Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: On 9/11, i was in school in about the third hour when one of my teachers came in. He always watch the news in the mourning. When he came in he said while watghing the news he heard that a plane had hit om of the twin towers. At first i thought it was just an accident so i didnt pay it any mind.....until my teacher came back in and said that a second plane had hit the SECOND tower. By then i knew that something was wrong. Two accidents happening at the same time at the same place? Couldnt be. After hearing that terrible news, i stayed calmed. Not soon after the news, my teacher came back about twenty minutes later NOW saying that a third plane had hit the Pintagon in Washington D.C. By that time, names were being called to leave school. I mean the name calling were going like crazy. I then asked my teacher could i go to the bathroom (really wanting to know what was going on.) My teacher unaware that it was a terrorist attack told me to go on. so me instead of going to the bathroom, i went to the guidence office. Near the front enterence of my school is a big glass window. When passing the window, i seen parents running up to the building in panic. When i went in the office, i asked my guidence secretary what was going on. She told me that America was under an attack. Now i was starting to get a little scared because this was really my first time to get to feel what war was like. Soon after talking to jer, i thanked her and went back to class. Finally (when about half of the school was gone), they let us out of school. Now my house was a walking ditance from the school. I was thinking these people are crazy letting us walk while this is going on!! To my surprise, when i left the building, my neigbor was sitting in her car waiting for me. By then iwas happy. When i got to my neigbor,s house, the news was on talking about the incident. I later on found out about the fourth plane that crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. Now no one never thoght about the two bildings coming down. When those buildings came down, riht then and there i knew that America was changed forever.......
