I'm Australian and it was 11pm or so when things went down, my dad was awake but didn't get us up. I remember seeing something on the newsstands as I ran for the train in the morning. But I was playing in the band for someone's final exams so was in a rush. Then when we got to the music building they let us listen to the radio. But later the principal decided to not let us know ANYTHING and I was pissed. All 13 years old of me wrote her a scathing letter about how shittily I felt they handled the situation (with my English teacher parents blessing). We had a meeting about it but it was just bullshit. I was pissed though. I remember being home in the afternoon watching all the replays. Still haunting to watch to this day. I get mad too though, at the still hatred toward Muslims. I traveled throughout the Middle East in 2008 and people still thing I was loving crazy. It was the greatest thing I've ever done. The people were endlessly kind and hospitable, excited I had come to visit their countries, which were beautiful. It makes me so goddamn angry whenever people bitch about Muslims. There are extremists in every walk of life. Now I live in the southern US so imagine the reactions I get when I tell people about my trip.
