    jazlynnyee Fantabulous!!!

    For this Chinese woman who suffers from a condition called artificial urticaria, her skin has served as a notebook for all the years of her life.

    This strange medical anomaly has no ill effects, but most agree that it is very weird.

    Huang Xiangji is a 50-year-old woman from Chengdu who uses her skin like writing paper.

    Huang claims that when she writes a word on her skin by using her fingernail, the letters protrude from her skin a moment later.

    "I used my body as a notebook for years," says Huang.

    Even as a child, she was able to do this and she would often create shopping lists on her arm before going out to the stores. (That's one list you can't misplace!)

    I believe it fade in time, since she said, she been doing it all her life...

    She can cheat during exam!!!
    I wish I had that ability and I don't think it's disgusting at all, rather a work of art from that picture perspective...
