I was in grade six, and was on the bus when the first one hit...I don't remember exactly what was said, but I remember wondering why someone would do that kind of thing. When we got to school, principal came on for morning announcements and said something along the lines of the world's gonna be different now and all that...One thing that remains vivid in my mind is going to my grandparents in town after school and watching all the stuff on CNN.
As a bit of an aside, I have a great-uncle who set a post card from there on the 10th...if he'd have been a day later, he could've been dead.
