NZ Earthquake!!

I just had the scariest moment of my life at 4.30am this morning. There was a shallow, violent earthquake that hit my city and absolutely threw all out stuff in the house everywhere. It was so frightening, it felt as though the house was going to collapse on us I was screaming and and I couldn't get to the doorway because glass was everywhere! I'll put some photos up soon but here is a site with pictures of the damage. Christchurch earthquake's destruction - National - NZ Herald Pictures

State of emergency has been declared, we could be out of water very quickly. It was 7.1 in magnitude. Has anyone else experienced such a huge earthquake?
