9/11

Everyone has their own personal memory of 9/11. I was in science in the 7th grade and our teacher gave us an idea what happened but we didn't understand. We were all worrying but weren't too sure why. We were told that a plane crashed into the two towers but it didn't really set in until I got out of school and was able to see the footage on tv.

It was a very scary event whether it directly affected you or not. My mom told me my Uncle had affiliation with the Pentagon and I was hoping all of my family members were okay. Most of my family lives/works in MD/DC.

One of my classmates found out that her Dad died. It was just horrible.

A year after I went with my Uncle to NYC and ground zero was such a sight. It was my first time going and to see ruins.
