Where were you when the World stopped turning?
I was in my 6th Grade math class, watching a special on TV, when they broke in. Myself, as well as my classmates and teacher, stood there. Stunned.
I literally could not move for at least 2 hours. It's one thing to hear about the first plane hitting the towers, but to actually watch the second, live, is something I will carry with me to my grave.
Then the Pentagon, and Shanksville, PA.
Then the towers fell, as we watched people jumping from the floors above the impact location.
That's when it got really real.
10 years later, it stings a little less, but one flashback to that day brings back chills and things I'd rather not remember.
That's what I was doing, what were you doing on that fateful day?
