I remember Sept 11; I was online at a goldfish-keeper message board I always went to, and someone had posted a message about what was happening. As I read it, my boyfriend called me on the phone from work (truck driving) to tell me he heard from the radio that a plane had hit into the trade center. I thought it might have been accidental, like a small aircraft, but when I turned on the TV news I found out what was happening, and I called my mom at work and then called my best friend to talk about it.
I remember when the Challenger blew up; I was only 7 years old, but I remember it well, watching it all on TV with my mom and gramma.
When anything like this happens I just want to be by my family and friends.
