911DA Story: Story

I was coming back from bringing a student to the bathrom, when we passed a TV in the dorm we were in. There was other staff sitting around watching the TV so we stopped to see what was happening. We had heard rumors before that, but seeing it on TV, we still didnt believe what was happening. It was while we were there that we say the first tower collapse. I was very glad I work in a school that day. Talking to the kids there reall helped me and them.
