Hi my name is virginia, I'm 18 years old , I study at fairfax high school in fairfax county in virginia.On september 11th was at home watchng the tv and also I was very sick , that was the reason that I didn't go to school.
I woke up at 8:00 am and I turned on the tv , then I saw the news and I was on shock , I couldn't believe what I saw on tv , I would say that I saw eveything , that I was very sad , then I called my mother to tell her about that , and I called her but I couldn't get her , I didn't know what she was at that moment , and then I couldn't get her , after a few minutes later , I called her again , and she answered my call , I was so happy to get her, then she was like a little worried and she told me that she knew about those airplanes , and at that moment she was at the IRS , close to the pentagon , and she was driving , and she heard the crush of the airplane at the pentagon , and she told me that the rest of the cars sttoped including hers , and everybody was very scared , specially a old woman , then people started to evacuating .
she told me that she was so scary , and when she knew that it was an airplane she start to cry , and I started to cry too, I always think about that ,I always think about those inocent people, and I feel sorry for them , but I know there is one god above , and he is the only who can decide, but what I would like to say is that I believe in those people who died , and I know that they're happy right now , well , they are in someplace better than this world .
