My story: Stunned and angry
Sunday, September 11, 2011
I was just getting up when the phone rang. It was my daughter calling from Japan. She said, “What in the world is going on in the United States?”
I flipped on the TV, and shortly after saw the second plane hit. I was stunned in the same way as when President Kennedy was shot.
As I got to school that day, nobody could do anything but watch what was going on. I remember the anger that I began to feel as the events unfolded. I hope we don’t have go through something like this again before we start protecting our borders.
