I'm in Charleston, IL (Eastern Illinois University) and that earthquake shook my bed so hard it woke me right up.

Well, i was sleeping in the basement and i cant tell if i woke up due to the shaking or because the person upstairs was yelling earthquake, haha.

This is the 1st one i've felt and in the basement, it was awesome.

Felt like an ultra subsonic rumble that gradually got less and less powerful until it just stopped.

Makin me think.... I want this song with that stereo setup, hehe.

Haha I know, it was crazy. I thought it was my roommate shaking my bed to mess with me, but when I opened my eyes and no one was in my room I got real confused. Then I heard the cups and plates in the cabinet ratteling and my bed was still moving back and forth. Pretty crazy considering I live in a 4-story, 56 unit apartment building.

I'm sitting in my classroom and I just felt another quake. Much less powerful and for only a few seconds....everyone else felt it too so I can't be imagining this.

I'm late on this, but we felt it here in South Bend. That's amazing to me that it would reach this far. Mother Nature is a true beast.
