My bed moved away from the wall a good foot distance, I woke up and the walls were moving.
I immediately grabbed my laptop as the most valuable property I had under the roof, but by the time I opened the door the earthquake stopped.
Since it didn't cause any damage other than the destruction of an old brick building, I too can say it was kinda cool:)

I was living in California during the '94 Northridge earthquake. It was scary as hell to wake up to things falling off the shelves and everything shaking. Especially as a kid.

Seattle had a big quake in 2001. I was in class at the time. When the shaking started everyone just kinda stopped for a split second, looked around the room at each other, and then quickly got under their desks like were trained to do. I thought it was kinda fun to be honest.
Maybe if were lucky, one of these days Southern California will have a big enough quake that it will break off and sink into the ocean.
I'd like to experience a moderate earthquake.. Not a concrete building crushing type one but, something descent. Would be nice to add to the life resume..
My family was living in San Leandro when the 89' quake hit the bay area. I was only 4 when it happened but I remember it vividly.
I remember our 90 gallon fish tank splashing all over the place and a couple fish going for a ride and I remember my brothers birthday cake falling off the table on to the floor.
