Earthquake!

I just experienced my first earthquake since comming to Japan. It was a really small one, over in no more than a second or two, and it would hardly even have been worth taking notice of had it not been for the fact that I've never felt one before.

As it is, I am kinda excited! I was sitting in my bed, browsing Facebook, when suddenly I felt the bed shaking slightly. Hearing a breaking noise from somewhere below, I realized it was not just the bed, but the whole building that was shaking. Sometime in the moments following the short quake, I also noticed a telephone cable outside my window wobble as if set in motion by some force.
