i was at school, first period
there was an announcement on that something had happened.. but they were not sure
so we brought a tv into the classroom and watched the news...
saw the second tower collapse, it was pretty distrubing
btw the class was computers so everyone was trying to find the news on the internet, but cnn.com, and all the other major news sites were completely clogged up w/ traffic..

A kid mentioned it in my chem class about a plane hitting the tower and we thought he meant a small single engine plane.... I got back to my dorm to watch the second tower collapse

I had just gotten to work, and had no idea why no one was there untill security told me what was going on. I rushed home and turned my TV on, and my jaw droped.

i was in school...with my arms in a bucket of wet plaster...some girls from another class walked in and started talking to some girls who were sitting near the door...and then told the whole class what had happened...at the time there was also a rumor that my city was under attack as well..armed terrorists at a local bank..so that freaked us out even more...though that just turned out to be a crazy lady with a cap gun...
at first i thought it was just some weird rumor or joke...but then my teacher turned on the radio..by then one of the towers was completely gone..
then i went home and watched the constant replays... weird day...

I had just got out of the shower when my brother rang me from Greece, he's in the navy and when he heard "Twin Towers has been hit by two planes" he thought it meant they had been hit by missiles, as a result he thought WWW 3 had started. In retrospect I'm amazed how calm I remained.

Just waking up, and I just heard on NBC before I went out the door that a plane had crashed into the WTC. I thought it was just a small tourist plane or something, then I went to school and everyone was rambling about ''oh, it's a war now, this is awful, end of the world'', and I was too tired to pay attention. I got home around 1 PM, and saw the video of the crashes... that was surreal.

I was installing a computer network into a school. There was no tv or internet connection at that moment due to our installation. I found out from my WAP phone by chance, about 20 minutes after it had happened, and we used my phone all afternoon to get the latest news.

I was in my intro to literature class. About halfway through, a campus police officer came in and asked to speak w/ a girl in the class outside. We didn't see her after that. Somehow my teacher found out that this girl's dad had been in one of the WTC towers that morning (he worked there), and that a commerical aircraft had struck it, and they don't know if he evacuated or not. I guess her dad made it out...injuries from falling debris, but alive. We didn't find that out until a week later.
After class I was in campus center for a while where they had the ABC news feed on the monitors. A terrible day. Everyone was horribly upset and terrified wherever i went.

I was watching the news...I always do at that time (at 3:05 was the second plane and the news begin at 3:00)
seeing it at the same time that it happened.... maybe the saddest day in my life

its weird how so many people from other countries were affected by this...
it usually seems like most people outside the country (and inside..) dont really care too much for the US..which is understandable...
though i remember thinking the day it happened that no matter how much you disagree with the country...something like this is still upsetting..

Large amounts of people dying is always upsetting, but we thought there were 50.000 people dead, turns out there were about 3000 people dead(from various nationalities). Plus everyone was affraid of world war 3/nukes. I'm still not sure how it will end.
