The day that the World Trade Center was destroyed. Thanks to Osama bin Laden, who, thank God, died in 2011. I remember Mom picking me up from school on that day when she heard that news. I was in 1st grade at the time. I saw that on the news when I got home, and I was crying when the World Trade Center was destroyed. I couldn't even watch TV that day. They even cancelled school for the rest of the week because of it.

Back then, I worked as a dental assistant, and that week was when I got back from maternity leave with my first child, Matthew. Seeing the news coverage that day was one of only two times that I ever saw my boss (who was in his mid-60s and used to love going to New York City whenever he had vacation time) cry at work.

I came home from school in the UK and watched it all unfold live on TV. I don't think it actually registered with me that I was watching thousands of people die right before my eyes. Yeesh.

I'm an '06 baby, but my mom was in college at the time, and when she told me about the attack. She first thought that it wasn't real and that it was something out of a movie trailer. I can only imagine how terrifying it must have been for people to see that.

What a tragic moment for all Americans. 9/11 will never be forgotten. It's crazy that Jay-Z released The Blueprint on that violent day when I saw the Twin Towers fall on CNN. Then, the Pentagon in Virginia was torn apart minutes later. Man, this was too much. All the victims and families whose lives we lost or were impacted, we will support you all. And to Jay-Z, thanks for such a hot classic.

My mother worked on one of the highest floors of the World Trade Center, but her water broke at 6 a.m., and we were at Bellevue Hospital. My mother told me she wished she could have held me in.

I was in college that day and I have never seen my professor break down and cry upon getting a phone call from a family member of his to turn on the TV as something had happened at the Pentagon.

One of my cousins years ago told me about seeing their teacher crying that day after their elementary class had returned from PE. And my cousin believes they had the TV on that day, but only for some "Disney" movie instead of having the news coverage playing as some other classes in their school did.
