9/11

well okay... it is the 13th already. but im lazy. anyway..

Six years ago, where were you? wow 6 yrs? The war's been on that long. I can't believe it. Why do people hold grudges this long? I don't blame them, I probably would hold a lifelong hatred from Iraqis and Muslims if I knew someone who died from 9/11. Anyway, I was listening to the radio 2 days ago and they were talking about 9/11, and one of the guys said, you'd always remember where you were when you found out. And I do! I remember exactly how it happened. I was in the Phils, in our house at Tahanan. Just came out from the bathroom, went to my room, turned on the TV and surprisingly it was on CNN (when the hell did I watch the news? Weird! As I read the little scrolling thing it said something like 'a 747 crashed in NY twin towers' sat on my bed with my mouth open. I even saw the second building collapse. yup. lucky me. i thought it was like a replay or something, but nope. scrolling thingy said second airplane crashed. damn. i didn't know what to do. seemed silly to call my mom at the time. I have relatives in the US but not New York. No one I can remember anyway. So, I watched for a few good hours, called my friends, and asked them if they wanted to go to Town. So yeah. I think the Tsunami had more impact on me though... I was slightly more depressed by that.

Where were you during 9/11? who cares.
