| I was right about to go to bed as it was around midnight. Right before I clicked the off button the news popped up and I sat there for the next 3-4 hours watching in horror. |

| oh man on this day six years ago, it was my first day of high school at stuyvesant high school, which is located like no more then 10 blocks away from the trade center. I can still remember how they made us walk all across town, then over the brooklyn bridge.So many of my friends parents died in that place. :( |

pinot gregio is good, my g/f is obsessed with it now.
i rememeber going to class early 6 years ago for an anthropology class taught by a lady from india. she mentioned that planes crashed into a tower, we said nawww. then after the test I went home and saw the news.
and of course my roommate had the remote and he was flipping between news coverage and a cheesy cycling movie on hbo.....when we flipped back we saw the towers collapsin. :(
that anthro prof missed 2 weeks of class after that, I think she was getting some threats...even though she was india. |

I'm not 100% sure.
But no one drives to the city.. they usually take some type of Mass Transit. After something like that I doubt MTA was running according to schedule. They prob stopped incase of another hit at a Subway. |

basically when it happened, the whole transit authority stopped, hence they had to evacuate over 2000 kids, and the best solution was to walk cross town to the bridge away from all the smoke and chaos. |

even in world history , i think. |
Not that much. When I turned the TV on and saw (live) the 2nd plane hitting the WTC, I thought an epic war was going to break out in the US. I feared for the death of innocent civilians because of a bellicose leader messed up in the head. This would be a major even in World History, because a global power would be brought down to its knees by fundamentalist rebels, and we'd hopelessly hate such shameful acts.
Turns out I was partially right.
The war happened in relatively unimportant countries, and the deceased are now as important to World History as those who perished in Darfur. Unfortunately, in a hundred years, they will most likely be part of a footnote in an encyclopedia. Once another president steps in, we'll find out that little has changed: the Middle East will be a mess, Afghanistan will be a poor landlocked country in Central Asia and America will be... America. |
