Today marks the 8th anniversary of the terrorist attack of 9/11.
Please take a moment to remember the ones who lost a loved one, and also thank those who sacrifice their lives for us. I still remember everything from that morning.
I was in college me and a couple other of my friends had just finished our fist class and were heading to the cafeteria for some breakfast where before we entered another friend stopped us and told us a plane had just hit one of the towers from the World Trade Center, it was early in the morning so we though he was BS’in, he said it was true that all the Tvs in the cafeteria were tuned into the news. So we walked in and its just packed, and yeah every single TV was tuned into some type of news channel, we see the video of the first plane hitting and just went Wow..
We all went this guy is stupid probably not awake yet, we though it had been an accident, and just as we were getting our food…. Booom! The 2nd plane hits., our jaws just dropped and we knew this was no accident no more, we just looked at each other and asked if that was the same (first plane) or not, it wasn’t .
We hurried back to our next class really not knowing what was going on , confused, scared everything. About and hour later we learned what was going on. A few hours later campus was closed, classes canceled and we were all sent home.

Plussed! I was asleep as im in a diff time zone than you. My dad woke me up early and told me. I was shocked.
I was a Junior in High School and just got to my second class study hall, it was in the cafeteria. So we were all sitting there when a teacher comes by and tells us to quickly turn on the tv. The first plane had just hit and as we were watching the news the 2nd one hit. by then teachers and students walking by had all stopped to see what was going on. the whole period we watched the news later hearing about the plane going down in Pennsylvania. Class still went on but there were counselors for anyone who needed them.
<3 to those we lost :'(
