The morning of September 11th was a typical school day. We were in English class when our teacher told us that he heard that a plan had flown into the TwinTowers. I don't think I had ever really heard much about the TwinTowers before this, so I had to ask where they were. My teacher said that the TwinTowers in New York had been hit. About 1 or 2 hours later, we heard that they had collapsed and that thousands were either trapped or killed. We all watched the news during our gym class and were in a somber state. There was no joking and no laughing. We all felt sad for all who had family that were in the Towers. Truthfully, I was a little scared because I was afraid that something might happen close to our area. Then something did happen. A plane was flown into the Pentagon and a plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. That was a little too close to home. I was scared but I knew that I could trust in the Lord for protection.
