When 9/11 took place I was at school. My teachers had heard the news but werent sure if they could tell us or not. All day we could see in their face that something was wrong but we had to wait until we got home to find out the news. I remember my mom was almost in tears and I was just to shocked to say anything. I mean, what do you say when you find out something like that? My moms co-worker has a daughter who was born on 9/11 a few years earlier. It was her 4th birthday and my moms co-worker didnt know what to tell her so he threw her the party anyway. How can you tell a 4 year old she cant have a party because terorists attacked? When they went out to dinner that night everyone was giving them dirty looks and one person even made a mean comment. I think thats one of the meanest things a person could do.

I was in school (8th grade) and it came on the tv in my typing/business class room. I lived next to Seymour Johnson AFB, where a lot of kid's parents worked. we all were scared that our parents might get called up and have to go somewhere or that the base could get hit.
Basically we sat around for the rest of the day singing kum-ba-yah.


And yes, I know a kid that was born on 9/11/89. It's not a really big deal for him or anyone, but everyonce in a while I think "Wow, what a wonderful birthday he must have had"

I was in my classroom when a student of mine came in to tell me that a plane had gone into a building in New York. I thought her English was poor so I went about explain that her sentence structure was poor. She said "NO". Come see on the TV what happened. It is all over the news channels this morning at 10.30 am. I was just so surprised.

I was almost thirteen years old. At my school they did not tell us because they were retarded and thought we'd panic. But the teachers were acting odd that day and it was picture day too. So I found out on the bus on the way home.

I was driving to the library when I heard about the first plane flying into one of the towers. When I drove to my mother's house, I told her, and she turned the tv on. By then the second plane had flown into the other tower and it had already collapsed. We watched the other one collapse. My first reaction was that the US should nuke Iraq, even though I had a friend from Iraq.

I was at home phoning my mom to wish her a happy birthday. She didn't have a happy birthday that year. One of my good friends birthday is also that day. So sad. Now forever they will remember that something terrible happened on their birthday. Pretty hard to celebrate knowing that.
