Earthquake

Experienced my first earthquake tonight.

I don't know if I heard it, or if there was a slight tremble that I was unaware of. Either way, I'm in the middle of a movie, and, like a dog, my ears perk up and I think, "Uh oh". I knew exactly what was coming.

You could hear a faint rumbling and then the building shook. About 10 seconds later, gone.

Nothing too special besides it being my first. Imagining a big earthquake now is scary though.

Can't find much info about it. Apparently it was a 5.3 off the east coast of Okinawa, but I don't know if that's what I felt.

All the info you'd ever want to know about an earthquake in Japan. It was cool, wasn't it?
