When the tragic event that happened I still asleep , my dad was suppose to go to work cause he flies to Maui everyday and like his flight got canceled because all planes were grounded. So when i woke up i saw my did still here I said why are u still here aren’t u suppose to go to work then he said Look on the TV . i was shocked when this happened i thought that it was here but i was in New York . I felt scared cause later they bombed the Pentagon and i thought they would bomb Pearl Harbor next. Since our school is right by it. As days past the economy of our state started to decline and many people were left unemployed . Slowly our state is gain more better . Economical our country was effected by the down fall of the trade center . I just hope this doesn’t happened again and that we catch Ossama Bin Laden so he could pay back the damage that he has cause us. The only thing we could do now is just to Stand Strong America! “Put a little love in your heart And the world would be a better place!"

I got up at about 6:30 to a blasting sound of terror. I ran to my parents’ room just in time to see the first tower fall. I saw people crying, screaming and running to get out of the way of the massive building. That wasn’t the end… I had also found out that two other places were hit. Those places were that Pentagon and Camp David. I thought to myself man who would do such a thing to this wonderful country.
During the next few days of school every teacher and student was talking about the tragic events of 9/11. Every television turned to a station that had updates and stories. Our school even had a moment of silence where the whole school gathered around the flagpole.
When I found out that we were going to war I prayed every night that my cousins and other relatives the best. A lot of my family members are in the Armed Forces and I’ll admit I was really scared for them.
I would just like to say Thank-you to all of those to is out there fighting for our wonderful country.
GOD BLESS THE U.S.A!!!

The only reason I was even awake was because I had a job interview at 10 that morning.
I was watching the Today show and one of the hosts was talking to a woman on a cell phone as she saw the second plane hit the tower.
I still had to go to the interview though. It was interesting. Everyone in the building was in one of the conference rooms watching the news. I did two brief interviews and was essentially given the job on the spot. No one wanted to play the normal interview games. We weren't in the mood. I was asked about my qualifications, based on my resume. Then asked if I wanted the job.
All very sureal

I was in Washington, DC. Close to the Pentagon. My brother worked in the WTC. It was very scary.
