Ok, I'm not actually writing this on September 11th but had to write a diary entry about the day that changed for almost everyone... On September 11th I went to bed at 7am when I got home from working night shift the night before.. So I missed everything. But at 4pm when I woke up I checked my messages on my machine and a friend had left me a message around 930am saying that 2 planes flew into each of the towers of the World Trade Center in New York City.. I thought to myself what the fuck and went and turned on my tv.. First thing I saw was a video clip of a guy in new york filming with this camera one of the towers coming down and this cloud of debris was flying at him when he ducked behind a car saying.. Please let me live.. I was in shock then after the news had showed me what i missed earlier in the day.. I saw the 2nd plane hit the trade center and wondered if I believed what I was seeing.. I watched a bunch of stuff about it then had to go to work.. When I took the subway the people as i looked around all looked like they were in shock.. never seen such a bunch of depressed looking people on the subway.. Then me going to work.. Here I work for an American company in Canada (MERRILL LYNCH) and didnt know what to think.. Everyone from my company had been sent home earlier in the day.. So here I get to be the guini pig who actually has to come to work.. I really wasnt too worried because I think whatever was meant for that day had gone down and nothing else was going to happen.. Then when i was at work.. my boss called and asked me if I was worried about being here which I wasnt really.. then he said that the building security was doubled which I cracked yeah im sure the extra security will stop a plane from flying into the side of the building.. For the following couple days I sat by my tv when i got home from work and watched the news.. flipping channels.. every channel covered this and there wasnt anything on but i found myself drawn to watching the news.. and watching stories of people who were missing.. other stories of people who survived.. and crazy made up stories.. So why did this happen? Whoever is repsponsible for this is one sick mother fucker... :( and I hope they get whoever it is whether its bin laden or other people.. For weeks after I found myself thinking about it.. alot.. one night i was quite bombed at a club with Jason and was sitting with a guy we knew and said just said wasnt that the most fucked up thing you have ever seen.. forgetting that he worked for an airline..
Is there going to be a war? I curtainly hope nothing huge.. But this terrism shit is uncalled for.. We do take things for granted in this side of the world.. But this assholes who did this? these assholes who actually believed in this cause so much that they took there own lives? Thats just plain sick and all of them will go to hell for it.. Lets just hope we dont see anything like this again in our lifetimes... |
