I woke up to my mom my mom yelling "Get up! Look at the TV! It's our world..."

I stumbled out of bed, glanced at the clock. It was early in the morning. About 7:00 I think.

I walked slowly to the living room and sat on the couch. The TV came into focus just in time for me to see the second plane crash into the WTC.

I sat staring at the TV for 24 hours. Didn't eat, didn't move. I was in shock, barely comprehending what was being said.

Then I cried.

I eventually signed up with the Army (ROTC at school), something I would never have considered before 9/11.
