Nmah story story

On the morning of September 11, 2001, I remember getting ready for school. I was in the 8th grade at Fulton Middle School. As I was almost ready I heard my mom shreek while on the phone with my dad. I ran into her room as I stood there, in shock to witness the first plane hit the WTC. There was a huge explosion and so much fire and dust. The news cast kept filming the tragedy as people jumped from the buidling to get away from all of it. I couldn't believe that this was actually happening. I was apart of this generation that witnessed the terrorist attack.
