On September 11,2001 I was at school in an art class when a teacher from one of the other classrooms came and told our teacher that a plane had crashed into the World Trade Center towers.Our class interested and shocked at what we had just heard had the teacher turn the television on so that we could see just what had happened.When the news footage appeared we could see that the first tower was on fire and the secon was still standing.Just a while later our eyes still set on the television cought a glimpse of a second jet liner crashing into the other tower.After seeing these images we knew that this was no accident and that someone was attacking us.Soon after this the bell rang and we were dismissed to our next class as if nothing had happened but the images we saw left everyone talking and wondering.The very end of the school day our last period teacher instead of avoiding talking about what had happened we talked about it getting the facts straight.When I finally returned home,that nigt we all sat in silence an wondered who was behind all the chaos.
