I remember walking into my 4th period class and seeing the television on. I hadn't heard anything of the attacks and I looked up and saw a plane hit tower 1. At first I thought it was an accident, until tower 2 got hit. My mouth dropped open and my eyes widened. I'd never been so scared in my life. Not really concentrating on the project I was working on, I put my attention towards channel 7. Tower 1 had collapsed. Thats about the time my eyes watered and I couldn't speak. Then went tower 2. I was so confused. I didn't know what to think. The day was long and sad and everywhere I went, were puddles of tears. Later that night I had to work and the talk of the WTC was going all throughout the restauraunt. I just wanted to go home. The thought of it all made me sick and I left. I'll never forget 9/11. I also want to let everyone from New York and those who lost someone, that I pray for them everynight. May god bless
