Tragedy AT New York WORLD TRADE CENTER
Posted Sep 12, 2001
Oh gosh!!
What a disaster!! *Panic!*
I was busy and then... I heard someone comment that the pentagon was hit. I thought it was rubish.
Then I a friend told me the the news about the World Trade Center... I'm going to miss those twin towers They were the first thing I saw whenever I went to N.Y. I could not see the Empire State Building until I traveled a little further; but the First thing that greeted me were those twin towers.
I'm soo sorry for the poor people down there... thousands of them died. Some jumped from the buildings (about 12).
And what about the ones on the plane.A lady called from her cell phone to her husband and said that men armed with knives Hijacked the plane.
420 police officers and about 400 firemen that showed up to stinguish the first fire WERE caught when the secong plane hit!
They are currently listed as missing
at the end 3 buildings collapsed (tower 1, tower 2 and tower 7)... pentagon is on fire...
President Bush said that he was going to retaliate against those who "took our freedom"... I hope he finds the perpetrators...
So many people... how sad
The aftermath left so much damage... everyone is pulling together to help... U guys should see the footage of the skyline now... it's empty.
So many people haven't heard from each other...
what a horrid event... it shouldn't happen... it doesn't make sense
truck load of xplosives just caught under the George Washington Bridge!! there's more happening... I also heard a car bomb went off!
There's a link on my page to LIVE VIDEO FEED of the coverage, otherwise you should check the live feed at the bbc.
I hope that this is the end of it...

Bowling for the first time!!!
Posted Aug 26, 2001
Well I went bowling today for the first time.
I felt a little funny throwing the ball into the gutter, but i couldn't expect much (cuz it was my first time)
The ball was a little heavy, and all I could remember was the movie "King Pin". I threw my first ball and off into the gutter
My friend went next, he gave me a couple tips
He kept knocking sooo many pins, and I still had zero on the score board
But then finally it clicked, finally i was able to knock about (digging back trying to remember) 4 pins
~what a relief~ finally I didn't have zero anymore
after that, i think my next two turns were gutter balls too, but I still was happy that i had knocked those four pins.
After that, I almost had a strike a few times... and I felt that I was in the game.
My friend ofcourse knocked all of his pins almost every time
But I was happy
YaY!!!! I went bowling for the first time!!!!
