I am a college student and my roomate and I were sleeping and we heard a knock on our door, the facilities department had come in to fix our shower, and he said, we have been bombed, someone flew a plane into the Empire state building, half asleep, my roomate and I ignored it and got up 30 minutes later....turned the tv on and sure enough, to our shocking suprise saw smoke, and then the 2nd plane hit the other tower. We couldn't believe what we were seeing, we thought we were still dreaming or something, the only thing I rememeber repeating over and over again, was "oh my gosh, this is horrible" I couldn't believe that it could happen in AMERICA! All the innocent people that lost their lives in some terrorist's, hateful act. I still pray for all the families who lost loved ones in the towers and pentagon. I have so much sympathy for all the family and friends of firemen and policemen that were killed or injured in trying to help others, you are "Gods Angels". My dad is a fireman, and I can't imagine that happening to him. All of you guys and gals are in my prayers. May God be with you all in this time of sorrow and need, HE will bless you with whatever you ask HIM for. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!
