uhhh...just had an earthquake. crap. i was just like looking up a word in my italian dictionary and then i noticed the tissue in the tissue box start to wave just *slightly* but it wouldn't stop. i half thought, "maybe it's the guys downstairs." and half thought, "it's an earthquake." and the slight shaking went on for about ten seconds, and then the shaking became a lot stronger and then it was very obvious we were having an earthquake. the picture frames on my monitor started moving and everything. but the strong shaking was over pretty quick. well actually, you know when there's an earthquake, even if it's a really short one, while it's happening, it just feels like it'll never end? yeah, that's what it felt like. after the shaking stopped, i was like, "uhh...sanaaaaaaz....?" and sanaz and ben came out of her room and asked me if i was all right. they felt it too. obviously, though, because the shaking was strong enough to move small objects. it's so weird though because i didn't think there would be any earthquakes in san diego, especially la jolla because it's so close to the coast. ergh...okay. my heartrate's slowed back down to normal. i'm okay. back to italian.
