Earthquake!
Hey it's Splash again! Guess what?! Today at 4:37 am, an earthquake happened in Southern Illinois. Where I live, people felt it but I was sound asleep. Then at about 2:15 pm there was an aftershock and that time I did feel it. I was on the computer and my desk, computer, and floor shook! My mom's make-up table and scale shook too. My brother was at his desk and that shook also! It's very weird to feel an earthquake here, so today was cool, for me that is. I thought it was just so cool how an earthquake from Southern Illinois could make my town shake! The earthquake was 5.4 on the Richter scale. It was so cool. It was all over the news this morning. You're probably wondering how I could be home all day, but I didn't have school! Oh yeah! Anyways, the news say there should be aftershocks all this month! So if you didn't catch this one, you might have another chance to feel one! Who knew an earthquake could have aftershocks all month long?! Well that's all for now! BYE!

Earthquakes, WOW! We felt the earthquakes here, too pretty strong. (we live in Indiana) It was cool! Keep writing!
I woke up at 12 A.M. about a week ago and I felt an after shock! I was scared to death!
Same with us!!! We woke up and were scared to death, and we live in MEXICO (but speak english)
Actually, scientists said it was at 4:36 A. M. not 4:37. I am so much smarter than you, huh?
