I wrote this for skool. My u.s. history class in 9th grade in September 15, 2003. It’s about 9/11 it’s what I felt and stuff.

What I am about to write is about September 11th 2001. How people reacted, how I reacted, how the United states reacted to the incident. I will tell how it has changed, here, in the United States. I won’t be able to explain how the people that lost someone in this incident felt because I, myself, did not lose anyone.

I was in the 8th grade, in my Social Studies class, sitting down doing my work when the principal announced, on the intercom, to turn on the television. My Social Studies teacher, Ms. Janus, turned on the t.v. and right when it went on we saw the first plane hit the first tower and everyone gasped, the second one came and hit the second tower. We could see people jumping from the building and dust and pieces from the building not far behind. At first I was confused and didn’t know what was going on. People were talking about it and I was understanding more and more. I was shocked. My first thought ‘How is my sister taking this, it’s her birthday.’

Life, for me, hasn’t changed. the only difference, my sister celebrates her birthday with ‘the incident’. This whole thing gets me angry, the ‘incident’ thing. I only hate that it happened that day, not that it should have happened to begin with. I’m sorrie for those that lost someone, but I can’t be sad for people I don’t know, when I have someone I do know to be happy with.

I don’t really care what’s gonna happen in the future, as long as I have my family there with me. I don’t want anything to happen at the bottom of Texas either. Sorrie for those that can’t be there with those they lost. I just hope they can understand how I feel about this whole thing. How my sister, or anyone else that has there birthday on this day, feels when they have to celebrate it with a ‘sad holiday’, if it is a holiday (?).

In the end I hope everyone can move on, but not forget those lost. Keep them in there hearts, but let them rest in peace. If not then the person’s soul can’t leave in peace. Not everyone suffered a lose but there making everyone suffer, in my opinion. I don’t care about the building. I don’t care what happened to them. What I do care about is my sisters’ happyness on that day.

Well there it is please review. Any comments welcome.
