From my cousin:
It goes without saying that my classmates thought it was really a terrible thing that they have heard ever. And me,too..... Some said it could make World War 3 happen. TVs had been repeating the scene of the plane crashing into WTC..... On that night,I chatted with a friend who lives in New York by IM. He is 13 years old. It seems that he didn't care about it....He said WTC "BOOOOOOOM"..... I've been praying for the victims and world peace since " it " had happened. God bless America and the world...
He lives in Taiwan, and he was like the first person who e-mailed me about the tragedy. It goes to show you how connected the world is, when a boy in Asia can hear about the WTC tragedy within an hour of its happening...
