Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: The Morning of September 11th was the beginning of a regular day. I was being called to get up by my mom at around 7:30 a.m. and i took a shower and i got dressed, made a lunch and just followed the regular routine. I had to be at my new school for 8:10 a.m. and then i would be starting my class with Mr. DiSaverio. I got the things i would need for the class and i rushed to class through the crowd. I got to my desk to see the St. Mary's Highschool logo on the anouncement t.v.(as usual)and at about 8:20a.m. the anouncements cam on. After they were done we sat down, the news channel came on (as usual)and my teacher turned the volume down. i looked up at the clock it was 8:49 then i looked up at the t.v. (which everyone tends to ignore except me) and i saw 1 of 2 really tall buildings burning and i was wondering what this was all about so i told another person to turn up the volume and he did. The whole school was watching the "World Trade Center" burn. i did not know what these buildings were at the time and what the point of them being built was or anything all i knew was that lots and people were trapped and that this was BAD. We kept watching CNN and then another plane hit the other tower. everyone freaked out and the teacher told us to be calm. we started to see people jumping from the burning towers and some of the teachers who were in the hall started to cry. The teachers were saying with a false state in there voice that they were sure that the F.D.N.Y. would be up there in no time and that they're going to save all of those people who were trapped and then the first tower collapsed. the principal came on the announcements and said "you are all asked to pray for our united nieghbor because of the terrible tradegy that is taking place" the teachers and people in my class were all wondering if they would be able to save the remaining tower and then all we heard was a roar and the other tower collapsed. my mother's day was cancelled at work because she is a stock trader and financial analyst and i was sent home with the rest of my classmates. this was 9/11 for me.
