I still remember where I was when I heard the news....walking into a North American Anthropological theory class....some girl was crying and we are like what? She says have you not heard? The US is being attacked....she had family in New York. The prof let us out and most classes ended up beaing cancelled to many people were upset.

I was in junior year high school orchestra at the time. I thought it was some sick joke when they announced it on the PA, cuz it was so unbelievable.
I live in NY about an hour and a half from the city.

[Sim.The.GoSu]

Very sad indeed, I have family there, but they weren't in the city.

I was sleeping.

I was walking to a business class and saw the second plane live. When I got there, someone drug a tv in and we watched tv and talked about it for a while. Then someone suggested donating blood and so we all walked to the campus blood donation thing and got in line.

My GF's father worked in the world trade center. He lived, but more than half of his co workers died.

I thought about it much today at work because on our food products, we have to put little day dots on them when we go bad and I had to write 9/11 over and over again... makes yah think.

I was in my english class when another teacher came in and said a plane crashed into the world trade center. We all thought, like a small single engine aircraft, but then we went to our History classroom which has cable TV and we were like :cheesy:

I heard teachers talking about it in algebra but didnt find out until next period in english. We watched the tv for the rest of the day in all classes. I was a freshmen.

i was in 7th grade, was in some history class.

a good friend of my father's died that day... RIP.

[DeamonMonkey]

My dad woke me up, and yelled at me to get downstairs fast. Then at my middle school we watched cable in class for about half the day. We stopped when the reporting got repetative, but nobody could pay attention in class at all.

[gingerbreadman]

no one said anything at my school. the one time i did talk to somone about it they said the towers collapsed and i thought he was kidding or somthing didnt find that out till i got home.

[mepersoner]

MTV was just rerunning footage of the planes crashing into the buildings over and over when I woke up.

It was... sad, very sad. I was pretty angry about it.

[AuraAllan]

Im from Denmark and i just returned from work when i heard that WTC was under attack. I rushed to the TV and saw the second plane hit. I was stunned. Was this real? I watched CNN for the next ~12 hours still wearing my work clothes, stunned and angry.

Sad. So sad. RIP

Personally i found it kind of enlightening to see that America needs to have better defenses and such, but hey, im Arabic.

thats a terrible thing to say. thats like us saying we are happy we bombed Iraq...

[GDawgUnit]

I loved it when we bombed the crap out of Iraq, they deserved it just as much as America deserved to be hit.

Please no arguments here, some people did some great things on a horrible day, what was done afterwards should be discussed somewhere else.
