I did not exist

I existed!!! But was only 2.

5. When the Berlin Wall fell (7/11/1989)
Once again, 2.

6. When the Gulf War began (16/1/1991)
Now I am 4, but not very news oriented.
7. When OJ Simpson was chased in his White Bronco (17/6/1994)
Apparently my mom remembers me reading a newspaper article about OJ. But I don't remember.

8. When the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City was bombed (19/4/1995)
I don't remember when. But I do remember going to my cousin's furneral. She was pregnant when she died, 8 months. She had a daughter who was my age. I don't remember caring. But I do remember being horrified that they had stuck a wire up a tulip to make it stand up straight.

9. When Princess Di was killed (31/8/1997)
Much older now. But did not care.

10. When Bush was first announced President (7/11/2000)
At my friend's house. I didn't care.

11. When the 6.8 earthquake hit Nisqually, WA (28/2/2001)
No idea that this happened.

12.. When terrorists destroyed the World Trade Center (11/9/2001)
At school gathered around the plasma screens while people frantically called parents on cell phones. I remember saying that there was going to be a war. Then a hysterical girl told me shut up.

13. When Columbia disintegrated during re-entry over Texas. (1/2/2003)
I don't remember. But I was angry at the publicity that these 5(?) people got. The only reason such a big deal was made over it was because it was the government's fault. They didn't even mention the thousands of others that died that same day.
