Overheard in the office during the tremors,

"The first earthquake was 6.6 and the second earthquake was 6.3. That's quite high."

"6663! BUY 4D!"

(Note: There are different magnitudes recorded for the quakes because well, there are different stations recording)

Did you all feel the tremors yesterday? Apparently, my office was one of the areas that experienced tremors. In fact, the people in front of me, behind me, beside me, ALL felt the tremors except me. Everyone was talking about how they can feel the building shake and I honestly didn't feel anything. Which is actually rather disappointing because I've always wanted to experience tremors. I think I "felt" the second tremor, but I'm not sure if it's because I did feel it, or I imagine it. Or maybe I was more awake during the second tremor to feel it -_-''

Anyhow, the night before the earthquakes happened, I was remarking to His Royal Highness that our internet connection was extremely slow and maybe "there's an earthquake somewhere". Eh, what a coincidence.

Even though I think earthquakes are extremely cool (the Geography aspect of it anyway), the truth is earthquakes do bring devastation and tons of secondary effects. So here's hoping, the people affected can get through this period.

Ok, I'm falling sick or rather I've never completely recovered from the previous time I fell sick. And since I finished watching Hana Kimi (LOUSY ENDING), there's no reason for me to have late nights(:
