On friday when i got home i told my mom about what we discussed in class. My brother didnt really know what went on in 9/11, so we explained and then after we did he wouldnt shut up about it! the next day we watched videos on youtube and at night on fox there was a whole thing about 9/11, after that i went on the history channel and watched a whole bunch of 9/11 stuff on and at first i wasnt sad about it, but when my mom told me there was a daycare thing in there i cried so hard because i love little kids!!! and they all died because of the stupid terrorists!!!! i will hunt down the guy who planned the whole thing out!!!! and kill him!!
ReplyDeletemy family didnt talk about it because it would upset my sister and she didnt want to talk about it.
ReplyDeletewow there was a daycare? oh my god thats so sad, i wasnt here friday and didnt see the movie or here the discution, i heard it was really sad and some people got emotional, for thoughs pepole, i would like to say i would have felt the same, i remember 9/11 from when i was little i remember being really scared and sleeping in my moms room.
ReplyDeletemay everyone who passed away rest in peace,

During 9/11 we watched the history channel most of the day to learn about it. I was hard to watch but it was hard not too. Some people were forced to jump off the buildings to not be in fires. It was a really sad day.
ReplyDeleteAfter we talked about 9-11, I thought about it a little. What I didn't do, is talk about it with my family. My family never talks about it though, so I wasn't surprised.
ReplyDeleteI went home and talked to my mom about what happen in class today and i told her about the video i watched in class. she said yeah it was a devastating day for all of us. as i didn't want any of my kids going to school that day because i was the only parent there. your dad was back home trying to sell the house. also after all this happen no one wanted to bye a house so the stock market went down and everyone stopped trying to bye houses because they were in shock still. so my mom and grandma tryed to keep us kids inside as much as they could. and that was all that i remembered. i want to know how the terrorists would think that was okay to do something like that.
ReplyDeleteon 9/11 my family an i had a moment of silence. I thought about it for the entire day. I had an audition but i wasn't very pumped. i just can't fathom all those who lost their lives for no reason besides blind hatred and selfishness. i cant even comprehend the amount of loss on that tragic day.
ReplyDeleteMy story is as same as Bronte's in the way that I came home and we talked about what we talked about in class that day. We talked about where we both were that day, and what this means for our country. We also talked about how we should remember all the people that died in the towers.
ReplyDeleteI didn't spend anytime discussing 9/11 this past weekend. Even though I lived all the way across the country and had no family living there at the time, i still feels sad about all the people who's life's were lost. If 9/11 happened here instead of New York my life would have been completely different, and most of my family members would of died.

hello from Florida,
ReplyDeleteI was in New York on Saturday the 11th everyone in the city seemed like they were remembering what happened on that day because most of them witnessed it for themselves. my family talked about it a lot because my dad was in New York when it happened he said it was complete chaos because no one knew what had happened.
After we discussed 9/11 in class.I went home thought alot about what we disscussed I went online and and looked up stories about surviors and found my self sitting on the couch crying. Every year 9/11 gets to me Im not quiet sure why, because I dont have any family that was in the area at the time of 9/11.

My family did not spend very much time discussing 9/11. I though of the people n the building, the workers and how there story did not get told. I was quiet the whole day because i thought about it alot.

ReplyDeletemy family didn't talk about 9/11 at all and i have no thoughts or questions about the event
ReplyDeleteMy family and I usually have a quick chat about 9/11 each year. But this year my parents were out of town so i didn't talk about it at all. Sometimes its nice to get that kind of stuff out, other times you can just accept that it happened and move on
ReplyDeleteWhen we finished talking about 9/11 i ask my parnets if they remembered anything from it and they told me about how sad it was and how they were so scared. i feel really bad for any of the people that died in that attack.
ReplyDeleteI still can't believe it happend. The death of thousand of people. My family didn't really mention it though. I tryed to explain it to my younger sibilings and the twins just asked me why people would do somthing that bad to hurt other people. I couldn't respond. I'm so thankful for the fact that my family and friends are safe right now, and I think that 9/11 was a bit of a wake up call for those people taking life for granted each day.
ReplyDeleteMy family didnt talk about 9/11 at all over the weekend. I did think about the terrible things that happened that day though. It is just terrifying why someone would do such a bad thing.
ReplyDeleteThis weekend, on 9/11, I thought a lot about what happened during the attack. For me, it's difficult to wrap my head around how much damage that this attack created for the families, workers, and even the people of new york. I just feel so awful that the only stories people got out out was "if i don't see you again, i love you." to their families. While hearing the broadcast during class, it really taught me about it, and changed my outlook on it. -Georgia Hope
ReplyDeleteMe and my family didn't talk about it much this year, and I'm not sure why. But I did think about it quite a bit because I believe the people who lost their lives deserve recognition. My best friend from California's grandpa died helping people get out of the buildings so I always think about that and how sad it is. -Jared
ReplyDeleteKelly speaks out;
ReplyDeleteI agree totally agree with Ash.
Just to think about the fact that innocent people died and lost their lives for something they had nothing to do one single bit with.
It is something very hard to take a grip on. Imagining coming to work as a normal day, and then suddenly something awakening happens, its shocking. Even though, my parents do not talk to me about 9/11 on a daily basic, I do something here and there, ask about the tradegy, and they told me that EVERYONE couldn't believe there eyes. And, now we are prepared for whatever comes at America, expect the unexpected. And wishing the best for the families who lost there family members in the historical day..
XOXO, Kelly Le.
Well After Listening To The 9/11 Radio Broadcast, I Was Completely Shocked. I Mean I Knew How Bad It Was, Becasue Of All The Death Ratio, And How It's Lasted For These Many Year. But, I Really Have Nothing To Say, Considering How Speechless I Am About The Event.
ReplyDeleteWhen it happened all i remember is seeing a picture of a plane hitting a building on the cover of a newspaper on the kitchen table. I didn't understand why mom was crying.
ReplyDeletei thinks it is horrible of how 8 terrorists could high-jack 4 planes and almost bring the usa to its knees. i was at my house when it happened. my dad called my mom for her to come home because he was worried about here
ReplyDeletei dont remember much of it as a child except for my dad calling my mom in downtown seattle to come home because he worried for her. its terrible of how some people could highjack a few planes and killed so many innocent people
