Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: The first day of 9/11 I was still in bed, because I am a very heavy sleeper. My whole family didn't know anything because we weren't the type of people that listened to the news. My cousins called up really early and told us to watch the news. I was still really sleepy. I had no idea why we had to wakeup so early. My brother turned the tv on, and we were like, its just all news,then all of a sudden there was the twin towers on fire. I was falling asleep just looking at it, but when it got to the part that the people were jumping off the building, I got scared and thought about why they would do that instead of trying to find the way out. The time the first world trade center collapse, I was like it is so unbelievable because it was so beautiful. The time the second tower collapse, I was in shocked that the people in New York would have to deal with that for nearly the past of their lives. Me and my family were discussing what a great time we had in New York and now it would just be all plain with no towers. I was saying that whoever did that was cruel and was not an accident. Later on, we did find out that it was true. It was terrorists. It just gave me a feeling that what if it had happen here. My mom tried to encourage me that it was not going to happen here, but I was shaking too much to listen to her. All I can say is that one day, hopefully, they will rebuild the twin towers again, even though it won't be the same.
