Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: It all begain 3rd period, gym class. We were all getting changed in the girls locker room when our principal came onto the loud speaker and told us that a plane had hit one of the World Trade Center Towers. We all just kinda looked at each other like "What was going on"? We all sat in gym class absoultly silent. We didn't know what to do, and some of us even thought it was a load of bullshit. Not even the end of gym we hear that another plane had hit the other Trade Center Building. By then I was getting pretty nervous. What were they going to do next? Was this really WWW 3? We all basically wandered to our 4th period classes. I told my boyfriend Rick, that I was scared, b/c they started telling people in my city that they need to start evacuating high rise buildings, and my mom works in one. I told him after 4th period that I wanted to go home. We all watched in horror as the first tower collapsed into dust, and then finding out that less then an hour from me a plane hit in Somerset County,PA. After 4th period I went home and called my mom in tears. I told her that I wanted her to come home. She told me she would be alright and would be home later. So Rick and I sat for the rest of the day, watching almost every news channel about this tragic horrific act of hatred. It was such a sad day for America. Yet, one thing I didn't know at the time, was that I had a little innocent American baby in my stomach. She was one of the many "September 11th babies" I thank God everyday for my beautiful little Hollie...
