just like every 1 i was doing my usual just another day in class, so we thought. i had just started 4th grade. it was a tuesday morning i remember and an announcement came on said ‘every 1 under your desks now world trade centers are being attacked’ i thought some 1 was in the school so i started to panic we all screamed and the teacher told us to be quiet. i told god to tell every 1 in my family that i loved them. i thought that was my last day. we felt the impact from the tower falling the ground shook and we heard this loud rumble like thunder its hard to explain. parents were yelling and trying to get us then the next one fell i sat there in a ball just crying my friend grabbed me up and the teacher got us all to the cafeteria. and it looked like night time with the lights on. i was so scared our parents were trying to get us but they had to be searched and finnally i found my mom in the crowd she had dust all over here i was trembling with fear i said mom!!! whats going on. we had to walk home it was terrible. she told me to put her air mask on. i was sick that day because of the dust particles it looked like it had just snowed or something. it was so quiet out there. i felt like i was in a never ending war zone. my mom knew 3 people who died
