Just felt quite a bit of shaking in the 5th floor teachers' room here in Jakarta Barat. Did you guys feel it?
 
Yep I did. I was driving, car was shaking quite a bit at the traffic light, I thought a truck had driven by. I looked at the lights posts but couldn't notice any movement.

Then my MIL called telling me the whole house shook a fair bit. She had to hold the TV down from falling over.

Drove passed Unilever office, everyone was evacuated outside. Now at my son's school and they also had an evacuation.

I was told it was 6.4 earthquake.
 
i feel the earth move... (no, not going to sing) ... and we thought it was because of the building renovation. so we just laughed about it, saying' for a moment I thought we are having earthquake"
then everybody says the same... and someone said, "run run .. earthquake.. out out out..."
 
My house shock as well. A few seconds then stopped and a second or so again stopped.
 
I felt it on the ground floor at my school. At first I thought it was the bench(it is old) about to break. Then I saw the staff come out with the students who arrived early. come out of the building.
 
My husband felt it in Kebayoran.

Somewhat later, I got a "possible tsunami alert" for Hawaii due to the big quake off the coast of Alaska. Lucky, it seems no tsunamis were generated.
 
it was felt in Ciamis by everyone in the wife's office..... except me
 
We just felt an aftershock a couple minutes ago... Kinda unnerving.
 
And again today (Friday) a small quake (5.2 SR says BMKG info but felt much smaller than Wednesday's 5.2 SR). Maybe wouldn't have even noticed otherwise, but I was at my work desk and then came that small left-right movement. This in Jatinegara, JKT
 
What are the odds, I was once again in my car at a traffic light when I felt it.
 
Well Indonesia and macetttt... Not any miracle, I guess? :D

During the first one I was actually driving back tot he office from lunch, didn't feel a thing. Arrived at the office to find the entire building outside making us wonder what the hell was going on haha
