Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was working as a server at the time and had just worked two weeks straight without a day off. September 11th was my first day off and I was ready to sleep in. I was sleeping heavily when my boyfriend came in to wake me up. He told me that a plane had run into a building. In my sleepiness I envisioned a small sight-seeing plane hitting a small building somewhere unimportant. I told him to leave me alone and I went back to sleep. A few hours later when I woke up I walked downstairs and saw my boyfriend, our roommate and a few of our closest friends huddled around the television. I was like, "what the heck is everyone watching?" When I turned my eyes to see I could not believe it. We all sat there in absolute disbelief. We had so many questions and we were all afraid. We sat glued to the television the entire day. No one dared to move. I think we all cried and we all called our loved ones just to hear their voices. I will never forget how close we all felt to each other that day. The sadness was crippling but the love that rose out of the ashes of that tragedy will be with me forever. Don't ever forget!
