left my dorm on the way to class when the first plane hit. Got to the building and cacs were acting hysterical talkin bout class is cancelled because a airplane hit a building. I was like "what?". Got back to my dorm turned on the tv and they showed that 2nd plane hit so I just pulled up a chair right in front of the tv and sat there that whole day. Like .

Teachers were crying, they put the tv on and everyone was just silent puzzled at what was going on. I lived in New York at the time it happened. It was actually the driven force for why my parents left new york and didn't find it suitable to raise kids there. We were evaluated out of school, I sat that entire day at home worrying about my father who worked behind the building, it was the first time I felt the possibility of death. It didn't click right then what was going on but I knew something was terribly wrong from inside our apartment. He came home at like 10pm even though, we lived 20-30 mins away with a gas mask.

[UpAndComing]

In Brooklyn in 6th grade. In the last period of class, wondering why the teacher looking shook as fukk and she didn't let us know what happened. I guess she wanted to sheild us from it

Then I walked home and my sister waiting by the front door like, "Did you hear the Twin Towers fell down?"

Then the TV didn't work and I couldn't watch Arthur, and was like

[The Intergalactic Koala]

10th grade in accounting class. I remember it like it was yesterday. My accountant teacher found out that a plane hit the towers. He checked on his son since he was in the NYC area. Next thing I know they let us out of school early and the whole city was shut down. No transit systems, nothing. So I walked home and was picked up by my step uncle. We were at the house just looking at the news like wow..... It was like life stood still for the remaining hours of the day.

 

[N.J.stan]

9th grade Spanish class. Our bytch of a teacher left the TV on for a few minutes after the first plane hit, then turned it off and made us do our lessons as usual. Whole rest of the day was surreal, watching the news from class to class, constant announcements over the PA for various students to go to the office to go home, lots of kids and staff crying cause they had family in the area or working in the buildings themselves. Unreal to live through

I remember that I started thinking long and hard about leaving NY after that. Not right after, but it was little things like the subsequent anthrax attacks that made me second guess taking an abandoned newspaper in the subway, or the threats of blowing up the tunnels and bridges.

Was in high school in my 2nd or 3rd (can't remember) period English class. I remember them rolling the TVs in and watching it on the news.

Also remember some people's parents coming to pick them up from school.
