I was in Janub Al-Surra yesterday around 2am, in Al-Salam area, me and my friends were sitting in the living room on the second floor of a three floors house, i was reading some blogs on the internet, and suddenly i felt like someone was moving the sofa i was sitting on back and forth, at first i couldn’t even understand what was going on, then i realized it was an earthquake, the bottle of water that was on the table in front of me was moving, it was very weird, and also the first time I’ve felt an earthquake, it lasted for a minute or two, me and my friends were all asking each other “earthquake? was that an earthquake?” yes an earthquake!

    I didn’t feel that one but I felt another one in another country this year. I was in bed surfing the net when all of a sudden the bed started to shake. It was so strong! Strong enough to wake up everyone. As short and as quick as it was, it felt like my whole life was played right before my eyes, in fastforward!

    Next time push the slow motion button! It’s more fun to watch! But in Japan, the people are so used to it that whenever an earthquake hits them they just stand in their places without moving till the earthquake ends then continue walking like nothing happened.

    Slow motion, I’d rather not! Japan Allah y3eenhom. I guess when you’re used to something it’s not as strange to you as it may seem to others.
