Earthquake!

So, apparently there was a pretty big earthquake last night that hit around midnight off the coast of Java near Jakarta. My roommate said she was nearly knocked off her bed, but me...I didn't feel it. I woke up this morning and she told me I should probably notify people back home that I was alive and well because they will probably see it on the news. Wish I had a cooler story like I had to hide underneath something, but no. While the rest of the country was scrambling for shelter I was tucked into my bed not realizing the earth was shaking:) Everyone is fine, we haven't heard of any damage anywhere. There are probably more on the way, maybe I will be awake for those:)
In other news: my room is painted, thanks to my amazing Jaga. I got to try brocculi juice yesterday and it was quite tasty. My bites are healing up quite nicely, and I think I have gotten used to the time difference without a lot of jet lag symptoms. Today we are doing some more training and then hanging out at Ciwalk, an outdoor shopping mall with giant paper mache disney characters hanging off the signs...pictures will follow:)
Hope you all are doing well! I love getting your comments:)
