Felt My First Earthquake!

Quick post! Was lying on my bed this afternoon and I felt my first earthquake! Being an Earth Science student I got a bit excited! :D It was only a small one, 3.5. The building creeked and I was jolted horizontally, forwards and then backwards! Pretty cool - but its a reminder how dangerous this country can be. A lot of people today said they never used to take much notice of quakes but after the Christchuch quake in 2011 people are a lot more nervous. No damage here.
