Tremors in Bangalore !!!

Yesterday, we felt tremors in office... I did not realize it immediately. Couple of my colleagues told me so and after that was able to feel the steady vibrartions.... Was stunned... Earthquake in Bangalore ?????????? Oh My God !!! Immediately went to rediff.com, ndtv.com and checked if any news was there about it... There was no news....

They were like steady tremors..continuous. I did not know how to react.. and the best part is no one seemed to be bothered.. Everyone was like, Can u feel the vibrartions ??? and then nothing... they went back to their usual routine.. For a second, got little scared. And then thought, what the hell !!! If an earthquake was intended to strike bangalore, there is nothing I could do about it. Its all fate.. Thinking so, got busy with work.. and kinda forgot about it...

Later I came to know that those tremors were not because of an eathquake. Infact the road infront of my office is being completely relaid and a fresh coat of asphalt was being applied.. I feel like a complete fool now.. :D (in my defence, I have never experienced an earthquake/tremors).

Same thing has happened with me. Was in college and the whole class was feeling the vibrations and was wondering what the hell is happening...thankfully since colleges are open spaces and not airconditioned prisons, we could hear the noise too. Soon we put two and two together and continued exploring the intricacies of the income tax act :D
