It's amazing how accurate we remember this stuff. The only other thing I can remember so vividly is the london underground bombings. Also when I learned that Paris 2012 is no more |
This will be a defining moment in our generations' lives. There was Kennedy's assasination, man's first step on the moon and the Challenger space shuttle disaster (although I vaguely remember that, but seeing as how most of you were pretty young when 9.11 occured, i;m including the Challenger incident).
This will be one of those things that will forever be etched in our minds because we lived through it and saw firthand the accounts and repurcussions of 9/11. our kids will ask us where we were and what we were doing.
I remember vividly & exactly about that day. Everything, i even remember the sky outside being a bright azure blue, not a cloud in the sky, i remember the smell and what i was wearing that day and who i talked to and everyone on my freshman dorm hall glued to the TV all day and listening to the accounts. I saw the 2nd plane hit the tower and thinkng " this is a hollywood movie" woke my roommate up and we watched the 2nd plane hit. I remember frantic phonecalls from people on campus to parents back home. I remember my teacher canceling class and breaking down crying because she knew someone who worked in the 2nd tower. I remember just being very shocked and numb all day.
It's something that I will never forget as long as I live
