Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I woke up on september 11th at 5.30am just like every other day and I got ready to go to school. When I got into my dad`s caar we turned on the radio and the broadcaster was advising people to stay away from the airports because most of the flights were cancelled or were going to be cancelled. I didn`t know what had happened; I just thought that there was probably a system failure. Then I walked into my first period class and my teacher was watching T.V. That was when I saw the first world trade tower in flames. I couldn`t believe it. Then the second plane crashed into the second tower and I started crying. I couldn`t believe that our nation was under attack. Why did this happen? Who could do such a thing? As I watched the towers collapse I felt sick. I cried the entire day; no-one could console me. I couldn`t believe that so many innocent lives were destroyed by such evil. That day at school none of my classes operated regulary; my teachers let us watch the T.V. so that we could get the updates. That night, when President Bush addressed the nation, I listened and I cried. Our nation had been attaacked by terrorists; our nation suffered greatly that day. I still reflect on the events of that day and I remember it like it was yesterday. I, and our nation will never be the same.
