Subject: [OT]Where were you...

I was going into a class at 9 am when someone mentioned that they had
heard a plane had crashed into a building in NYC, and it was being called
a National Emergency. We didn't know what to think of that, but we went
on with class. After that hour, I had a film class. We went into another
room, and spent a couple hours watching "Tootsie".

It was only after that, when I was walking down the street on the way to
lunch that I ran into a friend. She told me what had happened and I was
just shocked. I went on to the cafeteria, passing by the large TV in the
building's lounge because there were too many people to see. I had a
quick lunch, letting a few other friends tell me more, before heading
back to my room and turning on CNN.

That was when I finally got to see what had happened. It was about 12:30
EST before I actually knew for sure that this had happened, and it was over.
