911DA Story: Story

I was at home and was up early a.m. getting ready to go work on a t.v. show(Scrubs). As I was drying my hair and getting ready for work. I was watching t.v. and saw where at that time they thought was a small plane crashed into the wtc. As I was sitting on my bed watchiong, I saw the SECOND plane hit. My skin cringed and I knew something was wrong. It was as if it was a film set that I saw this but knew right away, IT WAS REAL!. I sat there in shock watching not knowing what was to happen next. Then the pentagon. Then I was worried my brother was there because he works as a reporter for NBC and knowing him, he is in the midst of all things. So at that point I got on the phone and tried to call him. I never got thru to him but my mother called me and said he was in Fla. with the Bush group, so I was relieved there. I know alot of people in New York and I prayed that they were allright. I finally made it to work and everyone there was solemn. They cancelled the shoot for the day and I went to the nearest bar along with other people to watch what was going on.I will never forget that day and I pray for those who lost their lives!!!!!
