I was a freshman in high school. I'll never forget that the first person to break the news of the attack was my 75 year old lesbian gym teacher. Me and my buddies just camped out in front of a TV and watched it all unfold for most of the morning and when we found out the terrorists were from Afghanistan I'll always remember one friend asking 'Afghanistan? Who the **** are they?' One or two teachers (Mr. Shriver especially) continued along with their lesson plan and lectured that day, but most just let us watch the TV in their room. Was one of the saddest (but luckiest) days of my life because my aunt was supposed to be in the Pentagon that morning but her meeting got postponed and she wasnt there at the time of the attack which may or may not have affected her (she's really not sure). RIP to all of the innocent that died that day and God Bless the USA!
