The wonders of nail polish remover!!!

Just this morning i was slowly and painstakingly scraping the remnants of past road-tax stickers off my windscreen. And what pain it is! I really hate scraping them off fearing that if i scratch it too hard will leave mark on my cheap and utterly useless window tint.

Then, my mom came to me and said, "Ah boy...why not use nail polish remover?". And she went to get the nail polish remover and some cottons. I was skeptical at first thinking, "Nail polish remover? Pfft..". Man, was i wrong!
With just a dab of the polish remover onto the cotton and i managed to literally wipe of the sticky remnants almost effortlessly!!! And now, the windscreen on WiWi now looks much much much more tidy without the reminders of where the past road-tax stickers used to be.

And for this current sticker, my sister asked me to go buy the road-tax sticker..sticker to avoid repeating the same after use trails like the previous ones. But before i bought anything, somehow the clogs in her head started spinning and used the plastic looking food wrapper and just paste it on the windscreen with the road-tax in it. Genius!! (^.^) b

The simple and inconspicuous looking nail polish remover has saved up a lot of my time! Hell, it can remove colours on your nails, why not some sticker remnants?! LOL!!! So, i've come to a new Josh Lui Top Tip of the Week; Nail Polish Remover: the WD40 of the beauty world!

Love,

WiWi's new shoes

Let's see...the day before yesterday, my sis was driving back from her Japanese tuition quite late and was kinda "speedy" to get home. But some lamers left a brick in the middle of the road out of nowhere! And thinking that it was a cookie box, decided to just run over it instead of swerving ...until it was too late. The impact of running a car at 80km/h over a effing brick bent the front left rims. I think she came home quite worried that i was gonna murder her but it wasn't her fault so i just let it slide.

Yesterday, we woke up kinda early to go look for a tyre shop to see if they can still save the poor thing but was told that the rim had to be reworked. And i thought, might as well get a new set of rim. And so off we go!! Hugo told me that there was a shop in Batu Gajah that was doing promotions and that i should head on there to have a look. My Lord! i've never seen a tyre shop with so much rims on display!!! It was like a sports rim haven! But i'm sure all you city people have seen more but not this Ipoh boy! wahahaha!!

Well, the funny thing is..i wanted a rim with a deep offset but my sister just came in, took a quick look, pointed at one set of rim and said, "That one".



She turned and went back outside to sit in a corner and continue her hand phone game. Talk about being point of authority!!! Yeah, so i went ahead with her choice and after an hour or two, WiWi's got a new shoe!!!! hmm...Sue Ann's birthday but WiWi's got the present?? LOL!!

To be honest, i have been looking around for a new set of rims for quite sometime now and now that we got that off the list, i shall be looking for some nice suspension setups. Why? Cos i'm planning on how to mod WiWi into a lorry......any ideas, anyone??? LOL!!
