Earthquake
Recently, as in two days ago, an Earthquake struck where I lived. It was only a 2.0 but still pretty big for where we live. It was really cool but really freaky at the same time. I was cleaning the bathroom when it happened and at that point, I was scrubbing the bathtub. As I was scrubbing, it looked like it moved. I thought it was broken or something and I tried to shake after it happen but it didn't budge. I thought that maybe I was going crazy and then I thought that maybe I moved and got a little dizzy or something. I continued cleaning it, didn't think much of it afterwards, and then a minute or so later my dad walks in and tells me that we just had an earthquake. At the first the cellphones weren't working but then they started working and once they did we started texting people and calling people to make sure they were okay. And thank God-they were. It wasn't big enough to do damage, thank God. But it was big enough that we could feel it, feel it a lot. That was the first ever earthquake I have ever experienced, and it was definitely an experience. I made a mistake. I thought there was more damage in Virginia but I was wrong. Sure people lost their cars, windows broke, but it wasn't a lot of damage. I thought there was but there wasn't. Please forgive me. I just thought since it was a 5 something earthquake that it caused a lot of damage but it didn't. Thanks for reading!

Where I live, we get, like, three earthquakes a day. But they're so small we usually can't feel them...

And plus, it affects the people. I had a phobia of thunderstorms when I was little. Now it's back, though not as bad as before, because the thunder reminds me of the earthquake. And those huge trucks thundering past? Yep, that makes me jump sometimes, too. (ancient news, I know, but I saw it and felt the need to reply...)

We get earthquakes on the West Coast, but not as much in the NW. Seattle hasn't had an earthquake since 2001. I kind of remember it. I was young, so I was just really confused and eating soup. California gets a lot of earthquakes, though, and I just missed on in Eastern Washington a couple months ago (we got out before it started).

We had one it was a 7.something but it was pretty far away so it didn't shake the house a lot but it lasted for a minute or so.
