I had just started my freshmen year of college 10 years ago and was showering for my 10:30 class. I remember walking down the hall from the shower and seeing everyone glued to the TV. I walked into a friends room and watched the events unfolding in NY. As 10:30 approached I went and got dressed and ready for class as I was not sure what the protocol was for something like this. This was the first time our class was meeting and it was a freshmen class so no one had ever met the professor before. He walked in and started teaching like nothing was going on until a staff member walked in and announced what had happened and that all classes were canceled. We were then released and I drove home to be with my family.

Back home being closer to Logan it was eerie not hearing the usual planes landing and taking off and it was very frightening when some planes flew overhead while flights were grounded. I had nightmares for several years following the attacks but they have finally slowed down.
