  13. OMG, Diamond bar was only 5 miles away from the heart of the earthquake. my house took a pretty bad beating. but everyone is ok with the exception of my mother in law, she had to get stitches in her head from a bookshelf falling on her head. but as of now she's doing better. I was at work when it happened and i felt a pretty good jolt. I'm still shaken up a bit.

    glad to hear you're ok though!

  15. I was in my room when it happened. I thought dogs sense earthquakes before it happens. Tobey was sleeping away before, during, and after the earthquake on my bed. What kind of dog is he!?!?... lol~

  16. Oh my goodness. I was sleeping in Fullerton with the bf, and the jolt woke us both up! He just grabbed and protected me (: haha & everyone at home in Diamond bar is fine.. except my 4 year old half-sister (being the bitch that she is) ran outside, forgetting about everyone else. haha.

    I'm glad you're okay (: I hope the bf is fine too!

  17. I was at the post office, felt the pre-shock (is that a word?), looked at everyone and asked if that was an earthquake. They all insisted it was a truck going by until a split second later when the bigger one hit. You don't feel trucks going by in the soles of your feet of a 1 story building!

    JaclynRose - sounds like you've gotten the worst of it so far; hope all is ok.

    Think maybe I shouldn't have cancelled my mother's earthquake insurance last week?

  22. Aww, I'm glad you are ok! I heard somewhere that when earthquake hits, stand under a doorway. It's usually the most stable in the whole house.

  23. yea I'm in west LA and I definitely felt it, especially cause our office building is on rollers so it swayed a lot. The elevators got shut down for safety reasons, thankfully we only had to walk down 6 stories instead of walk up

  31. Hahah it's been a while sine we got an earthquake I think....
    at least one that lasted longer than usual.

    I was on my way out to work and the moment I closed my door it rattled.
    It was my first earthquake I've ever felt from outside. It was kind of exciting.

    I was on the phone with the boyfriend when it struck and a second after I said "woahhhh" he felt it too haah and he's about 15 miles or so from Diamond bar and I'm about 30 minutes away here in the I.E.

  32. P.S.

    What phone service did everyone have that didn't work?

    I have verizon and it seemed to work just fine where I was.

    Maybe it was just the phones out more in the L.A. area that didn't work.
