My Head on September 11

             Today, September 11, started out as a normal day. At about 7:20 AM my roommate woke me up and we got ready for school. When we got to school everything looked as if it was ok, which for the most part it was, at least from what I saw. Now it was 8:05 and we were sitting in class getting ready for class as I stared to notice that our teacher Coach Clopton was looking a bit disturbed. He was walking back and forth from the class the class next door to talk to the coach there. I could hear the TV on in the classroom next the one I was in. Then Coach Clopton came back to class and he told us that there was an accident that happened and the world trade center in New York. He told the class we could watch the news if we could pay attention and watch. We said "okay".
             I was watching the news hearing them talk about a plane that hit one of the towers at the world trade center. When they showed video clips of the crash I got very disturbed but did not think more of it then a plane that crashed and happened to hit there. Then the most disturbing part happened I was witching the live filming of the towers and I saw another plane fly by and slowly turn right into the second tower. I looked around the class and I saw everyone crunch their teeth and get real quiet. Then the lady on the news started talking about how all this could be a freak accident or a planed incident.
             Over the next two days as the whole thing started to come together I had a lot going through my head. Who and why would or could someone do this? All of these things were flying through my head at a hundred miles per hour. The more and more that I watched the news I still could not figure out what these people were thinking. Still to this day I"m confused. .
             Some of the feelings going through my head were to go over there and find the mastermind and all of his men and kill them all. This may resolve the problem on a short term but would not long term, there will always be someone else to take their place and come after us.
