I remember exactly where i was that day. I was in my first period class in the eleventh grade. It was my government class. Around 9am my principal came in and told us to turn the tv on. He came to our class because my teacher is the son of a congressman. We just sat there not knowing what was going on. All we could do was stare at that tv. I remember when they grounded all the flights in the US. I went outside and just stared at the sky looking for a plane and not seeing one. Our tv at the house never changed from CNN for the next week. When i heard about the pentagon i kept thinking i coulda been there because my rotc class had a trip up to DC the week after and we were going to visit the pentagon.
