Touching, but I suppose she still don't know what her country was doing 
behind her back. :)


I was just a baby during the Camp David Accords.
I do not remember when President Reagan was shot.
The Iran Contra Hearings are a vague memory that I did not understand at the
time. I was 9 when the Challenger exploded.  I was watching MTV when it 
happened. I was 13 at the start of Desert Storm and no one I knew was directly
involved.  I did not see how it affected me. I was in high school when Waco 
happened.  It seemed so far away. I was 19 when the Murrah building was 
destroyed.  I was shocked, but wrapped up in college life. I was 23 during 
Columbine. I wondered what was happening in our schools.
Today, I cried.

There is sobbing of the strong,
And a pall upon the land;  
But the People in their weeping
Bare the iron hand;
Beware the  
People weeping
When they bare the iron hand.

Not really. I don't carry a SSN(social security number). But Hongkong is 
definitely tightly linked to US regarding exchange rate. Never knew 
why Woner whether our Chief Executive Mr. Donald Tsnag has left US 
or not... bad timing...@_@

I know you all have been bambarded by all the e-mails, but this really
touched me b/c I am a teacher.

My Generation

I am one of the youngest members of Generation X.

I was just a baby during the Camp David Accords.
I do not remember when President Reagan was shot.
The Iran Contra Hearings are a vague memory that I did not understand at the
time. I was 9 when the Challenger exploded.  I was watching MTV when it 
happened. I was 13 at the start of Desert Storm and no one I knew was directly
involved.  I did not see how it affected me. I was in high school when Waco 
happened.  It seemed so far away. I was 19 when the Murrah building was 
destroyed.  I was shocked, but wrapped up in college life. I was 23 during 
Columbine. I wondered what was happening in our schools.

Today I am 25.
I am a daughter.
I am a sister.
I am a wife.
I am a teacher.
I touch the future everyday.

For twenty-five years, I have stood with my hand on my heart and recited the
Pledge and the sang the Star Spangled Banner.
For twenty-five years, I have said these words and not understood their
significance.
I watch my students roll their eyes when they are required to do the same
things in the morning.
September 11th, I watched the news and saw thousands of Americans die.

Today, I said the Pledge and I sang the Star Spangled Banner.
Today, I understand what those words mean.
Today, I know what it means to be an American.
Today, I cried.
