september 11

Good morning.

First off I'd like to say Happy Birthday to Jen and Bethany and all the other's that have a birthday today.

Well today marks 5 years since the attacks. I can't believe it's already been half a decade, it feels like it happened maybe a year ago. I can still remember that day in 2001.

I woke up for school and for some reason I turned on the TV and I saw the news saying that a plane flew into the trade center. I didn't think of it much and only thought of the people in plane, didn't even register that if a plane flies into a building that the people in the building are probably hurt as well.

It wasn't until I got to school that I found out how serious things were and it gave me chills that the planes left from Boston, the same city that my bro just moved to. And my parents were in Germany so I was left alone trying to make sense of what happened.

When I got home from school I called my aunt and uncle's place since that was where my bro was staying and left a message "hey it's sab, is my bro still at your place, i want to talk to him" My bro called me back a while later, I think he was freaked out as well.

The TV in my house was turned on and it didn't get turned off for like 3 days... I kept on torchering myself with those horrible images thinking that maybe if i see the images over and over again, I'd finally understand what the hell happened, but no luck there, I just didn't understand what the hell happened.

To this day I still have problems looking at images of 9/11. I saw the Oliver Stone movie opening weekend in August and I finally saw images of people jumping from the towers. Until then I only heard of it, never saw images though.

anyways that is all,

bin bald wieder zu hause
