9/11 Abroad

All day today I was expecting my ever opinionated classmates in school to come up to me with their thoughts on the events of September 11, 2001. All day I expected someone to remember I’m from the New York metropolitan area and give me that bewildered and all knowing look. All day I waited for the moment of silence and the hush of a bustling crowd, but it never came, and why should it? I’m in Sarajevo after all, not the US. To the Bosnians I saw walk the streets it was just an average Wednesday.
