As of tomorrow, it will be September 11th, and two years ago from that day I remember how it happened.
I was in my class talking with my friends right after we finished our vocals. The bell just rang at 9:30 when we were hurrying out and I was heading to get to my Drafting class. Right when I picked up my book, I saw that my music teacher turned it on CNN, and it showed smoke plumming from a building. I thought, "Whoa, what's going on?" So I go to my locker, grabbed my book and when I was heading to my class, I saw my gym teacher running out with a very serious look on his face. At the time, I couldn't see what the buildings were, but then I sat with my friends and watched the tv for the next two blocks (I had the same teacher back to back). They said two planes had struck the World Trade Centers, and replaying the footage, I kept thinking this was impossible and I sat in disbelief when I saw the buildings collapse. It was horrifying to say the least watching people jump from the windows, and watching the reporters run as fast as they could because they were so close to the buildings.
Even when they show it on Discovery, it still makes me watch in awe as to what happened. So sad this day had to take place in the history books...
