At the time I was at my high school, Walnut Ridge HS, in the eleventth grade.I was in my Chemistry class when the principal camr over the speaker announcing that two american planes going to D.C. had been hijacked. He then told us all to pray for the well-being of evaryone on board. I didn't realixe how serious it was until I got to fifth period, spanish class, that the teacher Ms. Meier had the t.v. on. At first we thought it was a mivie, but when we seen that the headlines said "attack on WTC" that we realized something wasn't right. The school was quiter than usual. Everyone looked around in fear. Their were remarks that our President was aboard his airplane hiding so that only made matters worse. That day will go down in history and I will never forget how many innocent poeple we lost that day!
