1:18 AM and we felt the earthquake here in Marikina! I was praying that time when I felt my bed shaking and saw my globe on top of my cabinet also moving. And there I went to my parents' room and saw the antenna of their TV also moving. CONFIRMED, there's an earthquake. Scary. Then after few seconds, I think for more than 40 seconds, we tuned in to the news via radio and the reporters were already talking about the incident and they guessed it's a 3-4 magnitude. And said that according to Phivolcs, the earthquake's scope was as wide as it was felt also in Baguio and Davao.
