Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: It was in the mid morning that I woke up on that day, and just on the other side of the room, my roommate had woken up as well. He made it into the bathroom first, so I decided to watch cartoons since I had about an hour to kill. I switched off the cartoon at a commercial, and turned to channel 5 (I think). That is when I saw the Pentagon on fire. At first I thought somehow a fire broke out, but then the news flash cam across the screen, which said, ?Plane crashed into side of Pentagon.? Wow. What the hell?! Whoa. A plane? Did what? Man this is heavy, is what I think as I sit upright and try to listen to the news anchors as they relay the story as of what has happened. I think to myself ?how could this have happened.? I start to call my roomie, but then the screen flashes what looks like the World Trade Centers in NY. Then I saw one of the buildings with smoke and fire coming out of it. Then another news flash sprung out, ?World Trade Center Attack: Plane crashes into WTC #1.? Holy Mother of God!! Mike!!!!!!! (Screaming) By now the news networks are flashing America at War, and terrorists attack NY and Washington. As mike comes out of the bathroom he is taken back by the shock and he says his own set off feelings. By this time my other roommates have come out and all four of us are watching. The phone rings? my girlfriend wants me to come over because she has just woken up. Then rest of my day is spending watching a second plane crash into the other WTC building and then after that seeing both building fall. I try to call my parents on vacation and then also trying to reach my aunt who works at the Pentagon. Everything is fine at least with my family, now to start the process of being prepared for more attacks.
