9/11

My parents, and other people of their generation frequently say that they will always remember where they were and what they were doing when they found out that JFK had been shot.  I have two sad events that I'll always remember.

April 19, 1995 - Never Forget!   I'm proud to be from Oklahoma.

I was in my dorm room, getting ready for my English Comp class when my friend Cord called me, telling me to turn on the TV.  I'll never forget that moment.  I walked to class in a daze, and was relieved to find out that class had been canceled.

One of my floor-mates was celebrating her birthday that beautiful September day.  We somehow managed to get her a cake and be happy for a little while that evening.
