I'm sure that no one felt this but I'm sure most of us who work on tall buildings in McKinley Hill must have felt it. At around 6:49pm on March 21 while I was doing my work, I felt something weird. I felt the building move. I thought it was a joke at first or an airliner flying by on top of the building. It was then a second shock shook the building again. This time, I knew it was real and everyone at the office grew nervous. It then stopped, and everyone started to joke about it just to stay calm.

I decided that I have to leave the office in the event that a real earthquake occurs. I felt dizzy after that and my stomach started to feel funny. It felt like I wanted to throw up. I have to admit that I was a bit nervous using the lift of the building. I thought something bad was going to happened. In the end, nothing did and I was grateful for that. I have seen movies on earthquakes and shocks but it was a nerve racking experience. Ever since, the earthquake and tsunami disaster in Japan; I have been alert. Since, I am living in the Philippines; we are at the Pacific Ring of Fire where tsunami's and earthquakes are more likely to occur.

At the movies, we may be thrilled by the special effects but experiencing that light shock really got to me since I am working on the 16th floor which is the highest floor in the building. I did learn something from this experience. If something does happen, I'll make sure that I duck under the table.
