I was home just waking up for class, I turned on the TV right after it happened, then my mom called and asked me what was going on...it was right about the time they said it was terrorists. As I was on the phone with her she started crying and I remembered my father was supposed to go to a meeting in the 1st tower that day and promptly ran into the bathroom and got sick... My sister ran home from Ewing High as I was running into my car to get her, then we went to pick up my other sister from elementary school, my mom's friend drove her home from work. Basically, we didn't know if my father was alive or dead until 4PM when he finally got a hold of us...It turns out he got into the city late, and was about 3 blocks away from the towers when they fell, he and his coworkers were in another coworkers apartment...i'll never forget how I felt that day I don't think i've ever been that scared and that numb all at once in my life.
