I went to visit the World Trade Center observation deck only less than a month before they were attacked on Augst 18, 2001. Although the pictures we took from the top are now more than priceless, it was a major shock to hear that they fell. When I found out about the attacks that occured, arrived to English class a few minutes early like I normally did at the time. One of my classmates comes in and says that he just heard on the radio that the trade center building were on fire but that he didnt know why. I didn’t believe him thinkng it to be ridiculous. But after we turned on the television, I knew it had to be true seeing it only with my two eyes. And, along with almost everyone else, I thought that the after the first plane hit the trade center it was an accident. Then, after learning that the second plane had hit we knew it was no accident.
