When the World Trade center got hit by the planes I was amazed. I was just waking up to go to school. I came down stairs to eat breakfast and the news was turned on. I heard my mom gasp, and I ran out of the kitchen. All I saw was the Twin Towers collapsing. at that moment I didn't know how or what made it fall. But then they put on the replay and I saw that two planes went right into them. I was shocked, terrified, and worried all in one. When I went to school everyone was talking about it. I really didn't know how important and what it would later do to our country. For a while I was even scared to fly. It was a sad day, but really made our country stronger.
