NLC 1301: Blog 3: 9/25/2012 H Acevedo


When i saw the newspaper, magazine, TV and heard on the radio that the United States of America was under attack, my heart broke into pieces. My reaction was exactly like Bernie, how can a big building would become empty in a fast time. I was in El Salvador during that time, I was just 5 years old. My parents came to America when i was one year old. I was in class and in the announcement of the school, the Principal said to turn on the TV . I remember that the TV was an old TV from the 90's, it was small and it was black and white.  I was just a little kid, everyone in class was saying it was amazing how the airplane crush, my grandmother went to school for me. I found out that my parents where working by there during that time. I started crying , i remember my tears coming out, knowing that my parents where there just broke my heart up. I didn't want anything bad to happen to them. My grandmother try to contact all the people and all the places where they could find my dad or mom.  When the second airplane hit the second tower, i could it take it. I felt sad,worry, i couldn't even describe it. In the TV they where showing people trowing them selves from the towers. It was sad watching it, watching innocent people dying do to political problems. I told my grandmother to turn the TV off , i couldn't take it no more, i was sad. At night i heard the phone ringing, i answers and heard my moms voice. I was so happy to hear her. She told me that she was OK and that she wasn't working that day. My dad didn't work that day also ,because my mom was sick. I cry of happiness i was happy that my parents where OK, but sad of that families that lost family members.
