I can remember what happened on 9-11 as if it jus happened. I remember the classroom phone ringing and I just got a feeling that something was wrong. The teacher went and turned on TV right after the first tower was struck. We discussed it as a class, at that time we didn’t know why the tower was hit. We thought that maybe it was an accident. Then as we watched the second tower get hit we knew this was no mistake. At that moment a sudden fear hit everyone in the room. Where would the next target be? How big of an attack was thisd going to be? We heard about the pentagon and the phane that had crashed in PA. Most fortunately, no one I knew was killed in the WTC, Pentagon, or on any planes. I was still scared that maybe it wasn’t the end of the attack. I think that this, while being a tragey, may have been a blessing in diguise at the same time. This, while horrible, united America, and brought us closer togethr to the people we love. y heart goes out to those more greatly affected than I, and those who lost people they loved.
