Magnitude-6.0 quake rocks Zambales

I dreamt of experiencing an earthquake while sleeping on my bed. According to my dream, I refused to get out of bed and just slept it through while feeling a little dizzy from the rocking.

As I turn to the internet to check my email upon waking up at around 10:30 AM, news about a magnitude-6.0 quake hitting the metro were all over.

So it wasn’t a dream at all.

Here’s the DOST bulletin regarding the said earthquake:
