what's your 9/11 memory? Options

[*lolita kitty*]

well, as julia stated, tommorow is september 11th. so my question is, what was your 9/11 memory? by this, i mean, where were you when you found out? what else happened that day? here's mine:

i was in 4th grade. it was first period or something like that. they were starting to say the morning announcements, and then our principal was like "the twin towers have been knocked down". something along those lines. the whole day i was really confuzed, because i had no clue what the twin towers were. in social studies, my teacher turned on the tv and we just watched the news, the whole period. i remember a few kids at school crying that day too >.>. when i got home that day, i turned on the tv, and every single news channel had the story on it. me and my dad talked about it for awhile, and he explained what the twin towers were and such.

er- yeah. that was my 9/11. what was yours?

i was in 7th grade and i remember hearing about it, but didnt think anything of it. the teachers werent allowed to talk about it, so we just continued the day normally. on the bus ride home, a 9th grader at the time thought itd be cool to throw his backpack like a bomb to "prepare us". when i got home, i just remember watching the news all night because nothing else was on.
