Smallville - Did He Really Die?

So, I was watching Smallville (what else is new I know), and Lionel dies??? It was a WTF moment for sure! Lex just upped and pushed him out the window! WOW I was not expecting that! I mean maybe I should have seen it coming? I’m sure the clues have been there all along, it’s been building up to…something? But this? I, I was shocked to say the least! Lionel was starting to grow on me. But if he’s dead? Who knows what will happen next. Part of me is wondering if he was a clone. If he actually faked his death, or had his clone confront Lex because he knew Lex would do something to kill him? I’m not sure. But then again, why would the clone be wearing the locket with the key? So many unanswered questions! On to the next episode!

Bad Dreams

So I’m having nightmares from the attacks on the 11th. I keep dreaming that I’m back in High School and I’m trying to warn people about the attacks that are about to take place. But no one will listen to me. I’ve hard of survivors guilt, but I wasn’t there…can that still be true if you weren’t there? I don’t know. But something is making me dream about these things and I don’t want to dream about them anymore!

Student Of The Month

Today I was awarded “Student of the Month” at school. They played some patriotic songs while we waited for the ceremony to begin. My thoughts weren’t on the ceremony at all, I was too busy thinking about all the people who died yesterday and will probably die today due from complications to what happened yesterday. I wondered if they would say anything about the 11th, but they didn’t. It was business as usual kind of thing. The ceremony was nice, my parents were there to cheer me on. I know it’s not a glamorous award, I mean they hand them out every month. But it felt good to be recognized.

September 11, 2001

Woke up this morning to the news on the TV. It appeared a small plane had crashed into the World Trade Center (one of the towers) in New York. I went to school thinking nothing of it. That’s when the unexpected happened. On my way to school, another plane hit the other tower. A jetliner. New York was under attack. Needless to say school kinda froze at that point. That’s all anyone was talking about. We gathered around the instructors computer and watched and read the headlines on the internet. The news was putting out information as quickly as they could about the terrorist attacks. Then there was the Pentagon. Another airplane crashed into the Pentagon. I don’t know how serious that one was. We gathered in another classroom where they got a TV working. We watched as the World Trade Center (both towers) came crashing down. So many people died today. I can’t even fathom it. What a terrible day to be alive.
