A sign of things to come?

Today, 8th October (which holds alot of significance- Abeera, tell u later;), i had not one but TWO midterms... so the weekend was half ruined.... spent all day yesterday and the day before studying...but the point of this post is not to bore you with my studious activities, but rather...
well you see, we're sitting there in the hall... i'm done with my paper, last 5 minutes left... n i'm getting really annoyed at the guy behind me coz hes like constantly shaking his leg and its hitting the backof my chair... or atleast thts wht it felt like... so i glance back at him to tell him to stop but... hes not doing anything... so i'm thinking, ok, weird.... why the heck is my whole seat n desk shaking then? and then it got more intense... and then everyone jus stopped and looked up questioningly... and then... any guesses?
well bascially my first ever exam in lums ended in an EARTHQUAKE!!!! dude... tht wuz jus freaky and weird and scary all in one... everyones sort of like..ummm shud we get up n leave? shud we keep sitting here n looking around like we duno whats going on? coz technically we're in an exam hall and we cant leave... it wuz funny though, coz i bet lotsa ppl cheated in those two mintues... all the invigilators were jus like confused n trying to calm ppl down n ppl kept going "maybe we shud leave, for like, safety reasons! screw computer science!"...
Anyway, so i t was finaly over in like..i duno..more than a minute... which is a long time for the ground ur standing on to be shaking!! it wuz jus odd. :S.... when i left my mamu called from islamabad n hes like tht was a 7.5 earthquake there and there was quite a bit of damage...
Apparently now there are aftershocks predicted... hopefully everything will be fine coz i wana go n sleep now but i duno if its safe to be indoors!!!... anyway... take care people... n wish me luck for my papers!!
