I was only in seventh grade and I remember I was in writing class with my best friend Chelsea. Who better to share this kind of experience with than your best friend? Well we were in writing class and our teacher sent us both to Mr. A's room to get something there he had the tv on when all of a sudden I watched a plane crash into a building. Being young&nieve I didn't connect it to anything I thought they were just watching a "really cool" movie. Untill Mr. A turned to see everyone's full attention to the tv& immediatly turned it off and called the office. Chelsea&I went back to our teacher and we had to sit in class for two hours. Nobody told us anything. A little while my mom came to pick me&Chelsea up and she came to my house. Her mother was waiting at my house with some coffee for her&my mom&we had some cocoa. At that point we knew something was up they told us how someone killed many people today and we were like okay how? They explained the whole plane crashing thing. We were scared only 12 years old and our eyes were opened to a world of hatred. I remember sitting on my couch with my best friend sipping cocoa&watching atleast 12 times the "cool movie" plane crash into a building then a second, a third this one in Washington, and then another in a field. I watched the buildings fall, I watched people jump to their deaths, and I watched my mom cry because she knew the pilot of the first plane. And I knew in that moment on September 11th, 2001 I grew up&America grew closer. |
