measurement

i was thinking of taking a technical break today. but i decided to postpone it to tomorrow cos i will have 1/2 day instead of the 1 night.

i wanted to visit SITEX but had little intention of buying camera so cancel the plan although i asked quite a handful of pp to see if they wanna go.

dont know y, i interested in finding some measurement

went to measure waist juz now for fun. OMG i up by 1/4 inch!
