In school, just coming home and mum says about a plane hitting a building. The site of those buildings burning is something that's impossible to forget.

I was returning from a week's leave. Just got back on the base and was getting ready for my first day back. I stepped into the squadron canteen for a cup of coffee. Everyone was standing around the TV, very silent. After getting my coffee, I stepped up to see what was going on. I thought a sport event or something like that. I got there just in time to see the second tower hit. Everyone in the room knew that this was no longer an accident and this is more than likely the footsteps of a war. We were right. Withing two weeks, we had our warning orders and were packing up planes.

I was at work in Queens. I don't drive, and my office let us out so I figure I will take the bus all the way to the bronx (where I live) All the subways were closed and by the time I got to flushing queens, the bridges were closed too. I took another bus to astoria, and walked the rest of the way home (I had to walk over the triboro bridge, the bruncker expressway to get to the bronx.) my whole trip started at 11:00am and I didn't get home until 4:30pm

I was in school, in the fourth grade. In my school, and I guess in most others, you stayed in the same class unless you had "specials" or related arts activities. I was in English and the teacher next door ran in to tell my teacher. But, I had no idea about what was going on. But the parents and teachers were frantic, considering the fact that I live in New Jersey, a short way from New York.

I was in my car on the way to work when I heard the news of the first plane hitting the WTC. I thought the radio DJ was making a bad prank or joke. By the time I got to my office, the news just hit about the second plane hitting the WTC. Nothing felt real after that.

Me and my brother were on this gov't base here in our town waiting for our customer contact to come so we could do some work. Our contact was late to meet us at 9am. So the security guard at the desk said a "small plane just hit the tower". About 12 noon the military shut down the base and we had to leave, couldn't finish our job.
Then I stayed at home for 3 days watching foolish fox news.

I was asleep. Off from work that day. My room mate began banging on my door like crazy and I woke up and opened the door as I stood there wrapped in my blanket.
He yelled and screamed and hollowered, but I was just waking up so it made no sense to me. he stopped screaming for a minute and pointed at the TV.
I was shocked seeing a pillar of smoke as thick as it was and watching the buildings barf out buckets of flame me feel like I was having a nightmare and that I hadn't even woken up.
I sat there for about 30 minutes, not fully convinced that what I was watching was real, until I started crying.
that was a day that I will NEVER forget

Preparing for work the TV was on and the news about a plane that crashed on WTC Tower 1, then when I was driving to work I turned the radio on to continue hearing about the incident, then the radio host confirmed that a second plane crashed in the other tower so I start to think that that incident was Terrorism. :)

I was asleep and I got a call from my sister. She was yelling into the phone..."Amy!! Turn on the TV!! There was a terrorist attack in NY.."
I was still sleepy and it didn't really sink in until I turned on the TV and watched the horror unfold along with the rest of the world...sobbing in front of the TV.
The thing is, too, that a good friend of ours worked in one of the towers and we spent the whole day in knots, wondering what happened to him.
Just thinking about it makes me ill.

I was at work. Orthodontic office, with no TV's or outside radio. We were literally relying on our patients to tell us what was going on as they were coming in. I didn't know just how terrible it was until I got home and turned on the news.
Anyone who lost a loved one on 9/11, my thoughts are still with you, six years later.
