We are STILL okay :)

Just in case you are watching the news and are worried about the big aftershock in Ibaraki, yes, it was Japanese level 5 -, or M6.1 here. But we are STILL okay!

Nothing fell down. But I hope adrenalin is good for us because this time I had a massive surge of adrenalin. In English this is called the "fight or flight" response. It means we fight or escape. I can't find the Japanese words for this, but here is a link about it in Japanese. 

By the way, please don't panic about the spinach news either. Some spinach from NORTH Ibaraki, just near Fukushima tested positive for LOW levels of radiation. The vegetables in Tsukuba are okay.

To be really honest, I'm more worried about agricultural chemicals that are sprayed on most vegetables all around the world :)

Please, let's try to be calm and use commonsense. The people in the disaster areas are doing their best to live every day. In other areas we shouldn't run around like chickens with our heads cut off. 狂ったように
