I was in high school then. I used to sleep with the television on (for noise). I woke up and they were rolling footage of the events. I remember the borders around the pictures were BRIGHT RED, telling all sorts of information.

I went to school and all we did was watch the news and things based around the events. I remember my art teacher being in hysterics. I later found out that she possibly had family in the area. It ended up being that she didn't, which was, obviously, great news.
