Earth Movement

It was 4.46am in the morning. As usual, i was half awake thanks to a very active mind. i was half dreaming of *censored*.

Then, the room shook. The first thing i thought about is not to run, but Jared's waterbed post. I felt like sleeping on a slab of jelly. 19 people reportedly got lightly injured in Tokyo area. Some apparently fell out of bed. hmm. but they had magnitude 5 out of 7. so can't blame them.

It wasn't violent. My Gundam Seed figurine still stood up, but my BB gun almost dropped to the floor. a mild 3 out of a scale of 7. They use a different scale called the "shindo", which is what people feel at that particular location, as compared to the richter scale.



Then i thought. Dang. If it was a big one, i would have to survive on 2 litres of coke, a few packets of caramel popcorn and lots of chocolates. (in the cupboard..heh) Oh. My Kueh Bankit and pineapple tarts are on the table. But i do have to hide UNDER the table, which housed 2 litre bottles of walster sauce, 1 litre bottle of soy sauce, a dustbin and a keyboard. So much for survival. I think its about time to re-org my little bomb shelter.
Anyway, went back to my dream since no one (the japanese) bothered to run.

The next aftershock today was in the office. The 2nd-in-charge looked at me and i looked at him. No sparks or chemistry flew between us. Thank goodness. A small one.

Well, i finally felt it. After 3 months of "missing out". But that is enough for me for this Japan trip.
