    This is how I found out too. I remember 9th grade had just begun and it was the first class of the morning. Replays of the planes hitting the towers were playing over and over when we walked into the classroom. I was living in Alaska at the time so it felt like a world away. It was all very surreal.

      We learnt about it on the news, but actually am a world away.

      Seemed like a movie villain without being able to fully grasp what’s happening. Around that time terrorist events were happening around the world too.
