I was in 4th period french when I heard something had happened. The room I was in didn't have a T.V. so we did not really know what was going on. Then as we were going down to lunch someone said,"The Twin Towers have been hit." Well I thought that it was just a rumor. When we got down to the lunch room the teachers had the T.V. going and they were talking really quiet. That was when I saw it. The channel was showing the first plane crash into the building.
For the rest of the day everyone was numb. I just couldnt believe it. Everybody had questions but the teachers just said to watch the T.V. When I got home I turned on the T.V. and watched the whole story. It took a few days to sink in. It was just so unbelievable.
