I know that I don't live as close to the WTC towers as most of you, but it scared me and the rest of my friends just as bad!

I'm only a student and I was at school on 9/11/01. The day seemed just like every boring school day. Then all of a sudden my Principle came in the room...whispered something into my english teachers ear. My english teacher was about to flip out...my teacher stopped are video and turned on the news, every stared at the tv. He turned the news on just in time to watch the second plane be crashed! Everyone in the class including me couldn't believe it, we didn't know what to do or say! Some started to cry, I didn't cry but I was horrified..cause my cousin travels for his job and he was in NY. As a matter of fact his was suppose to come home that day! I was so scared cause I didn't know if he was on the plane or not..
Glad to say he wasn't, and I'm really sorry for the families and friends of the ones who were on bored any of the planes!
