Remembering 911

11 September 2021

on the night of 11 September 2011 (+8), I still (& will always) remember that i was studying for my Physics Prelim Paper & waiting for the 9pm drama (Ch U 杨门女将) to start. when suddenly, there was a special news coverage inserted, showing footage of a plane (UA175) crashing into WTC South Tower... my 1st impression was "omg! what a freak accident! but why is there already so much smoke before the plane crashed into the tower???"... i called my parents (who were out watching getai) to update them on this news and they didnt believe me, until they watched the news footages after returning home.

i followed the news for that entire night. CNA reported live till about 1am, changing news anchor midway. watching both towers collapsing in real-time is horrifying. the images of the crashes and eventual collapse of WTC are still vivid and haunting till today. obviously, i didnt study much that night.

fast forward 20years later, the world is still fighting against terrorism. terrorism will always be condemned.

May the victims of WTC, AA11, UA175, Pentagon, AA77 & UA93 rest in peace.
