This is something I will never forget. Even though I've moved away, it's still fresh in my mind.

It may have been five years, but I haven't- and won't- forget.




I don't know what to say. It hardly seems like five years.

My God! Five years already!?? I moved to Mexico City on Sept 10, 2001. I had bought my ticket months before. I remember waking up and everyone talking about some sort of attacks on the U.S. It wasn't until my parents called to make sure I was there safely that I realized how bad it was. Do you ladies remember where u were when it happened and what you were doing???



The tv was turned on early morning as an alarm.
Voices of a concerned news reporter/sirens/frenzy are heard in the background.
I open my tired eyes to see something surreal. One of the twin towers is in smoke.
I think to myself...is this a reenactment of the unabomber incident with new released clips? I yell to my friend in the bathroom "Yo, check this out?! I think something is wrong!" He takes a glimpse and shuns it as if it were the reenactment.
Then the second plane hits the other tower live in front of our eyes.
Rest in Peace.





I watched an A&E special on it yesterday and cried for a bit. The telling of the story about how people on the top floors of the north tower was so horrific like something out of a movie. I remember I was in french class in highschool when the towers were hit. No one could stop watching the news all day in every single class I had. We all sat there in disbelief with our glazed over toward the tv screen.
Every heroic effort made by firefighters and police is remember as well as the people who didnt have a fighting chance to make it out in time.

...was asleep. Roommate bangs on my bedroom door waking me up. Then girlfriend (now wife) was on phone. "Turn on the TV to CNN!" I tuned in just in time to see the 2nd plane crash. Very, very sad. Went to work that night and some guy got his... to put it nicely... his ass handed to him on a plate. The reason? He was standing at the bar doing shots, and getting hammered. CNN was on the TV behind the bar and they were showing replays of the morning's events. THIS FU**ING A**HOLE was cheering for the terrorists!!!! The most callous thing that I have EVER seen!

I was walking to work when people started flooding away from the towers... Everyone was freaking out. A lady I knew was screaming about her sons being there... One of my coworkers quit on the spot and walked to the scene to assist....

I woke up in the morning, and knew nothing. The Empress, still Honney to me back then was dropping me off at work, and I kept hearing it on the raido, no details no nothing. It was a comdey morning show station in Australia. I initially thought it was a joke. They put it on the big tv at work. It is odd I was there almost a year and 10 days before it happened. We were in the observation deck. Imagine one year and a few days later and I'd not be here. Since I was already in hell, I just marched on, it was the only way for me then.

I was in Spanish class in 10th grade. The day went on silently in a normally loud crazy city high school. Never saw so many teachers cry. Especially my Spanish teacher...who was prego and emotional anyway...but wow. I thought it was fake at first. I couldnt believe it.
Cant believe its been 5 years already.

I was a relay operator for the Deaf; I spoke and typed back and forth so that a Deaf caller on a TTY could talk to a hearing person with just a phone. We were really busy all morning with people calling all over the country freaking out. I was freaking out too. This asshole operator near me kept saying his mother was sending him text messages saying that they also hit the Sears Tower in Chicago, the CNN tower in Atlanta, the Pentagon, and the Golden Gate Bridge. When we heard the Pentagon really had been hit, we believed the other ones and thought it was freaking Armageddon. By noon they sent us all home and I went to my mother's house and watched the news all day. I was terrified.





Isn't it amazing how we remember minute little details from that day that at the time we never really paid attention to, or would pay attention to on any other day.
I had that day off from work. I usually sleep in late on those mornings, but for whatever reason I got up at around 7:30 that morning (central time, 8:30 NY time just 15 minutes before the first plane had hit) and turned on my Playstation. I was playing a video game called Vegas Games 2000. I screwed around on there for about an hour and a half and shut if off at exactly 9:10 (I remember looking at the VCR clock when I did it). This was about the time that Flight 93 crashed. One of the WTC towers was already gone. I was watching CNN when the second one collapsed. I remember hearing Wolf Blitzer's voice.
If there's something that I'll never forget from that day, it was driving around town later that afternoon and staring in awe at the long lines at every gas station I passed because there were wild rumors flying around that gas was going to be $4-5/gallon. I somehow found a lane open at a station near my brother's house and backed into it. I filled up my tank for $1.57.

Guh. I spent most of my day twitching at little flashback memories. Random clips of the day in my mind. Customers were rabid about renting United 93, and I actually got into a rather heated argument about the movie with one customer.

Much love to those who lost their lives on that day. And more love to those who will miss them until they breathe their last breaths.
May the world someday be such an evolved place that such senseless violence be a long forgotten thing of the past.

We will never ever forget!!
I was sleeping. My Mom called me and told me to turn on the news. I was horrified and had that immediate "I want everyone I love to be close to me right now" feeling. My Mom came over and we watched CNN for hours until I had to go to work. I couldn't believe there were customers there. Not many at all, but some. I could not believe that I was there..it just felt so wrong.
