I was in the 700 building (very old) on the second floor...watching a movie on neandrathals. and cavemen when the projector started to shake...one girl screamed...my friend did the duck and cover like quick status....everyone else just was like............ummm....ok....
It wasnt bad though. But everyone outside using their phones and none of them working......very funny but surreal moment.

Iv been in virginia for the past week and while the earthquake was going on. After I saw what happen on breaking news on tv here, I called my bro back in san gabriel to see if everything was ok and he told me "while it was happening, I was taking a crap in the bathroom and thought I was just laying a big one, but 10 seconds later is when I finally realize it wasn't me, it wasn't so bad".... I laughed my *** off...
