Spoke with my friend who lives directly in Paris... she is fine. I'm so glad.

This is an utter mess. Today feels very strange.

For the persons who are asking if I'm all right : yes. Absolutely scared but all right. Thank for having asked.
For those who are safe I am very glad. My heart goes out to everyone in France tonight. I am praying for everyone's safety.

Bomb attacks and shooting in Paris.
I demand good news. Every kind of good news. And hope all of this will stop as soon as possible but it's already awful with too many deaths.

I've been out and about all day, I had no idea! I'm glad to here you are OK, bombing are NEVER EVER good  >:(, I've been through some bomb scares at my school, never want to deal with it again!

Good news... Good news...
I got free soup at school today and am going out for my friend's 21st birthday, so that should be fun!  :))

It finally stopped raining here, so I was grateful to stretch my poor back with a brief walk in the sun.  Also there were wonderful pictures on Facebook, including a huge-looking trdelnik that boggled my mind.  :D  The beignet has a big brother! :o

I think the only forumites we currently have in Japan are Auleliel and myself and we are both quite far away from the earthquake (it didn't even wake me up, it was that far away). Although it was fairly big I don't think there was much damage (at least according to the news site I use), Japan is very prepared for earthquakes after all.
I didn't even know there was an earthquake until I read this thread today. I get earthquake alerts when there is an earthquake near me, but I didn't get any alerts for this one.

My thoughts and prayers go out to those in France.

Woke up to the horrible news from France. I'm glad that everyone I know from Paris seems to be safe.

I wonder if they chose Friday the 13th deliberately for some perverted reason.

I must admit, I caught myself wondering something similar.

It isn't particularly hard. It's good to know how to get the thing rolling so you don't have to pay people to teach you the basics though.
