I'll never forget where I was on September 11th, 2001. I was in 7th grade. I was getting up and getting ready for school. I turned on the news and couldn't believe what I was seeing. Right before I walked out the door, I saw the 2nd plane hit the Twin Towers LIVE It was such a sad day!! I couldn't stop thinking about all the people who worked there. All the families who didn't know if their loved ones were alright. I can't even imagine the pain that they all must go through every year on this day!!

I wanted to take a moment to thank all the firefighters, all the brave citizens who ran into the building and near that area and who were rescuing people. I want to thank everyone who has ever donated to the cause..

Anyone who lost someone, my heart goes out to you. I can't even imagine your pain. I want you to know that there are MILLIONS of people who think about you every single year on this day. People that care and are here for you if you ever need to talk.

We will never forget...

I was in the ninth grade when it happened. It was during the first class of the day, and everyone wanted to find out what happend, but we had to wait until the next period to find out. The principal wouldn't let us turn on our TV to find out. My parents pulled me and my brother out of class.

I think it's a day none of us will forget. It's just one of those things that stands out in our minds. I mean, that's the main thing I remember from that year...

It was such a devastating day.

I watched a memorial program on television this year and I ended up crying again.

The whole thing did not have an impact on me directly, as in I am not an American, nor did I know anyone who became a victim that day, but it has had some sort of impact. It was just a horrible thing to happen.

It really was a tragedy, but I heard that a lot of people were saved that day because they didn't get on a plane or didn't go to work. Did you know that Seth MacFarlane was supposed to be on one of those planes that later crashed into a building?
