The Day the World Changed

A couple days ago, as I was walking down some random street near Times Square, I was reminded by my sister that I'd be in NYC during September 11th. Even though 9/11 has affected my life in ways that I cannot even begin to describe, the date itself hasn't had as significant an impact on me as others. Usually, when I wake up on 9/11, my first reaction is "GIVE ME TEA" and then "Crap I'm late for school", and as I'm heading to campus on the bus, I suddenly realize it's 9/11. Then I think about whatever's happened since, swear at le bush a couple of times for the havoc he's created in Afghanistan and Iraq and Pakistan, shake my fist at Bin Laden, and return to my music on my iPod.

Anyway. This year will be interesting. I was surprisingly emotional when I went to the site of 9/11 for the first time, so not sure what this year's reaction will be. Will keep ya'll posted.

Now. Back to my TomYum yummy soup.
