Strong quake kills at least 5, injures dozens in northern Philippines

It was awful to experience, even from as far away as Manila.

I live on the 21st floor and my building was creaking and groaning. It was my first earthquake so I really thought that I was done for. Sent out some texts telling people that I loved them, then braced for the worst.

My heart goes out to all of those people who lost their lives, and to their families.
