Earthquake

Was doing my "business" in the toilet early morning around 7 plus, getting ready to chit-chat with my family on Skype, when I suddenly felt my POTTY trembling. Yes! Lasted for like maybe 10-20 secs. Well, must be very strong wind, since it's common to feel the windows tremble due to the wind, as the housing here are not structured exactly like back home. The walls, flooring etc are thinner. So nothing strange.

Till K called in the afternoon n told me there was an earthquake. Oh, so that was why my blissful "business" session was interrupted. Apparently, according to the news, it was a 6.0 strength quake, centered in Northern Nevada, just beside Utah (Nevada is where Las Vegas is). Some worse-hit regions experienced buildings tumbling or damaged walls etc. Luckily it wasn't serious here.

Well, this was my 2nd earthquake. First one I experienced was back in 2005, while we were in Japan when K was also on training. Thought I was feeling a little giddy (happened when I was in the toilet too). Was only informed of the quake when K called again. Sigh.... think I have to UP my 危机意识.
