| My Thoughts and Impressions |
I can't believe what happened that day. I mean, I don't even know those people who died but I still feel bad like I'm going to cry, but I don't. I mean if you think about someone who died might have been related to you somehow. When I heard about it a teacher came up and wanted to talk to us about the planes. . A kid and I sat next to the door and the kid overheard the Twin Towers had gotten hit with hijacked air planes and were likely to fall down. When he said Twin Towers I thought they were the ones in Overland Park, because I didn't know about the "Twin Towers". It was about 10:00. A week after that I wrote a thank you letter to the closest firemen, doctors and police. Even though they never wrote back I still felt great. I know I will never forget what happened. Even though airplanes are more safe I'm still afraid of going on them. My Mom and Dad heard it on the news about both of the planes. First my mom heard about the first airplane in the car. Then when she got to work they talked about it. Then they heard about it on the radio at work. The people who died probably thought, when they woke up, the last thing on their mind is that they were going to die that day. Tomorrow everyone has to wear red,white,and blue. Were also going to have a moment of silence. It's hard to believe that today was the actual day it happened. It seems like yesterday it happened. It doesn't feel like a year ago. I can't believe it was the beginning of last year. It doesn't seem like it. My Mom even got to drive past it when she was a kid. There was even a mom on the news who just got off the phone and someone that worked with her said a plane just hit the trade center. The mom called him back and said get out of there a plane just hit your building. He started talking but she hung up to let him go. But he never made it home. She had never even said I love you. I can't believe this happened I just can't. There were several places that got hit by hijacked air planes like, The Pentagon, The towers obviously, and by a little house. For Christmas we got my Dad a DVD player and a DVD. The DVD was about 9/11. Even when I was writing about it in my journal there was a sad song on and I started crying. Whenever someone talks about it or even talks about New York I feel weird and sad inside. I always wonder if their just going to leave the spot where the twin towers were for a memorial or make a new one. I went onto the Internet at all these sites and printed lots of pictures and facts about the twin towers and made a book. It was sad enough so I hope it dosn't happen again. Alisha Fifth Grade |
