Well I don't know what they are doing at the Pentagon(where I work) but they are making a really cool memorial for the people who passed on.

And being from NY, I really miss WTC being in the sky.

But nothing special other than a moment of silence I am sure and there might be a memorial service here...

just glad I wasn't in the building that day...

Ground Zero has become almost like an amusment park for some...

There's those selling "9/11" teddy bears and any 9/11 memorabilia...

There's tourists that have their families smile and pose in front of ground zero to take pictures...

It wasn't like that until the year anniversery.

I used to walk around lower Manhattan all the time.
Up until the year anniversery.. it was a very solomn.. very peaceful place.

Now it's commercialized and the memory cheapened. Sad.

Deana said not to buy the americanized moon cakes without eggs. h:

I'm going to be up all night playing hymns on my keyboard and stuff.

Actually, I'll probably be

I went to see it over the summer as well. i said the same thing once i saw it, and i can't imagine what the chaos looked like on that day.
