Getting Ready for 2010

So I realize that it's not even Christmas yet, but I came across a list of H&M's 25 best tips for a great 2010 in their winter issue of the H&M magazine and thought I'd share the list with all of you :)

9. Send postcards.
10. "Listen to loud music and let your hair down." -Pixie Lott, Singer

13. Record the sound of the summer and play it on your iPod in the dark months.

22. Think harder. No, harder than that!
23. If nobody buys you flowers - buy them for yourself.
