It was a B day at my high school and who knew something horrible was going to happen that morning….

I was going to class and I heard some of my peers joking that someone crashed into the world trade towers. I thought that someone did it accidently well when i arrived to my next period my principle announced that America had been invaded. I went in shock. Everything around me became silent. I quickly prayed to God to help me be calm. Then I realized one of my friends worked in the pentagon and I began to worry. My Criminal Justice teacher turn the channal on to channal one (a news channal for school). Once it was on I saw the most horrifying video of my life. They were showing how the trade towers were attacked my some afgans. I almost started to cry. Why would someone do such a horrible thing? No one has the right to go into our country and destroy it. Why us? But God told me to stay calm. From then on I knew America would never be the same.
