Remember how everything was after that happened? It was perfect harmony for about two weeks then it was back to regular scheduled programming

9/11 was really was a dark day for the country. I was 13 and a freshman. The principal came on the loud speaker to inform us of the attack. My teacher turned on the tv right after. A few mins later, the next plane crashed into the other building. I really couldn't believe what I was seeing. The whole thing felt surreal. We had early dismissal in around 12PM. There was a horrible stench in the air that day. Something along the lines of burning metal mixed with gas. I don't live in NY, but from a distance, I was smelling the aftermath. It was pretty eerie.

Sometimes i still can't believe those buildings came down like that. That visual is so surreal. Rip to the victims. Ain't no way to go, whether on the planes, in the buildings or the after effects.

same as y'all i was in school and the principal was delivering news to the teachers and pretty much everything stopped, we were allowed to leave early, I was in CT at the time so a lot of my classmates had family in NYC etc. so school was pretty much dismissed early, i went home and watched CNN for the rest of the night, I couldn't believe it and it's still surreal that it happened.
can't believe it was 17 years ago now. America never really recovered, there's so many things that are different now, we've become much more of a police state. I think that's what the government wanted too.

No disrespect to the dead, but I'm tired of this. I saw the second plane hit the tower in person my school was right in view of WTC. Yeah people died but we endure. NYC rebuilt (As we often do) And the country went to war and moved on. Most people I know forget about the memorial unless they see it on the news. White ppl need to get over this already.

I was 17 years old and a senior in high school. I was getting ready for school and like I usually did in the morning I turned on the Today show and saw they were talking about the first plane hitting the towers. I was half paying attention and figured it was a accident or whatever. I drove to school bumping Kiss The Game Goodbye so I still didn't know what was going on until I got to school.
When I got there everyone was like
I was like "why everyone sad?!"
My boy was like terrorist attacked the World Trade Center. I was like it was an accident and ain't no damn terrorists attacked. Our principal came on the intercom and told everyone what was going on. The rest of the school day was a blur.
