9/11: 5 years later

[Dark Method]

So here we are five years later.

I'm just wondering where you were this day five years ago, what you were doing, how you felt, and how you feel now.

Myself, I was on my way to work and I stopped at the local A&W for a coffee before hopping on a bus, and I caught a re-play on CNN showing the planes crashing into the twin towers. I was in shock pretty much, and I really didn't believe what had happend.

I spent the day at work, with my co-workers watching TV, and reality sank in slowly. We closed our buisness for the day and tried to understand how and why.

I never knew anyone personally who was in the towers at the time, but I felt like I did, and I still do.

Still to this day, I find it hard to understand why people would do such a thing. I think we have come a long way since 9/11, but we still have such a long way to go.

My heart goes out to all the victims, friends, family, and to all the firefighters, and other people involved in the 9/11 tragedy.

I was in 7th grade, 5th period, art and I was pissed as fuck. I felt and feel so bad for the victims and their familys.

dude that's pretty lame...

well i was 10 at the time, i had just woken up and i stumbled into the living room and saw on the news that a plane crashed into one of the towers, then i watched as the second one hit. it took a little for reality to sink in, i was confused and kind of scared. the marine corps base i lived on went to lockdown andno one could leave or enter. i was kinda glad not to have to go to school though.

It started before school started here. (like earlier in the morning)

We didn't do a single thing at school that day. We watched the news all day. I thought the whole country was being bombed at first.
