It's quaking at the moment... and some info. · 2:26pm Apr 4th, 2017
For some odd reason, I'm still chilling in the living room with a can of root beer and my laptop instead of diving underneath the table.
It's rare for earthquakes here and being on the 3rd floor of the house is a bit unnerving. By estimate it's around a maybe a 2-3 magnitude quake(s).
Hopefully nothing bad happens.
EDIT: 2 DAYS AFTER INITIAL POST
- It has quaked again. Twice. A magnitude 5.6 and a 5.8.
Fortunately nothing bad happened like skyscrapers crumbling down or sinkholes swallowing up houses or pavement.Thankfully, there was also no casualties. Pretty uneventful apart from the initial panic which was a bit fun due to the 'first timers' screaming 'It's the end of the world' or 'I'm dying' which was a tad bit random. Heck, I even joined in and laid down on the ground then yelled, 'I've fallen. And I can't get up!' which to my surprise, some people actually said, 'Lol, that meme though.'

Okay, so I've barely been active since midway january due to finals but now it's summer vacation-- which is oddly very cold at the moment-- and I've planned to start building up ideas and drafts for any stories I might write. Oh and I may or may not take up a summer job but it's not certain as of yet whether I would find one for a short summer vacation.
Try a pizza joint. Most of the staff are seasonal. Walmart too.

Hmm...
That a good one! Perhaps I'll try to get a standard 6 hour shift. Thanks for the tip!

Noted.
Got some ideas floating around in this skull of mine, which reminds me, 'the immune system does not work in zero gravity'. Eh,I blame sleeping while the tv is on national geographic.
I am aware of the benefit of having editors or having friends to reach out to.
I'm pretty much a 'I'd help if I can type' so I try to edit for others sometimes.
