So, I finally had my first earthquake experience. There have been other quakes since I've gotten here, but this is the first one I've actually felt. Every other time I've been asleep or just generally unaware, but I definitely felt this one.
It didn't last very long, but for a few seconds the apartment building felt like it was wiggling back and forth. I could see clothes hanging in my closet swaying, as well as some power lines and a sign outside my window. It was weak enough that the dishes didn't even rattle and I had no problem standing upright and walking around. All in all, not a particularly scary earthquake.
That's about all I have to report. Just wanted to let you know that I'm safe here, and not particularly distressed.
