It hasn't really changed at all, I just go on with my life.

I think the lives lost should be remembered.

Nmah story story

I was only eleven years old in sixth grade when I was taking a science test in third period. An announcement came on telling for us to pray for he people who died in the plane crashes. I didn't know what he was talking about, until they closed the school at around 1pm. We had a TV in the classroom, so we turned it on, since my parents hadn't picked me up yet. It said that 3 planes crashed in New York, D.C., and Pennsylvania. At the time, I just went on with it.
