September 11th

- Nine years ago today, I woke up early, went to the gym, then off to the voting booth.
- I voted for Mark Green for Mayor of NYC, then went home to shower and get to work.
- I was running late and called my boss as I was running down the stairs of my apartment building to let him know.
- He was late too...in Brooklyn dropping off his daughter for her first day of school.
- When I came outside the weather was beautiful.
- But I couldn't hear my boss anymore as a loud roar of a plane was going over my head.
- If I turned left, the World Trade Center was right there.
- But I told my boss I couldn't hear him cuz of the plane and would see him at work.
- I turned right toward the subway.
- My back was now to the towers.
- A woman facing me and the towers screamed.
- I turned around to see a large ball of fire.
- As the fire dissipated, a huge hole.
- The subway entrances began to bleed hundreds of people.
- The subway was closed.
- I wasn't going to work that day.
- I called my boss to tell him.
- I called work to tell them to turn on the TV.
- I called friends to tell them to turn on the TV.
- I called my mom and we just talked.
- Until we saw another plane we thought was heading south
- Until it veered East, then north.
- Another big ball of flames.
- My cell phone went silent cutting off my mom.
- We knew we were being attacked.
- I ran home.
- From the roof of my building I saw people jumping.
- I heard about the Pentagon.
- I saw two enormous buildings fall
- I was in a fog.
- I went home and cried.
- Would the world end?
- Would I die?
- I didn't die.....I'm here to tell the story......If you're not sick of it already, you will be in 50 years :)

TO ALL THOSE WHO DIED THAT DAY I REMEMBER YOU
TO ALL THOSE WHO USED THAT DAY FOR POLITICAL GAIN,
I FEEL SORRY FOR YOU.
