A woman from New Zealand, Georgia Prince, has found herself in an unexpected predicament after receiving a note instructing her to stop parking her uniquely decorated car in the Te Aro suburb of Wellington. Prince, the owner of Brows by Prince, a local beauty salon, has adorned her vehicle with large plastic eyelashes, adding a touch of whimsy to her Beetle.
Upon returning to her car last Sunday, she was taken aback to find a message on her windscreen expressing displeasure with her car’s appearance, comparing it to a “car version of Nicki Minaj.” The note, allegedly from local residents, not only condemned her creative touch but also suggested that she find alternative parking options nearby.
Despite the criticism, Prince expressed surprise and disappointment at the note, stating that her car often brings joy to people, with many smiling, laughing, or taking photos beside it. She suspects that the note likely came from an individual rather than a collective complaint from the community. “I genuinely feel pity and sadness for who would write that. What a sad life you live,” she remarked.
Unfazed by the negative feedback, Prince has decided to embrace her car’s personality even more. She plans to laminate the note and display it inside her car, viewing it as a testament to her spirit and sense of fun. “Where is the fun and personality and spark in your life?” she mused, underscoring her belief in self-expression through her vehicle.
In sum, while Georgia Prince’s efforts to add cheer to her car have drawn criticism, she remains determined to continue her joyful expression and to spread positivity in her community.
