Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was in a class to prepare me to take the NJ state test to be licenced as a Property/Casualty Producer. We were testing, and after you were done you could leave the room and go to the front office where there was a television. Suddenly someone came into the class and announced the WTC had been attacked. We all ran to the tv room. I couldn't belive it, it just couldn't be true, this sort of thing happens in other countries, not here in the United States. I immediately thought of family that lives in DC and NY. We went out side and I vividly remember that the day was absolutely beautiful, a perfect sunny September day. It just didn't seem real. Eveyone was on their cell phones try to call home. I finally got through and learned all my loved ones were ok. Our teacher would not let us leave, he announced that we have to stick to the state schedule. He futher stated he would not let any terrorist stop us from getting an education. At first I though that was cold and unfeeling of him, but upon reflection, I realized that was his way of keeping things as normal as possible for us. I can appreciate what he did. In some way, that made me feel that things eventually would be ok. Thank you Big C.
