Answer 1

I live in Iran so the morning there in USA was our evening here in Iran.
I remember I had gone for a walk with my father and when we got back and turned on the TV, we both got shocked. I asked my father "Do you think whether Iranian regime is involved or not? What will happen to us?" and my father said "Politic is a dirty game and sometimes many innocents should be killed to become an excuse for acts of those who want to govern the world."
And now after 6 years, I understand that he was totally right!
PS I was in 11th grade too!

Sleeping in. I didn't have to be at work until 10:30 but my mom called me and said to turn on the TV. I started watching 30 minutes (or so) before the first tower collapsed. The second collapsed on my way to work as I heard on the radio. They sent us home early from work as we were a mutual fund company and were tied into the market.

I was in 2nd grade (in class) when that happened.

I woke up to drive my mother to the airport. She was going back to New York after a short stay in Los Angeles. We didn't turn on radio or TV that morning, and when I got to the L.A. airport, it was EMPTY!

The security guard flagged us down and asked us to leave. When we asked why, he said "because of what happened at the WTC". Confused, we turned on the car radio and found out about the attacks.
