On this day I was in 3rd grade, unlike the others in my class, I actually remember that day. I was in class over in Schleswig, IA, and they announced it over the intercom that a plane had crashed into one of the twin towers. In my class they had tvs, we'd turned it on and were watching the North Tower light up in flames. After a little bit, while we were still watching, the second plane crashed into the South Tower. Til this day, I still get goosebumps remembering watching the second plane crash, and thinking about the lives that were lost. The school ended up sending us home early, when I got home my mom wasn't there, after a few min. she arrived, she'd gone to our school to get me and my silbings, after being really scared for us.
9/11 is also my brother's birthday, so in years after, while others were sad, we were celebrating.

Having a birthday on 9-11 would be really weird!
