NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. The way I witness September 11th was like most people. On the television. I was sitting in my Geometry class and this girl comes in the class and was like a plane hit one of the world trade center towers. Everybody in the class was like "What stupid idiot would hit the tower" I mean you got to be stupid to hit that big building. And then the teacher turned on the Tv and thats when the second plane hit the tower. And this boy was like something is wrong. I think were getting attacked. And everyone got scared because I live in North Carolina and Fort Bragg is one the biggest army bases and we thought we were nexted. And when I went to my 5th period thats when they said another plane was taken and was flown into the pentagon. And I was scared because my cousin works in the pentagon. Thank god, she wasn't a work that day. People were being checkout of school because they knew we were going to war. So parents came to get there children so they could say to goodbye to their parents who were in the military. I went home and turn on the tv and learned everything that happened. And I started crying because of the lost of life. NMAH Story: Life Changed Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001? If so, tell us how. My life has changed.
