What were you doing?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
It will never ever go away and it still makes me mad now I work up the block from the site and I'm here right now as I write this and its always scary and not a day goes by where I dont watch every plane go by to see how high is it or where is it going its very nerve wrecking
 
i was in second or third grade and was at a neibors in the basement


my uncle would have been in it if him and his coworkers did not get there work done but they got it done the night before!
 
I was in grade 11 (or was it 12?) fine arts class. The moment it happened I was smoking right before class. I came in and people asked if I'd heard, and I didn't know what they were talking about... we watched it on the news and my teacher was so paranoid, even though we were in a different country.

I didn't believe it at first... I remember it was surreal watching it unfold. The footage of the people jumping out was just terrifying, all I could think of was what they were thinking/feeling right there. Surreal is probably the only word to describe that day.
 
I had just woke up from a big time bender the night before - still so drunk that I thought I was watching a B rated movie for a while. Turned the TV on right as the second plane hit.

Things didn't sink in until I found out a few people I knew had died. One of the reasons I joined the military.
 
was working and watched it Live..Never ever forget that feeling I FELT, SO HELPLESS!!! Was so happy when missiles started hitting there targets in Afghanistan .............GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!
 
I had just started 1st grade. I was far less annoyi...
NM.
We had just stated the year and we only had 1/2 hr days. I heard sirens blairing all morning long. Not so strange, the school is on a 2 way street.Very busy. EVERYONE started going home early. Then me. My Mom and Sister were downstairs. They told me that they had been at a cafe and a random woman appeared and told them. Then she ran off.

i can only amagine... being that close to this nightmare will take along time to deal with.. i honestly am lost for words... because there is no way to make it better..
 
I was living about 25miles out side of Boston at that point...the planes flew right over us......we(my brother sister and I ) were out side playing before we started school--I was 13 at the time so that put them at 12 and 10-and we were home schooled and it was just before breakfast--I remember we saw these planes fly over-like they always did...and then there was pretty much no more noise..we couldn't hear the construction crew that was ALWAYS noisy that time of morning...and then our mom called us in for breakfast...and I told her that I thought that something had happened-as in like locally-and so we turned on the tv..which we NEVER did before our school work was over....and then we saw the 2nd town fall live!! my sister had never been sooo scarred in her life....and all my brother and I wanted to do was watch the tv and see what had really happened...and I remember when my mom was finally able to get a hold of my dad he didnt have any idea what had happened.......and his boss sent everyone home 10min latter...because everyone other then us was from the East coast and wanted to go home to their wives and children!!
 
I had been up getting ready for work. I was 19 years old. My boyfriend called me to tell me to turn on the tv. From that point on i was wishing i was watching an action movie.
I felt sick cause i was watching the buildings collapse and knew i was watching hundreds of people dying all at once.
