tony's thread gave me the idea for this and since we're so close to the 4th anniversary, i thought i'd ask.
i was in the 9th grade, in my biology class, when one of the juniors came running into our classroom telling us we've been attacked. when we got a few more details, i started to get SO scared because 1. my sister went to school at NYU and since everything was cut off, didn't know if she was okay and 2. i have lots of relatives in manhattan. thank god they were all okay, but there was a handful of people from my town and other towns around me that were killed because we're just outside of NYC, including my brother's best friend's dad, who was actually 1 of the 2 firefighters that went the highest in the building when it collapsed.
my sister, who was in elementary school at the time, (leta112) actually came home that day from school and was like, "they wouldn't let us out of the school today because there was too much pollen!" or something like that. it was so sad how they couldn't even begin to tell the little kids what happened.
thinking of this day makes me cry
where were all of you when it happened?
