September 11th
A day of tradgedy
I'm sure you have all heard about the chaos in America. If not, I'll explain. Of you have, go to the next paragraph. The World Trade Center's 2 towers in New York have been destroyed. Two hijacked planes crashed into them purposely. Those towers were the largest in the country. Thousands of people were packed into them. There was also an attack on the Pentagon, in our nation's capital. I've heard several different numbers on the deaths but I know that it is SEVERAL thousand so far. All airplanes were grounded, and all airlines shut down in both the US and Canada, The Mexican border was also closed. There's a lot more but that is the biggest stuff.
   This is so unreal. I feel like I'm in some movie. Some fictional, can't-really-happen sort of movie. My mom and I found something so creepy it had to be planned. Today's date is 9/11. Look at that- 911. I mean, it really makes you think. Here I am worrying about how terrible I look this morning while people in New York are
dying. I had a half day at school today, it was scheduled before all of this. It was almost like, I was ashamed to smiled. Felt guilty for laughing. And worse, worrying about petty things. You know, average teenage bullshit worries. How shallow am I? So shallow that I could worry about the things I worry about while others are frantically trying to find out if their family is alive?!? I don't really know what to say. This could last. There's talk this could develop into World War III. I'm so fucking pissed. Why the hell do people do this? What could fucking drive someone to a level of insanity that would cause them to put hundreds of thousands of people in danger and billions in fear! I hope they catch these bastards and they are punished terribly. I'm gone.
