2007-08-28 [Cia_mar]: well Jitters i doubt that it is the end of the world as we know it, but i understand your concern being alone at a time like this
stay safe!
huggles

2007-08-28 [Linderel]: [Melocrie]: Sure, as long as you still only have three all is well. :3

2007-08-29 [Simply_Jen]: Jitters, keep safe. I was alone when we had a small earthquake last year and I had a hard time not freaking out. I'm glad you are safe from the fires.

2007-08-29 [Jitter]: Thanks :)

Rainbow, the colour version is just love! <3

About the earthquake, turned out to be 4,8 richter on the island right opposite this town so it's natural we shook a bit. [Rochala] was trying to convince me I imagined it but then I saw it on the news and I was like "HA!". They said there's no reason to be worrying about it since it wasn't quite big. I can safely assume that if it hadn't been for the fires though people would be freaking out over it... *sigh* :P

2007-08-29 [Cia_mar]: well a 4.8 is not that big... i used to live in california and most people did not blink over something unless it was at least 6.0....lol

2007-08-29 [Linderel]: It's all very relative. In Finland, there are no earthquakes, so if I went somewhere and experienced even small tremors by your scale, I'd be "o___O omgwtfbbq"
It's a question of what you're used to.

2007-08-29 [Jitter]: hehe, I can't help thinking it would be breaking news xD

2007-08-29 [Cia_mar]: too true

2007-08-29 [Apus]: YAY APPLE TREE!!! ^_^"

2007-08-29 [The Monochrome Rainbow]: *knock on wood* (guess i'm in the right place for that, surrounded by trees) never been through an earthquake, thankfully, i do not live in a place prone to them, so yeah, i would have freaked at even the tiniest tremor myself.

2007-09-07 [Linderel]: Hmmm. The flow of entries has come to a stop :o

2007-09-07 [The Monochrome Rainbow]: seems like. we got a more than a month till the deadline too.

2007-09-07 [Linderel]: More advertising is in order, perhaps.

2007-09-07 [The Monochrome Rainbow]: seems like.

2007-09-07 [Raven_wolf]: I've a second entry, it needs a little croping and such before I can enter it

2007-09-09 [Cia_mar]: well we can all post in our diaries! and link the contest there for publicity!

2007-09-09 [The Monochrome Rainbow]: publicity is nice.

2007-09-10 [Linderel]: Yay, we hit the 30 mark! Made another page now. :3

2007-09-10 [~Lady Morgana~]: Awesome :D

2007-10-08 [Janouk]: Nice contest!!
