Is there any Japanese who has experienced earthquake at 3/11? I mean in the member of italki.

Miku's notebook entry: Mar 15, 2011 About earthquake in Fukushima city ,3/11 I was in the classroom with my friends.We were writing report with computers. When we felt shook, at first, we thought it is just usual small earthquake. We had many small earthquakes these days. So, maybe we were used to, good or bad. But the shook became bigger, we though we had to hide anywhere immediately.We went to under desks. I remember the earthquake in NZ. We couldn't move with fear. I thought the earthquake last forever. I heard the screaming of my other friends in another room.. but I couldn't help them. Under the desk, we cheered up each other with calling "It's not problem at all!" " Are you OK?" "I'm OK, and you?"-almost we shouted but we couldn't stop it. I wished that not to be broken panes of window.Finally,it wasn't broken. After the earthquake, teacher run up to our class room and we went out to the playground. We had many aftershock. It was scary and the weather became very cold with snowing. All students talking loudly and laughing hysterically about their experience. Maybe they'd like to get relaxed unconsciously. I didn't know about how the earthquake was affected whole over Japan at the time. I just worried about my mom and grandma... (Fortunately, I found that they were safe after them)

Miku's notebook entry: Sep 14, 2010 "We do not want to be a burden on our families. We have been through a lot, and we are not afraid of death." http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/crossing_continents/2862051.stm I think death would solve nothing. But, for elder, in this cases, they have little information. And they are placed difficult position in social( Maybe living with no production make them the weak? Especially in country side ) .It is the problem that they have only one choice to keep their pride :(

Miku's notebook entry: Sep 14, 2010 "Probably to avoid the social pressure that drinking with acquaintances may cause, more and more people have also been choosing to have their drinking parties online in convenient virtual meeting places provided by major brewers, or in drinking chat sessions." http://globalvoicesonline.org/2010/09/12/japan-drinkommunication-when-drinking-alcohol-is-a-social-obligation/ Why we need company when we drink even they sit behind screen...? :)

Miku's notebook entry: Sep 12, 2010 Blame Confucius — or his blinkered latter-day disciples. The romantic notion, eagerly embraced by a deeply conservative government and bureaucracy, was that Confucian virtues ingrained in Japanese hearts would ensure loving, family-centered care, with little government involvement and expense. Shadows on that sunny tableau provoked petulant fretting that Japan was becoming an "obasute society." http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/fl20100912x3.html
