Am I drunk or was that an earthquake?

Last night sitting in front of the TV I started to feel dizzy like my whole body was swaying back and forth. Justin called from the dinning room "do you feel that? It's an earthquake." He thought he was just going a bit loopy until we saw the curtains swaying and the flowers swaying with us. Literally the building swayed back and forth for a good 30 or 40 seconds. Swaying is the only word you can use to describe it. There was no shaking or rattling. Everything just swayed. Turns out there was a 5.4 magnitude earthquake in the Pacific Ocean East of Luzon. The quake was felt in all of Metro Manila. You can read more details about the quake here. Typhoons and earthquakes...crazy!
