We felt it in San Diego, but it wasn't much. From this far away it was just a weird rolling sensation.

ahh I didnt feel it cuz im in Nor Cal but if I was already started at my college, UC Riverside, then I woulda felt it because I hear that Chino Hills is pretty close to Riverside.
Also I learned that our residential housing asso. supplies everyone with a backpack that has 3 days worth of food and water and also has a first aid kit in it; they give that to us on move-in day I think. That could be a useful thing to have, I wonder if other schools do that.
 
Be prepared! It may be time....^_^v

I have never heard of this before, I think it is wonderful. I hope you add some personal touches to your pack such as emergency numbers, some change for payphones in case the cell phones are down, a little cash in-case you need to take a bus home in an emergency, medical/allergy information, emergency contact information, a set of sweats and socks and a pair of walking shoes, plus extra food and water.

Good luck on your new school and classes. What will you be studying so far from home?Smile
