I was five years old at that time. I was at kindergarten when the terrorist attacks happened. I came home from kindergarten and watched the news. I've got to say, society has gotten worse since 9/11. ____________________ Sunshine Realm Welcome to Aqmlm's, the only board with Al-Aq'mlmistrators! |

I actually have no idea. I'd have been only 11 back then. Probably at home. The world could always use more heroes! |

Miracles Happen When you believe... Level: 254 Posts: 1491/25311 EXP: 264171037 Next: 612288 Since: 07-16-12 From: Albany, NY OS: Windows 98 Last post: 149 days Last view: 149 days |
I had just started my senior year in high school, and our principal told us to turn on the TVs around second or third period... (there was a bunch of misinformation at first, but the day went on mostly as usual with classes still going on... we weren't sent home or anything)
Went home and looked at the news reports, then found out what had really happened... "Miracles happen, when you believe..."

♥8008 ✿4498 ★22 I went to the parochial school at the time, and they didn't tell us until the last class of the day. Of course, I wasn't there- for the one time in my life, I exaggerated a slight illness and got sent home early, and didn't hear about what happened until my mother complained about how awful it was that I would do this today (and she could tell I was faking, too)...
I don't think the actual horror of the event ever really set in, though... |

Posted by Nicole Yeah. When you a child, you may not understand such a horrific situation. Today, however, we are now much more affected by the horrific event since we now understand. ____________________ Sunshine Realm Welcome to Aqmlm's, the only board with Al-Aq'mlmistrators! |

I was about 15 at the time. I remember it was a Wednesday; I didn't have school, because of a doctor or dentist appointment. My mom usually has the radio going in the morning while getting ready in her room, and for some reason she didn't have it on. She was almost ready and asked me to turn it on for her. The first words I hear out of that box was "a terrible tragedy in New York this morning."
And then we turned on the TV, about three minutes before the second plane crashed into the other tower. It was at that point we realized we were under attack. We spent the day glued to the TV after that. Pretty sick shit. |

I honestly don't know. I was about four. I didn't care overly much then because I was a child and had my own childish priorities, and the not caring kind of just stuck through my life due to it not affecting me, it being a large percentage of my life ago and me having a problem with empathising with the tragedies of random people. Also I live in the UK which meant it was less explosive (sorry) news at the time ____________________ |

I was in line to cancel a few classes on my classes, so I was in the admin building. I heard some commotion and kinda got the idea that something was up. I headed back to my dorm and turned on the TV. Shortly after the first tower collapsed, the campus was locked down. I spent the afternoon getting in touch with Acmlmers in that area (not too many actually) to see if they were OK.

I was home, I was off from work that day, my Mom woke me up to put the news on and one of the towers were on fire. I saw the other plane hit the other tower and both went down, I was heart broken. ____________________ My Linktree |

I was in school. It was one of my first few weeks of fifth grade. They did as good a job as they could to try to scare the shit out of me about it. |
