Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: When I first learned of the attacks on the Twin Towers and the Pentagon I was in my 3rd period English class. My initial reaction was shock. When the assistant principal came on the intercom and announced what had happened I told myself ?this isn?t real?. ?How could something like this happen?? Everyone in the class was blow away. After the announcement there were a few moments of silence because we all still needed time to absorb what we had just heard. Throughout the day the halls were full of emotion. People were angry, sad, and stunned. As the day progressed and I saw image after image of the blazing buildings I went from shocked to sadden and then to angry. To this day it still seems unbelievable that something like that happened here. I see the aftermath unfolding on the television everyday and I wonder if it will happen again, if it will be worse the second time around, will we get the horrible master minds behind these acts and something like 9/11 will never happen again. Whenever I go on a flight there is that lingering image in the corner of my mind of the plane flying into tower and I?m scared to think that that could happen to me. When you think about history you realize that this isn?t the first thing of its nature to happen. Before 9/11 there were the embassy bombings in Africa and the continuous bombing of England in World War 2. History is always repeating itself events like this have occurred sense the dawn of time and will continue to happen as long as there is always hate for someone else till the end of time.
