Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: It was just a regular day in school, went to first period half asleep and didn't even know a tragedy was going on as I sat there wishing the minutes away. Then second period came around and i trudged into trig. class. My teacher was lecturing on something to do with triangles when his phone rang. This was not an out of the ordinary thing to occur during class. But this phone call was different, a look of disbelief fell upon my teacher's face and he quickly hung up the phone, ran across the room and turned on the TV. There it was, the first tower on fire with news reports coming in none stop. Questions immediatly flew around the room as my classmates tryed to comprehend what we were seeing. After a while all the details were worked out and a state of shock filled the room. Soon the towers fell one after another and more reports of planes crashing at other locations were confirmed. The rest of the day drug on with every student and teacher alike glued to the TV waiting for updates. Class stopped for the day all anyone was talking about was about the tragedy. The numbness continued into the evening until President Bush's speech came on TV. That was a extrememly good speech that was just what America needed. I knew then that I had witnessed history that day, history books will be rewritten because of today I thought. I'll never forget that day, the day that changed us all, the day America took a blow to head but did not fall. So now our assailant better watch his back, cause you messed with the wrong country.
