Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: On September 11, 2001 I was at the Aurora Tennis Club playing tennis. I was playing a practice match with my best friend Keri when the first airplane hit. I was playing on court 1 so I was virtually on 10 ft from the front desk. Keri and I were right on the middle of a point when we heard Carlene (The manger of the Aurora tenns club(ATC)) scream "Oh My God" We were a bit shocked to hear Car scream that loud in the middle of work so we stopped what we were doing just in time to see it on replay. We saw the airplane hit the first tower. A shock wave went through me because my parents had just returned form New York the week before. I din't really know what happened, I as only 12 years old, I didn't understand. I just knew that something terrible had happened. Keri and I dind't play tennis any more that day instead we watched the news all day trying to understand why someone would do such as thing. I will never forget what happened on September 11, it was a terrible day for most but for me I think it was the day when I began to grow as a person. I no longer take my life for granted because I learned that life is a gift that can be taken away instantly.
