Nmah story story
I was in school during the September 11th attacks. I remember waking up and going to school just like a normal day. During first period a teacher comes in and tells my teacher that a hijacked plane had crashed into the first tower of the World Trade Center. My teacher immediately turned on the news and we saw the tower up in smoke. They were showing reaplay of what had happened. While watching the first tower burning in flames we witnessed the second plane come onto the screen and crash through the second tower. We knew this could be no accident. Our feelings went to the people on the planes and in the buildings as we watched the two towers callapse and leave a hole in the sky of New York City. By then we were in second period and parents were coming to pick up their kids. I however reamained in school and saw all the events including the crash into the Pentagon and the storie of the fourth flight crashing. Later that day as the death toll was counted up into the thousands i went into disbelief. When i heard of the heroic acts of the men on the fourth plane i was touched and my heart went to them.
