Large aftershock just knocked out the power. It was only out for like...five minutes, but that was five minutes of me panicking that it was starting all over again. And it seemed to last a lot longer. I checked the water and that was fine (thank Christ, I really didn't do well without the water), and then my fan came back on and I felt this ( Read more... )

That must have been awful! Ugh I now truly hate power outages. I never quite realised how dependant I am on power and light for a sense of security until we were sitting in the dark for an hour on Tuesday. I nearly cried with relief when the lights popped on.

I know the experts are saying that there are less aftershocks from this quake than september but it really doesn't feel like that. This feels so much worse. Perhaps its just my memory playing tricks on me. Also the fact the epicentre is so much closer. And that people died.

Your cat is an adorable agent of chaos. Also she is my Phillip. When I feel stressed (from reading too much earthquake stuff or looking at photos of the piles of rubble) I go look at the pics of her that you have put on facebook. So far you haven't got to the promised 200 ^_^

This website also helps me feel better and all happy squishy inside.

AWWWW! I think the fact that you look at pictures of Ariadne to make yourself feel better makes me happier than much of anything has! I love that! I shall put more up, I am sure I have some more :D And she is indeed adorable. She pushes stuff off my desk when she wants attention, the little cutie.

And yeah, having no power isn't good. I nearly cried when it came back on too. And when the water came back (all three times!) I think the aftershocks are less but they're boomier and I do not like them. They didn't bother me so much before. Not like this. Bleh.

BUT YAY ANIMALS!

I am feeling the same way about starting my course again.
We are starting again on the 14th of March in out new tempory campus which will be a 10 minute walk from my house, which is great because it is so close to my house should anything go wrong, but I don't feel I am ready tp bei "normal" again when so much in the city isn't normal and won't be for a very long time. All I really feel like doing at the moment is just sitting and staring, usually at the telly or the computer. I just don't know how well LEARNING ALL THE THINGS is going to go.

I am not getting notifs *kick*

And yeah, I bet you are too. Augh. I don't like this feeling. I'm panicky and ick. I am glad it's close to home for you! But yeah. I don't think I'm ready to be normal again either. No way. I kind of want to sit and stare too. Right there with you.

Augh.
