9.11 同時多発テロの日の様子を日記にしました。
               大学から家への帰りの様子です。  
               After I left the campus, 
I first went to the gas station to refill the gas. 
It was open as usual. 
               When I left the gas station and was waiting at a trafic light, 
I realized someone in front of me honking horn. 
I didn't know why? The light was still RED. 
               I looked at the guy suspiciously. 
He pointed me first and then to his right. 
So I looked my left and realized I was on the right side of the road, 
which is the opposite of where I was supposed to be.  
              
              
		
                  
               I gave him a sign waving my hand and said "Sorry." 
And I moved to the left lane. 
Seemed like I was still out of my mind.  
               10 minutes drive from there, I was at the entarance of a highway, R495. 
It was closed... A sign said "DETOUR" 
I was kinda paniced a little bit. 
I'd never gone home w/o using highway. 
 
               I called Sam and asked how he went home since he left campus earlier. 
Maybe a couple of hours earlier. 
He told me that all highway were totally closed for ambulance, fire truck, and police car. 
He also told me that he had to go home w/o highway 
and the traffic was so heavy, so he was just only a half way. 
               So, I headed to my apartment in Astoria, Queens. 
I turned on the radio and tried to pick up any news regarding the attack. 
Still I couldn't find who were behind it, 
but had to know there would be expected a large number of casualties, tens of thousands possibly. 
               On my way home, I felt it was like forever. 
               It took more than 4hrs to get home. 
(for just 17-20miles) 
8:30 PM now.   
               I arrived at my apartment at last 
and walked up stairs to fifth floor for my room.  
               It was a very long drive, but I do not remember anything clearly.
