Or was it just me thinking that there was some shaking in my place. i felt like there was a bit of shake in my chair while i am sitting in front of my computer. i don't know if i was not just feeling well. just a minute ago i felt like a small shake. I am from philippines, in manila city. I wonder if other filipinos in my city felt this. it lasted less than a minute. So for those in manila also, was there an earth quake awhile ago.

The Philippines is on the ring of fire. Sometimes it's normal to feel a shake or two because of this or to have a volcano eruption.

It does sound like an earthquake may have hit your country. I am glad that you are safe and that there wasn't a lot of damage at your home. I would suggest that you watch the news to see if they mention it. I hope that you do not have any major aftershocks.

I am not sure if there was or not, I am not in the Phillippines, I am in the USA. However, it could have been an equilibrium thing with you. If you have a headache or have been sitting long hours in front of the pc it could be that you just felt a bit nauseous and dizzy for a moment.
Either way I hope all is well now!

As you described, it very likely to be a magnitude. I hope everything is ok.
