Oh, yeah, it was nothing really, it's just a bit freaky when the house starts shaking! Kowaii~~!!! *_*

I expect I'll have to get used to it. Hey, do you get quakes at all?

I totally understand. Even someone like me who's experienced lots of quakes gets freaked out when one does happen! O_O

The latest ones were around a month ago, I think. Intensity 3 or something. Lasted 30-40 seconds.

The biggest quake I experienced was almost 15 years ago, intensity 7.8.

But I'm sure you have nothing to worry about, most buildings in Japan are designed to withstand quakes. Something about incorporating springs in the post foundations, or something. So the structure sways with the movement. ^^; Sorry engineer in me got carried away. XD

Heh. Is fine, babe, is fine! XD I'm in Industrial Engineering. Think of products and processes. Think of logistics. Think of quality control, and time management, and ergonomics. Think of product design and development. Think statistics and market demographics.

Think... boring, basically. ^^;

I think... I think my brain just broke! *_* Engineering is way too complex and mathematical for me to handle!

Ooh, but I like a certain lovely, brainy engineer friend of mine who, after a long day at work, goes home and writes... YAOI!! Hahaha, so much for being boring, eh? ^^

That's the coping mechanism for my poor addled brain. Ahehe. @_@

*blush* Now that you have a digicam, you still owe me a pic! ^_-

Hey do me a favor, K? Please check this out. Am trying to get support for a friend. ^_^ You have to "friend" the account to be able to vote, but any feedback is always good for an artist. ♥ Thanks lots!

Cameras and I don't get along, but I'll see what I can come up with. ^^V

Hm, I'm not usually a big fan of that kind of 3d computer art, but I'm willing to give my input. She doesn't mind if random people friend her account?

Happy dance! *boogie* will finally "see" ditch-chan! ^_^

Thank you! Input is all that's needed, and much appreciated. XD Yes, she did give the go-signal to go ahead and do that. Thanks again! ^3^
