很奇怪。我昨天晚上跟一个朋友说我最近睡得不怎么好。他说他的一个朋友有一次在日本虽然有挺大的地震，但是都没醒。 然后我们有地震的时候我也整个夜晚睡了。

I was still up at the time, the whole house shook for about 5 seconds, nothing fell over or everything though. I thought it was just very strong wind or something. It wasn't until I heard about it on the radio in the morning that I realised it was a earthquake.
