Where were you 8 years ago?
This is one of those days that most of us from the US will know forever where we are at when we heard what was going on.
For me, I was in college up early that morning cramming for a test I had that afternoon. I saw the news on AOL.com then turned on my TV. For some reason, I thought it would be a good idea to grab my video camera and my (ex) girlfriend and head towards the city.
Honestly, was completely shocking and changed my whole perspective about tragedies like this. I don't think I would of taken to heart what really happened as much as I do if I was not there. I obviously wasn't able to get into the city, but I was able to get on the highway across the river and get some shots with my camcorder.
Anyway, its kind of interesting to hear what other people say... some say they were in an airport, others didn't hear about it until they got home from work that day, etc.
