Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I remember that I was in my first period Trigonometry class. My teacher's wife had called in and told him that a plane had crashed into the first tower. He turned on the television in our room and there it was, smoke billowing out of the first tower and the kids in my class were like "what happened?was that an accident?was that some kind of government prank?" Then we resumed class but still had the TV on. Then, the second tower was hit and we all knew that this wasn't some prank that this was for real! The rest of the day was horrible. Everyone was worried, we didn't know what else to expect. When I got home I learned that a plane had gone down in Shanksville, Pa. That was so close to where I live, I couldn't believe it. Why was all this going on? It just didn't seem real. It is like this is all a dream and we are waiting for someone to wake us up, to tell us we were having a nightmare. I can't express my feelings for the families that had loved ones that died especially the children. I grew up without a father; I know how hard it can be?they are not alone. And for who did all this?its all fun and games until someone gets hurt then it's war.
