Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I remember September 11 like it was yesterday. We had been in school for about two hours when word got out to some students about the attacks to the World Trade Centers and the Pentagon. Finally around 10 a.m. the principal came on the intercom and confirmed the horrible attacks. At that moment, everyone?s heart started beating at a million beats per second and emotion filled the classrooms. No one knew what was to happen next. Everyone wanted to know the full story of the world going on outside of school, but the teachers would not let us watch the news. When school finally ended after what seemed to be an eternity, all students raced home on the middle school buses to be with there family and watch what was taking place around us. Devastation filled the streets around the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, as the news showed people running and crying in panic. It was awful seeing people struggle to move and to get medical aid. Rubble and smoke consumed much of New York City. Later on that night President Bush came on t.v. to give a speech. Even though I didn?t know much about what he was saying, it made me feel good that actions were already being taken against the people guilty of the most deadly terrorist attack. To this day, Americans have united together and are as strong as we ever have been to fight terrorism. September 11, 2003 has made me realize that you shouldn?t take things for granted in life because in an instant they could be taken away.
