I found out about the planes crashing into the wtc. I was in my physics class my senior year of high school. We had about 5 minutes left of class when a teacher came to the door and told my teacher what had happend. We endid up finish our leson because we were told that it seemed like it was just an acident and we only had five minutes left of class. So, when class was over I emediatley went to my next class were the tv was already on. Everyone in my class just sat and staired at the tv. I remember watching as the second plane it and i remember watching all of the chiling images of the people and of the towers colapsing. To this day I can see them in my mind as if they happened yesturday. I ended up skiping lunch to watch the news about what was going on. Every class I had after that was silent and watching tv. I don't think I have ever been a class were everyone was fixated on what was transpiring. We were all in shock. I had never thought about us being the target of terrorism. Then we were and it changed me. It made me reflect on what America was to me. You see I am am Eagle scout and I have always loved america. But that night the night of 911 I thougt about what had trispired through out the day. And I reflected on what it was to be an american. And I looked at a picture that was given to me when I obtained the rank of eagle scout. It was a picture of an eagle flying high with an american flag waving in the background. And that is when I realzed what a great country I lived in. One were we are free to soar as the eagle soared in that picture. And why are we free well it is becuase of the contry that flys the flag that was in that picture over it. The american flag. So that picture simboled to me what america was and will always be. It is the freedom to soar as high as you posibly can just like the eagle and it is all because the flag in the bacground the flag of freedom THE AMERICAN FLAG.
