I had just woken up for school and i was up a little early so i turned on the tv. The news was saying that a plane just hit the wtc. I was thinking how stupid can someone be to hit the wtc. Then as i watched in awe as the second plane crashed into the second building and then i knew that it wasnt just an accident. That it was an act of hate by someone so spiteful that they could so easily take many lives. I had to go to school so i got ready and came even though i didnt want to. To my suprise, in almost every class we just watched it unfold. I remember the people jump out and thinking of how hard that would be to be faced with a choice to jump or be scorched. I never thought that they would fall, but unfortunately they did. Everyone was in awe in the class and there were even some gasps. As the day went on u could tell that it wasnt the same around the school and that it would never be the same in the whole country.
