Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: It started out like any other school day as far as I can remember. I took the bus to school went to first period and slept. At around 9:10 I traveled down the hall to my next period, which was Spanish at the time and took a seat thinking it was going to be just another normal day of Spanish class. About 10 minutes into the period Mrs. Gipe (my Spanish teacher) walked out of the room to have a quick 1-minute talk with one of the fellow teachers next door. She came back in with a look of disbelief and concern on her face. Then she told my class and I that there was something on T.V that we needed to see as she turned on the T.V. There stood tower one of the World Trade center with a smokey gaping hole a little bit above the middle of it. My whole class was shocked and speechless. We all just sat there and stared at the T.V screen in awe. We all thought that it was just an accident; some plane was just flying too low and lost control. But, about 15 minutes later a large charter plane came out of the left of the T.V screen and smashed right into tower number 2 of the World Trade Center. It was the most horrific thing I had ever seen in my life. The only thing I could think about was my whole family and if they were ok, considering my whole family lives in New York. For the rest of the day there was basically no school just a bunch of very concerned and confused people walking around the halls and the classrooms with the TV's on wondering why this had to happen. I will always remember exactly where I was and what happened on September 11th 2001, how could anyone forget.....
