I was in 5th grade, staring at my hot ass teacher who has 27 and had a nice ass. Saw it on tv and didn't really know what was going on.

I was in 7th grade religion class yelling wtfwtfwtfwtfwtfwtfwhatthefuck
I remember that shit, we all got out early that day and I was sitting at home in front of the tv trying to figure out what just happened. so young and naive, but still so young and still so naive. crazy to think I was in 7th grade at the time though. seems so long ago. go 'merica! how many people watched 'loose change' like 3 days after the attack though? |

I was eating my cereal getting ready to go to school (5th grade). I remember walking in to my class, and telling everybody that we were going to war.

I was woken up by my mom yelling, "We are under attack!" I was like "What do you mean?" And all my mom could say was "Planes!" I turned on the TV and was in disbelief. I was in HS at the time, and its crazy to think that it was just this year that we got the guy who was head of the organization that did this.

I was in creative writing class in High School
Shit was unreal. I asked the teacher "soooo wtf happened exactly" and she was freaking out because at that point all anyone knew was that a plane hit the building. I remember watching the news when the second plane hit. It was fucking unreal. My jaw almost hit the ground, cause I mean honestly, who the hell ever expects shit to go from insanely horrifically bad to 910% worse? Still can't believe it happened. Condolences to all those families who lost someone that day.

I was in 9th grade going to second period computer class. Walked into classroom and teacher had it on TV. First plane had hit already. Saw second hit and attack on Pentagon as well as attempt on White House. Saw the towers fall.
I hoped on to an internet forum that I frequented back then (no longer exists) during that hour. I found out on that internet forum that Osama Bin Laden was behind attacks. The news didn't have damn clue to this yet. The next period they forced the teachers to turn off the TV because of the suicides that where being shown. Also, most of the parents came to pick up their kids. By the end of the day school was pretty empty. Surreal day. I was glued to the NPR on the way home, then TV when I got home. Dark day in America.

Sophomore year in High School. I was actually out in the school park playing ball for gym class and we all saw the smoke in the distance. Teacher tells me 'They're probably just burning leaves or something'. Obviously not. Most of the classes went by as normal, except for my history class, we finally found out what happened and one student ran out of the classroom crying hysterically. I didn't even know, I even spent time after school just hanging out with my friends and stuff and went home late.
When I got home, I tried turning on the TV, but all the channels were down (no cable). I thought that was strange, so I went online to see what happened. I literally didn't sleep at all that night. It was definitely something surreal. Never forget. |

I was visiting family in Guadalajara, Mexico. My mom, older brother, little brother, and myself had flown over less than a week before it happened.
My older brother and I were skateboarding near my grandparents place filming ourselves do tricks off a high ledge. Walked back to the house and found everyone glued to the tv. Couldn't believe my eyes. Totally unreal. After that, my dad drove something like 3 days from Los Angeles to Guadalajara to pick us up. I was terrified to fly after that. It took me 9 years to get back on a plane. Even with all of the safety precautions set in place these days(and flying being one of the safest forms of travel), I was still pretty nervous getting on. Been reading/watching a lot of 9/11 stories lately. Just puts things into perspective. One minute you could be enjoying a nice cup of coffee at work, running for your life the next. Wish people would learn to appreciate the simpler things in life. You never know what day will be your last. |

Was my last semester of college. As I parked to walk to a Business Ethics exam the radio mentioned a plane hitting WTC. Took the exam with all of us mentioning the story/rumors. The next 3-4 classes that day were just TV and discussion.
Its always a wierd day, would have been mom's 50th bday as well.

its crazy to hear all of these stories on here. seems like it was just yesterday that it happened. i was in grade 7 i thing and we were all sitting in class. my teacher told us something terrible had happened, she brought in the tv and we just caught the second plane going in. at the time it was surreal but still to this day it gives me chills when watching a video about 9/11. as stated before im from canada also and i know it greatly affected people around my area.

It was my first day of duty post-training serving with the 27th FS at Langley AFB, VA. I was a crew chief on F15Cs at the time - needless to say i received a very quick introduction on how things worked around there. Showed up at 6:30am that morning and was preparing my newly assigned baby (83-0032) for typical training sorties that day when our Expediter drove by yelling that Weapons was on the way with "full stacks" and that we needed to hurry our asses up. Training sorties had been cancelled and we were flying CAPs (Operation Iron Eagle) over the east coast until further notice... It was a day that i will never forget. -asher |

I was in 7th grade, 3rd hour, Social Studies, Ms. Purciful. Bell rang and everyone was in there seats joking and laughing about our teacher not paying any attention that class should have started.
Then she booked it out of class to where we later found out was the library and came back with a T.V. Turned it to channel 5, and said this is what we're doing today, pay attention It was confusing at first, cuz we had to piece together what was going on and where it was ( i didnt really know where/what the twin towers were then ). but we saw the 2nd one live not too much later, nothing to explain about it. Found out later that day another kid in our grades' mom was suppose to flying home from new york to missouri that morning, but overslept and rescheduled. crazy :/

I had a late start school day. So I watched it on the new unfold in the morning. The only thing I remember in school was my Calc test was cancelled cause we spent the entire class watching Fox. I was a senior and I do recall pretty much everyone was silent all day.
