Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: Hello, my name is Sidony and I am 14 years old and this is my story.On the morning of September 11th I was getting ready for school, as usual. At about 8 o'clock central time ( it would have been 9 o'clock in New York) I got a call from my dad at work, he requested that he speak with my mom. I told him she had already left for work. So he told me to turn on the television, so I did. I turned it too CNN, and i saw a horrible sight of the first world trade center on fire and smoke bellowing out from all directions. I stayed on the phone with my dad a little longer. At about 8:10 I saw the second plane hit world trade center 2. My heart sunk, I couldnt believe what was happening. My dad had to return to work, so we hung up. Thats when the building one (tower one) started to collapse and I would say that building two (tower two) had started to come down about 5 to 10 minutes later. Started to cry, I couldnt imagine what those people went through. The one's viewing all of this, the one's one the planes, and the family of the victims. shortly after the towers collapsed I had to leave for school. I was worried about what was happening. I had no idea about the pentagon or the plane that hit in shanksville, pennsylvania. When I got to my first period class, we turned on the televison and watched for about 15 mintues, by now its about 10:15. This is when I found out about the pentagon and the plane that hit in pennsylvania. Later on in the day (after school got out), I went home and watched even more T.V., Its all just a blur to me now....... I remember sitting there in my living room in total shock..... finding out that people had acutally over come the terroist and crashed the plane into the ground killing themselfs and many others,to save the white house. I am pretty sure they had no idea that it was heading toward there, but I think they had a gut feeling. I had never seen the tours in person, but my dad said the were the most shocking buildings in the world. My dad has been to the 104th floor twice. It was a horrible day for my family. For awhile we couldnt get ahold of our extened family out on long island, it was devestating, and thats my story. I hope we all come together and decide to rebuild those towers to show that we are a strong nation and nothing is going to break us down!
