on the morning of september 11,2001, i was on my was to a friend's house. we both attended the same college and we always drove toghter. on this particular day i was a little early so i waited inside her house. we were in her room and we saw the result of the first plan hitting the tower, all we thought was that it was an accident. however as we continued to watch we saw the second tower attached. this was very surprising and we thought that it was a tradedy that was so close to home. on the way to school we keep the radio on to hear what was happing, half way there we found out that a plane had hit in D.C. we waited for our professor in class, who ran in and instructed us to go striaght home and be with our loved ones. i became very panacied not knowing what would happen next. i had a daughter in day-care and one at school. my father worked near the air-port and was stuck there. i also had a younger brother at school also. i rushed to the schools to get the kids who were very up-set and were full of questions. my day-care provider informed me that my youngest child was safe and to come later after things had been clamed down. i remeber going back to my friends house and being glued to the t.v. we were so scared because her brother is in the service and we couldn't reach him. i also remeber being upset because my cell phone wouldn't work and i couldn't get in touch with my relatives some that live in D.C. this had to be one of the most scariest days of my life and i will never forget it. i will always say a prayer for those fallen heroes and thier families.i can only imagine what they were going threw on that tradic day.
