Three links!

1. FUCKING FUNNY LETTER Confirm you laugh until die. It's similar to this

2. Ringo is selling her dresses! Actually I don't know why I'm posting this also because I really want some of her dresses there and if you guys bid too high I'm gonna parsimoniously back off! Shit should I take off the link it's not too late ...

(You know you want to buy this and this and this for me. Thanks la.)

3. To encourage me to read more, I've set a target for myself and made it a 69 Books Project thing! Basically I'm going to read 69 books in one year and everytime I finish one I will write a short review of it in that blog. If you've read the books I've read before please comment! Or suggest some books to me! I feel very lonely without comments on that blog.

Okay that's all for today I'm updating tomorrow with photos!

PS - Hahahah funny convo between me and Ringo

Her: So are you doing the article too?
Me: No! They are only looking for Malaysian women above 21 and I am obviously Sri Lankan...
Her: Oh really I always thought you acted quite Malaysian.

HAHAHAHA. Laugh la.
