My story is similar. I was in Field Bio in college. Someone right before class said they heard a plane had it one of the towers and we just figured it was a small private plane that had lost control. Class ended, walked out and went down into the lobby and it was packed with people looking up at the TV. The minute I looked up one of the towers started coming down (honestly, can't remember if it was the first or second, I was just in shock). I just remember thinking how surreal it was and how this couldn't have been an accident. Then I sped home. My dad works a block over from the Trade Center and my sister was working in Times Square at the time, so you can imagine what was going through my head. My dad use to take the Path to the Trade Center for work, and he was in Trade Center about 20 mins before the first plane hit, and saw everything from his office window. And what's crazy, today is almost exactly like it was that day five years ago. Beautiful and sunny out, not a cloud in the sky.
