13th JUNE 1 AM

I'm not sure how many of you are aware of the earthquake that recently happened in Chennai. It was on June 13th at 1:00 AM! It was quite an experience... 7.7 on the Richter scale. I was at the office. Everyone was busy with calls, and I decided to take a 10-minute break. I sat down on my chair, relaxing... Suddenly, the chair started shaking. I thought my friend was messing with me, but when I turned around, no one was there. I could feel the shaking, and my chair started moving from its original place. The whole building was shaking—an earthquake! We all rushed out through the emergency exit. Wow! I couldn’t believe it—the entire building shook for 10–20 seconds. It was fascinating to witness nature’s rare act! Originally published on 19-Jun-2010
