Journal #1

Saturday September 11, 2004 -

 

Well this day is a day of memories for many. Today is the three-year anniversary of the assault to our freedom by the terrorist cell Al Queda upon the World Trade Center in New York City, The Pentagon, and some field in Pennsylvania.

 

I have so many thought on that matter that to write them all down I would need a whole lot bigger of a web page to put it on. However, I will tell you this much of the situation. I hate the fact that some prick thinks that it is funny to kill so many innocent people. I think that he did it because America represents something that he does not have. FREEDOM! He wanted to take something from us, to dominate us in some sick way. I do not like that at all.

 

Bush is a whole other subject, but I will touch on it a little here tonight. I think that he is the reason for this whole Damn war in the first place...he just can't play nice with other countries is all...But enough about Bush...because if I go too far into that topic then I will need to have it published as a novel...:)

 

It is my beliefs that if two countries have a problem with each other...well then why drag all the innocent people into the situation, considering the two GOVERNMENTS that are having the problem to begin with. Therefore, the logical solution would be to have the two leaders of government for the nations deal with it themselves. They should just go out in the middle of nowhere and smack each other around for a while; and then go back to ruling their countries. That way the death toll would be zero...but hey I am just a snot nosed know it all 18 year old who doesn't know what he is talking about...well at least in the eyes of the US Government that is.

 

So I kinda got a little off topic there for a little bit...Sorry. Okay, now we go back to 9/11. That was a scary day for me...I remember where I was the exact instant I found out about it. I was in my Clay Design class at Roosevelt when Ms. Pieren came in with a TV so that we could watch the news about it. I will be honest at first I thought the whole thing wasn't that important...just another accident...Then the plane hit the Pentagon and that was it for me...My father was supposed to be either on his way there or on his way back...at the time I wasn't sure. All I knew was that my father was on a plane heading to or from the Pentagon. To say the least I had to leave class (After dropping my project which took my awhile to do in the first place :(...) I went home and called my dad...couldn't get a hold of him....well I am kind of getting personal here aren't I?

 

Besides the hour is late and you probably aren't wanting to hear about how my father was safe and wasn't even on a plan at the time of the incident. (He had a lay-over).

 

Here are just some of the things that I have to say about 9/11. If you want to hear more email me and I will tell you the rest of the story. I will be happy to tell you it all...it is a very touching story of suspense and relief...you should check it out...though I am not going to post it on the web page for it is too long.

 

Nevertheless, for now...goodnight and Sleep well...And take courage that our contry still stands as strong as it ever was before some prick had a bad day!
