I was working and writing an email to my brother when someone in the office said that one of the towers had been hit by a plane. We all ran into the kitchen where there was a TV and just stared in disbelief. Then we saw the 2nd plane and then later the tower collapsed and we were all in shock.

Today, I remember all who fell and those they leave behind. God Bless you.

When I first found out about Sept.11 i was in my school's cafetieria. My friend came over and told my table that some people crashed a plane into the World Trade Center to steal some money, she wasn't sure about what exactly happened. So i sort of heard what happened but i didnt hear how serious it was until there was an announcment over the PA system by our principal. When i got home i rushed off the bus and ran to turn on the TV and saw all of those people and i just broke down in tears. my parents came home early that day and talked to me and my brothers about what happened.

I found out in the last class of school no one had told me. I had heard people talking about some planes hitting some building but I thought they were talking about a movie or something. When I found out I cryed for the rst of the day and while I walked home. When I got home, that night my family cryed and prayed together for the victims and their familys. I think though all this my faith in God has only gotton stronger and has made my family closer together. I still pray to the victims familys. God Bless America.

On September 11, 2001 I was in the Ayer Middle School technology class, completing my work, when my teacher told us that a plane hit the pentagon. Like ten minutes before we were informed about the pentagon, one of my fellow classmates (class clown) told many of us that 2 planes hit the Twin Towers in New York City, and many of us thought that he was joking, others, like me knew that for once he was serious and just sat there stunned. To this day, on September 11, 2002, I am still schocked that this could have happened to the United States.

A couple nights later, I was in my small town, and we held a candle light visual for all of those who lost loved ones, and all the brave souls who tried to help the ones that we lost.

I try now, not to joke about suicide bombings and things that have happened in the middle east. It has affected my family greatly, and I grieve for all whom this is a day for a death in the family.

GOD BLESS AMERICA- ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL

I was very shocked when I saw what was happening on tv. I was home sick with broncitus, and my mom came running in all upset and crying( she is a very emotional person with everything but, in this case I can understand)telling me what had and was happening. Then after she told me what had happened I changed the tv to CNN and watched it for a very long time. I am now very mad that someone was so cruel and unsinsitive, and that they killed many Americans, and parents of children who needed them.
