What were you doing when 9/11 happened?
"I live in New York. It was 2 days before 3rd
grade started. I totally forget where I was, and what building I was in but I
heard people screaming all of a sudden. I looked out the window and said
something like "Mom! Look! A Plane! It crashed into a building!"
Everybody in the building was so astonished and thought that it was some
horrible accident. People were calling 911 and everything. I wasn't scared
because it was "just an accident" the plane must have malfunctioned.
But then the second plane crashed. I didn't know at the time, but the adults
all knew that it was more than just an accident. Everybody was crying and screaming
and yelling; it was total chaos. My mom picked me up and we ran out. The
streets were filthy and very crowded. That is all I can remember remembering.
We went down underground into the subway station and firefighters and police
were leading us to safety. That is all I remember."
RIP: My
favorite cousin. September 11, 2001.
