No, I didn't, but my parents did. Nothing's changed about America for me. It's the same pretty much.

Nmah story life changed

It hasn't changed much really. I act the same, talk the same, etc. I'm just kind of tired of hearing about what happened. I also don't like how the whole country is suddenly a patriot nation. It annoys me that it took a violent act like this to bring out their American Pride.

Nmah story remembered

It was an event to be remembered. It's like Pearl Harbor, but modern and scarier. That's all.

Nmah story story

I was in my art class when I heard what had happened in New York, Pennsylvania, and at the Pentagon. I really didn't think of what was going on, since I had no clue what the severities of the attack were. I went to third period (World Geography) thinking nothing of it. My brother came to get me during class, to take me home. On the way home, he had a song by Cold playing, called "End of the World". It made me think: "What if this is it? What is this IS the end of the world?". I was scared for my life a bit, and went home and went on as normal.
