re: Where were you when 9/11/01 happened?

8th grade. Walked into my 2nd period history class early to talk about the Monday night football game and the teacher had the tv on. Said there was a plane to hit one of the towers. Maybe 45 seconds later the coverage showed the 2nd plane hitting. We looked at each other in shock and I asked him if that really happened. He just nodded his head.

Rest of the class was coming into the room and started to realize what was going on. School was over that day. Everyone just stayed in whatever classroom they were in and watched the news.
