Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: It started off as a beatiful sunny day here in NY City. My family had said their ritual "See you laters" and we all went off to greet the day. I, a student at Leon M.Goldstein HS had just started my sophmore year and was still adjusting to my schedule, my new teachers and friends. I clearly remember that I had just walked into my English classroom highly excited to talk about our summer reading, A Seperate Peace when our principal, Mr Zaza, who had just strated his first year in our high school walked into our tiny classroom of about 20 kids. I thought he was going to introduce himself, or maybe welcome us back and encourage to do our best and start the year off right, but what he had to say changed my life as I knew it. "Ladies and gentlemen, I have a piece of rather sad news to tell you, this morning two planes had crashed into the world trade center and as of now, it is believed to be a terrorist attack...." I paused, my heart stopped and all I could think about was, "Wait a minute, my mother works there, OMG." I could see the image of a plane crashing into the ground and knocking her over with full force in my head. What do I do? Of course the news had spread and by ten o'clock most kids were either on their way home, or frantically trying to contact their parents. A group had gatherd in my math room and we all listend to the radio, somehow everything that was being said didnt sound as if it was happening just a few miles away, WW3? 10,000 casulaties? No, this is a place I had just been to three days ago, a place I often go to to admire the fountain or enjouy a free concert at, anything but the center of complete and utter chaos...I rushed home but my usual 45 minute route had chnaged into a three hour nightmare. People crowded the buses, the trains werent running anf no one had any idea of what was going on, Yet we could all the the smoke to the left of the city, we all smelled it, and we all knew someone, anyone, that was in the midst of all that terror. I was too worried to cry and full of hope that she missed her train, or maybe stayed home, I had called everysingle relative that I knew, maybe she went to them if she couldnt get home, but no one answered, most of all, my mothers number was no longer in existence. Hour after hour I signed off and on line, I switched the channels all of which produced images of people covered in dust, bleeding crying, confused,terrefied. What couldve gone wrong? What happend they all thought to themselves as they stares into my screen. I wish I could answer them but I was a clueless. The name Bin Laden was never entioned to me before, nor was this Al Quada, why would they want to kill my mother? Why would they want to hurt us? What had I, or anyone affected by this tragedy ever done to them? That was of no matter because it was 6 o'clock and my aunt had come home. She heard from my mom she said. She traumtized but fine. Fine, and alive. I was relived but not fully, I wanted her here, at home and needless to say, she came home around 8, covered in dust and shaken,I embraced her with all my might. "Whats going on? What happened?" She asked. "I saw people jumping out of the building, everything shook..." Her story went on and once we showed her what was happening in the city, she broke down and cried, we all did. The days that followed didnt matter. I stayed glued to the TV and my mother was now unemployed, yet we all had hope, that we'd see a better day but although the number of casualties was lowered dramatically, and the blame stopped shifting from one group to the next, it broke my heart to learn that there were but a few survivors, yet I was overjoyed that one of them was my mom.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: The morning of September 11th, I was attending a 9:30 class at Northern Virginia Community College. When the class started, one of my classmates walked in and said that a plane had hit the World Trade Center. By the end of the class, another student walked in to inform us that a plane had hit the Pentagon in Arlington. As I walked back to my car in tears, the world was still and eerily quiet -- it was a beautiful day, the air was cool, and the sky cloudless and blue. I didn't know what to do, or what to think. There were so many questions that couldn't be answered. The world was a blur of people, there were looks of confusion and anger, and so many tears. There were people in their cars with their radios turned up trying to make some sense of the news. I couldn't. I pinched my arm to see if I were dreaming. My aunt called me when I got home, wanting to know if my family was all right. "Why is there so much evil in the world?" she asked me, sobbing. "How can there be so much hate?" When my boyfriend came over, we watched the TV, disbelieving. All I could ask him through my tears was, "God, what is going on?" "I don't know", he said softly as the images of the World Trade Center flashed on the screen, "Baby, I don't know".

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I remember waking up that morning and turning on my computer just like I did every day. As I started to scan the news, the main headline read "America under attack". I sort of blew it off figuring that somebody was always attacking us in the media. After checking my e-mail, I (still ignorant of unfolding events), I turned on my TV just in time to see the first tower collapse. I believe my first words were "this is just amazing". Then, I got mad. It didn't scare me, it just made me mad. To think that those people had the unmidigated gaul to come over and attack MY COUNTRY. It still makes me mad, but I have to say I am more and more proud of this country and the people of it. GOD BLESS AMERICA!

We thought it was an inexperienced pilot who got confused. We did not know it was a commercial airline. Then we heard of the second plane going into the other tower, then the Pentagon...I was never so scare in all my life. I'm 26, I've never known of anything happening like this, especially in the United States. I had only been at my job for about a week and a half, I wanted to go home and be with my husband...I didn't care if I lost my job. I felt like the whole world was coming to an end. I felt so much sorrow for all that perished, all the survivors and all the families. All the children who lost their parents, all the firefighters and police officers who lost their brothers...what could we do to help? I work for a hospital in the business office...I had nothing to offer the people in NYC or Washington DC...so I did what I could...I began to pray.....

My classmates and I were sitting in the computer lab working and the principal came on the intercom and made an annoucment. I didn't have a clue about what was going on. Then the computer lab teacher turned on the radio and the news reports were talking about the bombing. I was kind of scared because I thought we were going to be next. When I got home the news on every channel that I turned to. I didn't really understand what was happening then, but now I realize that the same thing could have happened to me and the people around me. I still worry about what could happen to us. It was a very sad day for many people across the world. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was a senior in highschool, and i was sitting in human pyschology so unsuspecting that the world as we knew it would never be the same. One of my friends came into school late and had checked in at the office and saw all the turmoil unfolding on television. He came into our classroom and blaintly announced two planes have hit the trade towers and the pentagon is on fire. All of us thought he was joking, since there was nothing nervous or suprised about his tone. Immediately we wanted to turn on the news and see it for ourselves but our teacher being in shock told us no we just have to wait and see it later. Our lives would be changed forever and we couldnt watch television. I remember feeling so helpless so nervous of what this meant. But I knew this country was strong and these colors dont run. I remember how proud I felt about this nation when we all came together as one. I think it shows what it truly means to be american. Hero's came about in the strangest ways that day and we should all be proud. I hope that this helps america, more then it has hurt us. We will always remember the events of that day and who came through for us. Thankyou to the firefighters, police, and silent heros among us. In the words of Todd Beamer "Lets Roll".

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: My story is this:I am a New Yorker I've lived in Reading, PA for 32 years, BUT I AM A NEW YORKER. I do not live in the five Boroughs on on the Island or Upstate, I may live hundreds or thousands of miles away, Or I may just live over the GW bridge, BUT I AM A NEW YORKER.Whatever took me out of New York, Business, Family or hating the cold did not take the New York out of me. My accent may have faded and my pace may have slowed, BUT I AM A NEW YORKER. I was raised on Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade and Rockefeller Plaza, The Yankees or the Mets or the Giants or the Dodgers, Rockaway Beach, Coney Island, Jones Beach, Rye Beach or one of the other beacheson the Sound. I know that THE END means Montauk. Because I AM A NEW YORKER. When I go on vacation, I never look up, Skyscrapers are something that I take for granted. The Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty are part of me. Taxis and subways and "get outta heah" don't rattle me, because I AM A NEW YORKER. I was raised on cultural diversity BEFORE it was politically correct. I eat Greek food and Italian food, Jewish food and German food Middle Eastern food and Chinese food. Because they are ALL American food to me. I don't get mad when people speak in other languages in my presence, because my Grandparents came to this country via Ellis Island, and they chose to stay. THEY were New Yorkers. I AM A NEW YORKER. People who have never been to New York may misunderstand what I am trying to say. My roots are in New York. My Grandfather was a New York City Firefighter. He saw the Fire Department thriugh its' evolution from horses to motorized equipment. I witnessed its distruction on September 11,2001. I AM A NEW YORKER. My Firefighters died trying to save New Yorkers and non-New Yorkers, They died trying to save Americans and non-Americans. This is what they do. Because they were New Yorkers. I feel the pain of my fellow New Yorkers, and mournn the loss of my beautiful city. I feel and dread that New York will never be the same, but then I remember, I am a NEW YORKER. And New Yorkers have: Strength, Tenacity and courage way above the norm. Compassion and caring for our fellow citizens, Love and Pride in our City, State and our Country. Intelligence, experience, and education par excellance. Ability, dedication and energy above and beyond.Faith,no matter what religion we practice.Terrorists hit America in its' heart, but Americas' heart is still beating strong.Demolishied thr steel in our buildings, but couldn't touch the steel in our souls. Hit us in the pocketbook;but we'll parlay what we have left into a fortune. Ended innocent lives leaving widows and orphans, but we'll take care of them, because they are NEW YORKERS. Wherever we live, whatever we do, whoever we are, there are New Yorkers in every city and every state in this nation. We will not abandon our city We will not abandon our Brothers and Sisters, we will not abandon the beauty, creativity and diversity that New York represents, because We are New Yorkers, and we are proud to be New Yorkers. "REMEMBER THE WTC" In loving memory of my Grandfather, the 343 firefighters that perished on September 11, 2001 and those befor them who made the Supreme Sacrifice.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I have read so many accounts of what people were doing on September 11, 2001. Although I was no where near, nor have I ever been to New York, this event is one that will forever leave its footprints in my mind. I was born and raised in California and I have always wanted to visit NY but at the same time I was also ignorant about NY as well. I honestly thought the WTC was just one building, I didn't know about the Twin Towers. On 9/11/01 I woke up and as usual began to get ready for work, I turned on the TV to see a tall building with a gaping hole smoke pouring out. I then heard that a plane had hit the tower. I went and told my boyfriend who was in the shower that the WTC had been hit by a plane and it looked like a movie. There used to be a business building off of the 405 that had a large banner covering its side to be made to look like something had gone through it, it was controversial because it caused a slow down in traffic so it was removed. This is what the WTC reminded me of. I continued to get in the shower and my boyfriend then told me that another plane had gone into the other tower, he saw it live. In the time it took me to get ready, one tower collapsed, by the time I left for work, the second tower had collapsed, I thought it was just a replay of the first collapse. I decided not to take my usual route to work because I didn't want to go through downtown L.A., I didn't know if we were the next target. As I drove to work, I constantly looked for anything suspicious, I heard about the missing planes, the hijacked planes and the plane crashing into the Pentagon. I just didn't know what to expect next. When I finally got to work everyone was talking and watching TV. I worked for a large entertainment corporation so the studio was on alert for any potential attacks and all tall high risk buildings were being evacuated. I called my mom at work in Downtown L.A. and she had been evacuated due to a bomb threat. My father is a police officer so I was also worried about his safety. I called my friend from my old job, she and her husband are from NY and her mom lives in Brooklyn, I wanted to make sure her mom was ok. Interestingly, she knew nothing of what had happend and I had to explain everything to her. Luckily she did get in touch with her mom and she was fine. In time we had been told we could go home early, I didn't see the need so I stayed at work, I would rather have been anywhere but L.A. at the time. That night and for the next few nights, we watched constant TV coverage hoping for survivors but seeing none. Being so far removed, I don't know if I had really taken in the impact of this event. As time passes I constantly watch stories, read personal accounts and learn the history of this event and the impact it has made in the world as we know it. Titanic has always been one of my interests, reading, watching documentaries. I think its the humanity involved that always drew me to it. I feel the same about 9/11. To hear and read people's accounts of that day, it's a constant reminder that each person that lost their life was a human being who lived and loved. I think its very important to remember that. When you hear and read about people that woke up late that day, decided to get out as soon as the first plane hit because they were there in 93', that is all the humanity of this event. I think of the people, not only in the buildings, but the ones watching from afar, the ones whose city as they knew it was destroyed and how that would affect their lives from that day on, for the firefighters and police officers who courageously did their jobs not knowing the end was near. The human toll is great and I think in this way I preserve memory of this incident. I was not alive when JFK was assasinated, I was in elementary school when the Challenger exploded but I do remember where I was when the WTC was attacked. My heart and thoughts go out to all of the families affected by this tragedy, to all of the families of NYPD and NYFD. I have such admiration for the strength of New York residents and our nation during this whole experience. We aren't the greatest nation for nothing.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I arrived home at about 7:00am. Working nights was stressful and watching the news was my way of cooling down. Before trying to sleep I decided to get on the computer and surf the web. One of my applications generated a link 'plane crashes into world trade center'. I checked cnn.com and foxnews.com and found nothing. So I decided to sit down in the living room and watch the news. Smoke was going into the air and the 2nd plance had not crashed yet. Bodies fell from the wound in the building. As the reporter reviewed known facts there was another explosion. The 2nd tower was struck. The tv kept replaying the footage and slowly the news lady found out what happened. My wife called. She is a middle school teacher. I told her that no matter what happens I love her. I watched all day. My boss said to report to work as normal. There were armed guards in front of the national guard building on the way to work. It was surprising that the roads were open. My hope was that someone would instruct me to go back home and stay off the streets. In hindsight it was wrong of me to leave her alone on such a scary night. No one called into the phone center except maybe one or two people. My lesson from this experience is: Never work a night shift job. Never leave my wife alone at night. Never work a weekend shift. September 11, 2001 helps me to reconsider my priorities. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

I was walking back to my room when i saw what my dad was watching on the TV. On CNN i saw a tower with a s***load of smoke coming out of it. i thought maybe a room high-up may have had a fire or something, but then it replayed footage of a plane flying through and explained what had happened. I watched this for a while before i (like everyone else) saw a second plane hit the other tower. The next day it was all the talk of my school (as i'm sure it was the talk in every school and workplace all over the world) and i watched the news channels for days after. As if the terrorist situation wasn't bad enough anyway, on October 12, 2002, Bali in Indonesia was struck by bombers and i actually had distant ties with one of the victims.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I can/could see the towers from the offices where I work. Among the many reactions from the horror of watching unable to prevent harm to running downtown to help......the following hit me after the 1st tower collapsed: When I was about 8 my uncle was part of the plumbling contractors working on the construction of the World Trade Towers. One tower was built and the 2nd was about 50 stories. I was taken to the site to see these incredible buildings. I remember standing atop the incompleted building (job sites have certainly changed) staring at the whole world and being amazed looking endlessly up to see the top of the completed building. When I returned to my office after the evacuation of downtown and stared across to the site of just one tower standing....all I could think of was the loss, loss of people, loss of the dream, loss of the wonder, and innocence of a childhood memory Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: The first thing I remember I remember about September 11, 2001 was being so angry because my phone was ringing off the hook while I was trying to catch up on some well-needed sleep. My anger soon turned to heartache for those that had real disturbances to think about. I turned on the television just before the second tower collapsed. I was crying, shivering, and shaking my head in total disbelief. I called my mom after I pulled myself out of my temporary comotosed state to make sure that our New York relatives were not in harms way. Assured that they were, I tried to make the day as normal as possible for my daughter, who was almost three then. She wouldn't understand any of this. We went out and bought a newspaper though so when the time comes I can answer as many of her questions as possible. Looking back, I think what got me through that day, and the days following, was seeing our country unite even stronger than before and knowing that they may take some lives and ruin some buildings, but what we as Americans have can never be taken from us and that's freedom. Today marks the one year anniversary of this tragic event, and my daughter came home from preschool and recited the Pledge of Alligence for the first time unaided. Just more proof, you can't stop us.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: On the day of September 11th, 2001, I was in the middle of a two-week long vacation with my boyfriend in Europe. We had just gotten to our hotel in Rome when the receptionist asked if there were any Americans in the lobby. There were several of us in the group, including three from New York. We were told that a plane had just crashed into the World Trade Center in New York City. We all continued to watch closely as the scene unfolded, but unfortunately, the news channel was being dubbed over in Italian, and we weren't able to completely understand what had happened. We could only watch in horror as another plane struck the side of the World Trade Center. My boyfriend and I called home to our families to find out if everyone was okay, and to see if we could find out what was happening to our country. We were terrified, being thousands of miles away in a foreign country. We were very anxious to get home to the United States after 9/11, and we are both thankful we were able to return to our families and friends.

Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: My father is still alive. Until yesterday, his office was located on the north side of the 78th floor of One World Trade Center, the first tower to be hit. Had it been located any higher, he would be dead. I phoned him within the first minute of my seeing the news break on CNN. It was fortuitous that I had decided to switch the channel to watch the news. I had become disinterested in the episode of a M.A.S.H. rerun that I was watching, for I had already seen it a dozen times or so. My father had no idea what had happened. He and his co-workers were not terribly alarmed before I called. They knew something had happened, for they felt the building shake a bit. At first, I figured the building had been hit by one of the many small private planes that frequently fly up and down the Hudson River, usually at altitudes substantially lower than the top of the building. My father often remarked at how strange it was to be able to watch these planes fly below eye level. I wasn't particularly alarmed either, especially in light of how a similar event occurred at the 79th floor of the Empire State Building years ago with very little sequelae. No sooner had I hung up the phone, when one of the commentators reported that it might have been a Boeing 737. I immediately called him back. By that time, he and his co-workers had decided to leave the building. I actually delayed their departure by thirty seconds or so because my father had to return to his office to answer the phone. I went back to watching CNN. As I was watching, the silhouette of an airplane caught my eye coming into view from the right. I remember thinking that it was just someone in another one of those small planes flying by, probably there to gawk at the damaged building and the fire that was raging between the 80th and 85th floors. Within seconds, a huge explosion occurred on the left side of the screen. It was Two World Trade Center, the South Tower. I hadn't made the connection, but I was worried that my father might just be reaching the floor opposite this fireball. Still, I was not terribly worried. The World Trade Center was invincible. February 26, 1993 proved it. Then, CNN said something about two planes being involved. Why should I worry? It was probably just some other fool in a Cessna. I didn't know what to be more afraid of - the burning of the building or my father having to climb down 78 flights of stairs. It had been only three weeks since he underwent cardiac surgery to place a stent in a previously grafted bypass. Somewhere in my mind, I hoped that he would die quickly, and prayed that he shouldn't be burned alive. I figured it might be too much to hope that the elevators would still be working. For some reason, though, I began to think and act as if everything would be alright, and that my father would call and come home that evening - just like always. This was not some sort of justified optimism, though. I don't think my mind would permit any other thoughts. He had just stepped out the door, exiting the lobby, when he was literally blown back through the door by what must have been a hurricane-force wind. The South Tower had just at that moment collapsed. Lethal debris blew by him harmlessly, as he watched from the other side of the glass. Had he arrived at the door thirty seconds earlier - the thirty seconds I had delayed him with my second phone call - he would be dead. By this time, I was already with my mother at my parents' house. It was difficult to know what to think, how to think, what to feel. I guess I am by nature a positive person. I think this is somehow different from being optimistic. I began to develop a timeline in my mind, looking at my wrist-watch every few minutes as I monitored the events unfolding on the television. I knew the building. I had been in it or under it almost every day for several years. I had walked through the maze of unfinished corridors, ever-changing and partitioned by walls of hastily-erected green-painted plywood, as year by year they constructed the underground shopping mall and beautified the new subway stations. I approached the whole thing with a sort of logic based upon my knowledge of the building and its surroundings. As each minute passed, I became more and more optimistic that my father would make it. I prayed that he would think to leave the area rather than remain near the building to watch what was going on a thousand feet over his head. There reached a point in time when I predicted he would just be reaching the bottom of the building and on his way out. He was safe, as long as he would retreat to a location sufficiently far from the building to avoid the falling debris. I had in my mind an image of him standing across the street in the park on Liberty Street, or perhaps on Church Street near the coffee shop on the corner. This was far too close. However, I couldn't imagine that he would do anything different than what New Yorkers always do - watch. Then something monstrous happened. A cloud of orange-brown smoke filled the air with explosive force. A panoramic view of downtown Manhattan showed it to be almost entirely lost in a cloud of what looked like dirt. I couldn't figure out what had happened. I couldn't believe that any kind of bomb could produce such an event. How can this be? I had to assume that it was indeed a bomb, because no other idea came to mind. What I couldn't figure out, though, was the color of the smoke. I couldn't account for it. There were no buildings in the area built of red bricks - at least, not for many years. I told my mother that I was now very much more worried about this new explosion than the events occurring above in the towers. If my father was indeed in the park or near the coffee shop, he would surely be dead. Thirty seconds. As the cloud began to dissipate, it became horrifically evident that the South Tower was gone. It had imploded and collapsed to the ground. Now, I hoped that I underestimated the time that it takes to climb down 78 flights of stairs. Logically, I knew that if everything had gone just right, he could possibly still be alive. Logically, it WAS possible. I explained to my mother how things might have happened, and that Dad was still OK because he was probably still in the North Tower when the South Tower collapsed. To have hope, and to relieve us of the hysteria that had been building up to a crescendo, we were counting on my father still being in the North Tower. We enjoyed several minutes of reprise. I remember my lungs filling completely with air as I sighed with relief. Then, right before our eyes, we watched in disbelief as the second tower, an icon of the indestructible and a mammoth of invincibility, collapsed like a house of cards into nothingness. In our minds and hearts, so went my father. My mother began to cry. I hugged her in solace with the recognition of defeat and irreconcilable loss. Still, I hoped that somehow my father would emerge from this catastrophe unscathed. He always seems to land on his feet and beat the odds. We expect him to. He did. He called from a hotel located 5 blocks uptown. At the time, my mother was in the kitchen while I remained in the den, continuing to watch the television. People were calling the house every few minutes - friends, family, co-workers. Suddenly, my mother began screaming hysterically. Without a doubt, it sounded as if she had just received confirmation that her husband - her lifemate - was dead and gone forever. But I knew better. Logic dictated to me that it was my father on the phone, for a confirmation of death so soon under the circumstances of tumult and disorganization surrounding the events was unlikely. I smiled with relief and my eyes filled with tears of joy, even before my mother stopped screaming and gave hint that it was indeed my father on the phone. It couldn't have been more than five minutes that passed before I fell into a chair, completely exhausted and limp, as the adrenaline quickly disappeared from my blood stream. Thank God that today, my family and I are still living the lives that are familiar to us. I guess I just wanted to relate what it was like to be so close to such a disaster. We are so lucky. So, so lucky. My heart aches for all of you who were not as lucky as we were. I don't know what else I can say, except I'm sorry. I can grieve with you, because for a short while, I did.
