Thank you for sharing your personal expediences with us. The only quake I was awake for felt like pudding wobbling beneath me, and lasted around 15 seconds and measured 3.5. Extremely watery earth with 6" horizontal motion. No sound beyond that of car alarms.
Quakes really aren't that bad as long as you're not in (or on) the wrong structure. The way the concrete fell apart from what I saw in Turkey, someone put profits over people. I said on because my friend was on top of a beam getting ready to disconnect the crane cable when he saw a landslide. He noticed it was moving towards us and what it was. He held on tight and rode that one out, just under a 5.
