Where were you during the 9/11 Attacks? How did you hear about it?

So if you can think back to September 11, 2001... What where you doing? How old where you and how did you hear about it?

Try and be specific.

I was 10 years old, it was 6 days after my birthday, I believe I was in school at the time and saw the news on TV after I got home.

EPIC face? Anyway on 9/11 I remember being twelve years old, I was in school on science class. It was early morning about 8:45 am. It was typical of my science teacher to listen to his radio at that time, so as everything was happening we were hearing it. We also happened to have a tv in class, that's when the teacher forgot all about the class, turned on the tv and we tuned in. This was a time of great confusion as well as fear. Living in Massachusetts next to New York, we thought we were going to be attacked at some point. It was all too terrible...

I live in TX, I was a sophmore and was in English class, when I got to class our teacher already had the tv on and was tuned to the news, she was extrememly worried because she has/had family in NY. We were concerned about this because I live in El Paso, TX and we have one of the most important military bases in the US here, Fort Bliss, we were afraid they'd start attacking the bases in order to crumble our defenses..

i was about 9 yrs old, waking up trying to watch cartoons && all the channels i would turn to had the attack footage. i didnt really know what was going on. heading to school my dad was explaining that it was a terrorist attack && to pray for the lost people. As soon as i walked into class the teacher explained everything && i was shocked something that horrible happened. Now i am not american but was raised here since age 3 && i felt it just like any america would have. R.I.P to all the lost souls
