UIS - The Real Deal

Sorry it's been so long since I've blogged, but my blog hasn't been letting me publish the posts :(

Last Thursday night we had an earthquake!! I was at home, in my bed, fast asleep. Then I heard my door rattling. I thought it was my brother trying to annoy me. But when I woke up a little more, I realized that my whole room was shaking. So I got up and ran to my parents' room. My brother & I got there about the same time & realized that it was the earthquake. Overall, it lasted probably about 30 seconds. The next morning I was at work and I felt an aftershock, too! It was around 10 in the morning, and I was one of the only people in the office that felt it too, which was strange. One of the other ladies in the office didn't feel the quake in the middle of the night and definitely thought that I was lying to her. It took us like fifteen minutes to convince her that there actually was an eaarthquake. It was the biggest earthquake since 1968, which was insane. And I've heard that there have been about 22 aftershocks. But overall, it was slightly strange.

I hope that everyone was ok. There wasn't any real damage or injuries that I heard of at least! Hope you guys have a good week!!
