012345 km

was turning on my car engine when i discovered the odometer reading to be 012345 km. i found the discovery to be rather interesting and blurted out to tere and yuli about it (since they were in the car).

yuli wanted me to take a photo of it. first, i thought she must have found in interesting as well. then she continued to relate that it would bring good luck if i was to take photos of consecutive number (000123, 001234) and ending numbers (eg. 9999, 99999) of the odometer reading. i have never heard of such beliefs but there is no harm in taking photos right?

since the apartment had underground car park, the first photo turned out dark (top-left). later, i stopped by the roadside to take better shots with natural sunlight. not too shabby considering it is taken by a handphone camera.
