To be honest, I never knew about the 5.9 (or 6.2) magnitude earthquake that occurred at past 1 am today. I had my usual morning trip to the clinic at past 6 am and it was only then that I learned from the nurse that there was an earthquake. Wow, I thank God I lived to hear the news, considering that this was a stronger earthquake than that of the July 16, 1991 quake that was reported to have a more devastating effect. Those working on night shift and the night owls who were still awake felt it. So this one occurred while I was sleeping. Whew! Maybe it was better that way than being awakened by the shaking as I am on the 3rd floor. Good Lord! The 1991 quake at only a magnitude of 4.0 left me feeling a bit dizzy already, what more this one?

It's good that the earthquake didn't affect you too much. Those who felt the actual intensity of it must have been so scared considering what happened to Japan.
