5.6

i was rudely awakened by a mild earthquake today at around 8:30ish. apparently, the epicenter was a town called anza, which news reports say, is about 20 miles south of palm springs. i've grown quite accustomed to earthquakes, having lived in california for almost seven years now.

sometimes, it makes you just go and wonder as to whether this is already 'the big one.' like yesterday, i was jolted by the quake, but i was sort of waiting for a bigger jolt for me to do something. i was just there, lying on my bed, waiting. thank god, there wasn't anything stronger.
