Earthquake

Today was a first for me.  At 1:51 pm while we were in class, there came a roaring sound and then everything started shaking.  It was an earthquake!  It felt like it lasted about 30 seconds.  Some ran out of the building while the rest of us scrambled under the tables.  After the shaking stopped we all left the building.  Needless to say, class was over at that point.  Fortunately we didn't have another class at 2:00 so we could all just go chill and recover.  I've always wondered what it felt like to experience an earthquake; now I know.  There was no damage but we all were a little shaken (no pun intended) from the experience.  To top off this excitement, we could experience the effects of Hurricane Irene this weekend.  Never a dull moment here at the ILC.
