Well i woke up at 7:00 like usual. It felt like any other day. But then all of a sudden i heard my sister say that someone crashed a plane into the world trade towers. And the first thing i thought was that it was a freak accident. That was until the 2nd plane hit the tower minutes later and that was when i realized it was no accident. This was the first time i experienced something so tragic and i didnt know how to react. School became completely different. Walking to class i could hear a radio on full blast commentating on the attack. It felt like we were at war. I felt sick that day. Lost my appetite. The whole week all i saw was 9/11 on the news. 9/11 changed the world and life would never be the same again.
