If you´ve never experienced an earthquake, you´ll probably find it to be unnerving, that is, once you realize what´s happened. While quake tremors only last seconds, this can be a disorienting period of time. So, if you live with others or are at work with co-workers, round everyone up into a central location.
It´s easier if you have a prearranged meeting spot ahead of time, and you might consider conducting a periodic "drill" -- just like a fire drill. Aftershocks normally follow within minutes, although it could be longer. You might keep housemates/workmates together for 15 minutes in preparation before dispersing.
