I was actually 10 and about to turn 11 myself, having just started attending middle school barely 2 weeks prior. I was barely old enough to have some grasp of what was going on and why it was happening.
|
Ugh yea, I can't remember a thing about this happening, I was probably too young because I can't imagine it not being aired on television. The only disaster I do remember hearing of shortly after it happened was the tsunami 8 years ago.
|
I was 10 years old, nearly 11. I was walking out of my room at 7am to start getting ready for school and Mum was watching it on the TV. I had no idea what the Trade Center was before that day. I got the day off school though because Mum was paranoid and wanted to keep my sister and I close in the event that this was the beginning of World War 3 lol.
|
I was 8 years old when that happened, I think. I think it was the second day already when I knew it as it happened while I was probably asleep or something (time zones). The morning news the next day on TV covered it all.
|
I was like 5 when they were hit. I didn't know that they even existed, so I didn't know that they got hit. It wasn't until a few years later that I figured out what it was. My mom never really talked about it, and she didn't freak out about it. Opposite sides of the country, so it hasn't affected me personally.

My father was actually planning on going to America to work for a while (it would be like a work holiday lol) but then 9/11 happened and he was like, yeah . . . no.
|
I was in the fifth grade at the time, I was just old enough to realize "HOLY CRAP! REALLY?". I hadn't paid any attention to conflict between the USA and the middle east, but because of the significance of the event, I had actually thought that was when the whole conflict began for the longest time.
|
I was actually a work at the time, and I remember we all stopped and starred at the television wall in shock. Everybody, staff, customers, everybody... just stopped. It was the single most surreal moment of my life.
|
9/11, I was in 4th grade and my teacher told us what happened. It was the talk of the playground and it was on every TV station when I got home.
|
On 9/11 I was about 4 years old. I was at my preschool and didn't know what was going on at the time. It was a normal preschool day for me. I didn't know until years later.
|
I basically had the same experience as Yuki's Sword. It wasn't until we watched a documentary about it in eighth grade that I had the full impact of the event.
|
I think it took for me until I read articles and stuff about 911 that I know full well what happened and the various repercussions that it caused. By then I'm in high school, 10th grade-equivalent.
|
My aunt lives in Brooklyn and she happened to be visiting us in Texas when it happened, and was meant to fly back that day but obviously didn't. We were really lucky.
|
I was in Art Class at the time and I remember the teachers running around from room to room and whispering in each others ears, then their eyes would get all wide. I knew something was up. I didn't find out until second period when I got to History Class, where it was on TV.
|
I was nine, and at school when 9/11 happened. They announced it over the P.A. system soon after it happened, and lots of parents came to pick up their kids from school right there and then, mine included. Both my parents came home early from work and picked my sister and I up from school out of fear something was to happen here (Ontario, Canada). We were all scared.
|
I was just leaving class and my mom said that some towers in New York had been hit and that the top of both had fallen, and I asked whether they'd still be around, but smaller. I didn't really know what was going on until I got back homr and turned the TV on, around four hours late.
I was like 10, but I was already reading a comic magazine with lots of political information by then so I understood what it meant not too long afterwards. |
I was leaving school also; my mum's friend picked my brother and I up and drove us home, and the radio kept talking about an explosion in New York. Then, when we got back, all of the TV channels were on rolling news stations. For a spliiiiiiit second I was kinda annoyed that cartoons weren't going to be shown, but then I listened to what was actually happening and thought this was probably a good time not to watch The Cramp Twins.
|
Uh wtf is "The Cramp Twins" Cat Dog
|
This is The Cramp Twins, Toujours! It was never very good, but it was something I always seemed to watch for some reason.
|
Dear God I hated the Cramp Twins. Although it pales in comparison to how terrible the Horrid Henry series is/was. My brother watched them daily, couldn't stand it.

See, that name I know. |
Other way around for me. I know Cramp Twins but never heard of Mew Mew Power before.
|
wtf are we talking about. Cramp Twins? And mew mew power? o.o
|
Oh, I remember the Cramp Twins! I disliked that series, but it was on all. the. time. on CN Spain. I enjoyed the Powerpuff Girls, Dexter and Codename KND much better though.
