where the hell was I?

oh yeah, I was at home and got a phone call with a frantic "NY has been bombed"  I thought it had been nuked, but was somewhat pleasantly surprised that it was only the WTC towers.

Well, It was like 11:00 in Australia at night when it happened. I was watching some movie, when all of a sudden the movie changed to a news report. They then had NBC on. It basically switch as soon as it was obvious that it was an attack (the second plane).

I was then up all night just watching in disbelief, it was horrible, watching the whole thing unfold on TV. I had a math exam the next day.

Lets just say that no one did very well.

I was at work here in Germany. I work in the office of a big US Automotive Company. A close friend of mine send me an eMail with a Special Newspaper Topic... that was almost the last thing we could receive over the net ! I managed to print it 20 times, then, all of a sudden the Networkprinters quit their job because of the high Internet Traffic... Phones were ringing and I heard how some US colleague said: "THEY DID WHAT ??? OMG IT´S THE END !!!"
20 Min past the attack and a few phonecalls with my friends and parents later I managed to get on a page in the Internet that provide me with some information for me and my colleagues... it was the PSX2Central Homepage !!!
Now it was 4:50 PM and I rushed home... the streets were almost empty and the few ppl I saw looked sad and confused. Than at home I saw the pictures on TV and cried...

I had that day off and slept thru the first two airplanes hitting but was awoken by my g/f calling to tell me.I didn\'t have any cable for the tv where I was living at the time so I couldn\'t watch any news,so I was left with listening to a local radio station for the latest info.Luckily I had BB tho so I was one of the few who could get online.Read some CNN.com for a while when I could,then made my way here.One thing that stands out in my mind was how the forum members from other parts of the world were here with kind words.

I was at home asleep in bed when my mom rushed in the room and yelled something about us being attacked. Being half asleep, i didn\'t quite believe her, but sure enough, there it was on the news. My grandpa said something about us bearing witness to a major part of history, and only now do i fully understand what he meant.

It was lunchtime when both miss moneypenny and me heard

She works at the local SSPCA (Animal charity) and it was my first time as a volunteer, we were both doing the dog welfare kennels.

At the centre there was no TV or Radio at hand so we heard it by word of mouth from a customer that was in to look at the stray dogs.

At first we didn’t believe it think it was some kind of sick joke, but was soon as we managed to find a radio we wished it was.

That was the first time I was nearly physically sick with the shock of it all.
