hi everybody I'm Paula and I am going to be drawing something for Halloween I'm
going to do a cute witch I thought that would be fun and I thought we could talk
about how Halloween got started because I was looking at some of the websites
concerning that because I don't know all there is to know about Halloween and you
know maybe you don't either but I went to history.com and I looked it up
because I thought you know we kinda have Halloween every year in this country and
what's really weird is I thought seriously I really did I thought that
they had Halloween in every single country and I found out they don't did
you know that I really I really did it I should have known it I know I really
should have but look at what some of this says no you probably know a lot of
this already but I thought it would be fun just to see what we all know about
it but it says here that it's an annual holiday while we know that right on
October 31st and the ancient origins I thought were
really really neat okay but the first thing that it says this is the sum up
that it gives you it says that it was created with the ancient Celtic festival
of Samhain when people would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off
ghosts I didn't know that at all did you know that I mean seriously
that sounds kind of weird to me in the 8th century Pope Gregory the 3rd
designated November 1st as a time to honor All Saints soon All Saints Day
incorporated some of the traditions of Samhain which apparently has turned into
what we have today like you know they have the trick-or-treating the carving
jack-o'-lanterns festive gatherings making costumes putting them on and
eating sweet treats I think that's really neat but I was looking on at some
of this like it was say and this is really weird tell me if you
know this now you probably like candy right I mean I like candy I seriously I
don't know anybody that doesn't but it says one quarter of all the candy sold
annually in the United States is purchased for Halloween
I mean think about that that is so neat I mean I know everybody goes
trick-or-treating not everybody but tell me did you go trick-or-treating this
year I mean I didn't but did you and what did you dress as if you did or did
you just go to help somebody else trick-or-treat
but I thought that was so weird I mean that's a lot of candy when you think
about it okay and when you go in the store after
Halloween they have so many good things to buy you know like special sales
because everybody's got to unload all that Halloween candy so that's kind of
cool that's a great time to buy candy I do that a lot you know pick up stuff
like that but I thought it was pretty cool but anyway okay
I'm not going to go through all this I'm just gonna hit like the highlights okay
because there is a lot up on this website about this but I thought it was
kind of neat because it said that it comes to America and came to the
colonies you know when like the pilgrims came over and everything why I guess in
New England became a big place for Halloween which is kind of cool and they
had all kinds of different customs like trick-or-treat which we still do today
right and that is from it says Irish and English traditions everybody started
dressing up this is in the 1800s even still that it became a big thing
here in the country and I think that is really cool let's see here okay
Halloween parties do you guys ever go to any Halloween parties I really don't I
can't think of any Halloween parties actually but you know what pumpkin spice
is a big thing and it sounds like that was even a thing a long time ago you
know the pumpkin and everything I mean I think of that like for Thanksgiving Day
no pumpkin pies but I guess it's a big thing for Halloween but it does say the
trick-or-treating was revived in 1920 and 1950 and it just took over in this
country and became so popular that everybody just did it every single year
so apparently they had some years where it was popular somewhere it wasn't some
people liked it some people didn't and candy corn which is weird because you
know we see candy corn a lot no you see that like it's stores
I guess that became a really big thing around this time so that's kind of cool
because I like candy corn I know some people hate it some people like it but
if it's good I like it and actually it tastes different they're not all the
same everybody that I talked to you always says all it all tastes the same
no it doesn't but what about black cats I mean do you ever think of that I guess
black cats is a big thing to do with Halloween's to Halloween's I can't even
talk but anyway they're saying that black cats were thought to be ghosts
which that is weird and that's kind of scary and I don't think there goes I
mean seriously they're like cats right and I don't believe the bad luck thing
either do you I think black cats are just adorable and I don't think they're
bad luck I think that's just a superstition seriously but anyway I was
just looking and I'm now I'm looking down here they're talking about ladders
and all that stuff and let's see here oh that looks like pretty much yet but
anyway the jack-o'-lanterns I guess that was a really big thing and it's still a
big thing today and that was supposed to ward off evil spirits you know because
it's like scary and you put it on in your front porch but that doesn't really
make any sense when you think about it because why would you have to do that
but I don't know I guess that was just their thing okay but anyway
I think Halloween is kind of neat just because I think things that are kind of
I don't know a little spooky or neat I kind of like that but I drew a witch
because I wanted to see if I could make her like a cute little chibi and as you
can tell you know I didn't know what I was doing with the hair I was just like
okay I want to use an ocean color because everybody knows witches have
ocean color hair right no that's silly I know but anyway I just thought it was a
cute collar and I gave her the purple eyes and a pink shirt which you know she
doesn't exactly match perfectly but that's okay so hopefully she looks cute
and as you can see you know I'm trying my best to shade but I'm still learning
okay so I know a lot of you guys keep saying hey I'm still learning art but
yeah so am i oh my gosh you know I hadn't done this for so long so for me
this whole art thing is just brand new but getting back to Halloween did you do
anything special in your school this year I know when I was in school
especially I think of my gues grade school and junior high I don't remember
it so much in high school but I remember them having special Halloween days where
we all dressed up in our costumes that we went like marching through town which
I don't know is a silly I guess it sounds kind of silly right but we just
took a walk and of course there were a lot of us so I'm sure it was a funny
sight you know back then but hey I was a kid I thought it was great okay so did
you do something like that I mean what did you do I remember having some
special cupcakes I really remember that I don't know how I remember it probably
because I was hungry I don't know but I remember orange and black cupcakes yeah
wonder if the black colored my mouth probably not and you know I probably
didn't care but anyway did you do anything special and did you dress up I
really want to know what you dressed up as I know I was talking to some of you
guys and you said you were helping your little brothers and sisters go and
things like that and I always liked that time of year I know when I was like in
my high school years I used to go with my little cousins and stuff I always
liked that and I used to babysit too so you know I
always had somebody younger around and it was always kind of fun and I know
some of you probably handed out candy I don't know what it's like where you live
I mean we live out in the country so I really haven't had anybody come out here
but you know when you're in town it can be pretty busy of a night seriously but
some of you guys said you already had it and I know you know maybe early I don't
know why they do that I guess I always figured they're gonna do it on one night
but I guess they do at different times which is fine you know but I thought I
think it's kind of fun I kind of miss it you know because it would be fun to do
it sometime just just to be silly but you know I'm too old for that way too
old way what in Miami no Paula blocks art there's a contest right now called
masquerade ball but it looks like a fun one and I'm looking at all the entries
and everything I think they're really cute but anyway guys make sure you join
my amino and have fun I hope you have a fun Halloween and I'll talk to you later
bye

25 YEARS OF HISTORY - FIRST YELLOW HONDA NSX - Duration: 18:41.
It's pre-classic, I think classic is only at 30th but it's car which from the specs that it has
I look at it today and it is in the conditions that I bought 25 years ago
even after going through for alot of situations which I placed it on NSX club of Europe
I had some conditions which didn't changed it's specs at all, only a security improvement
street legal, it was only a reinforcement which at the moment it was already removed again to stay original
because after 25 years I decreed a NO of the car in the race tracks
and at this moment it is exactly as I bought it 25 years ago
I'm and Electral Engeneer and back in the time I was a trainee in the US
and I created certain conditions in advance that is the first touch screens that is all we have today
I brought it to Portugal which means that I had to create a company which was an innovation in the country
and somehow I had to devide myself between Porto, Lisbon and Algarve to cover the whole country and also Spain
and We were advised somehow to purchase cars to the company
at the time I also had a company in Luxemburg and bought a red Lamborghini Diablo
I stayed with it for a while but it was a scandle, my neighbors started thinking that I was envolved with drugs
they don't even imagine the number of hours that I worked to achieve that
and for a new car my partners chose Mercedes
they went to Mercedes and at the time, I don't know if it is still like that but
You had to buy the chassis and then buy piece by piece to assembly the car
fot them to have the Mercedes I had a certain budged, we're talking about 91' 92'
at the time I had the first magazine that showed the NSX
September 89', I see the NSX for the first time
I started reading about it and kept tracking of the concept development
and I loved the lines of the car, nothing like a Mercedes
at that time Ayrton Senna list his red NSX to sell
It was in Sintra, I went there with my wife to see the car
I opened the car, I looked and it was missing a lot of things which would come if I buy a new one
there was some holes in the place of the buttons, the AC was manual instead of automatic
the direction was direct, it doesn't had what this one have which is
if you are stopped and turn a litle it turns a lot, it changes the course based on the speed you are driving it
if I got at 200km/h I can move the wheel that is drivable
and was missing a lot of tech things and at the time there was the 348
I saw the yellow and I felt in love with the yellow, I said "I want something different"
so I'll get one of this in yellow. It beguns a war that they only had it with the driving wheel on the right
and was an yellow that they wanted which was released in Japan
and only at the Japanese marked and it was not a plausible option because I didn't wanted the wheel on the right side
and it started to treat the situation of acquiring or not an yellow Honda NSX with the driving wheel on the left
there was no chance, they only had it Red, Black or Grey
of course was a war with Honda Motor and I threatened them "if you don't sell it to me I'll buy a Ferrari right now"
and they didn't wanted to lose the deal and they started making calls in front of me to see the possibilities
the only chance that I had was in a conversation that I had they said in Europe it won't be any yellow NSX
then I said "so what about Ayrton Senna?"
they said Ayrton Senna doesn't have any yellow car and I said "but his helmet is yellow"
I was looking for something yellow and was the only thing that came in my mind
to do that it has to remove a car from production because they were hand crafted daily
and it has to be imported from there, it was the only way, zero conditions
more expensive, but I was not worried about the price, I just wanted the Yellow NSX
so was made a request to be aproved or not
a car which the difference was the color just like the helmet of Ayrton Senna with the same exatly yellow
I already had a helmet that was a replic and they did a great job, the color is just the same
they car got an unique color code, was the first with that color
this color code was only manufactured again in 98' I verified on NSX prime
and in 98' there was a lot of requests in the US and the started producing cars with this color since then
it was the first one, which everywhere I go people recognizes me and always knew where I was because it was different
I've already had saw a Grey and a Red one before and that was the story of how I acquired this car
Honda contacted me because they were interest having pilots of various countries
there was a anual program from NSX Club which was a competiotion with various pilots with various nationalities
so we take the car to the circuits which were pre-scheduled for an year with dates and then compete
of course, there was three types of cars on the track
so this car won a LeMans, not mine but red ones that the Japanese brought
a lot of people don't know but it won a LeMans and there was people competing Modified, Standart and Prototype
so Mugen was a preparer which appeared with alot of modifications to the cars
but I never entered on it because my idea was always enjoy the car not in a competition mode
because I have an structure of 110kg, I never entered in karts because I had no chance of wining anything
and then I started to drive the car to enjoy and was the car that teached me to compete
it's a car that even if you screw up it fixes it, if was another car I may not have the same luck
but I learned to enjoy the tracks with this car so much so that I'm a member of a group of friends which is TRS
that is dedicated to prepare the cars to have better performance and has an great spirit
when they go to reaces which are not really a reace becaus they go to the race for fun not to compete
and it makes me very secure of putting this car on the racing track
these days as I said, after it's 25th birthday I dedicated it only for expositions when I am invited
I've had the car in the garage now for three months beucase it was overexposed
and after it's 25th birthday in june, everyone stopped seeing the car
because I said I'll mantain only for expositions and I show up only in some meetins when necessary because it also won't be totally stopped
now it's for mantain also because with certain age we can't still doing crazy things because we can breake something
it was the cheapest car that I had until today, changed the spark plugs at 100k, it has 110k
when I bought it, because of the companies that, problems that I had to solve
sometimes I was in Porto and receive a call to go to Algarve and back to Porto again
and in the first year I made 52k km, the maintance was only oil and filters
I didn't had any kind of problem, also it's a car made of alluminium
not only that, it was the first car ever made in alluminum, only a few years later that Ferrari developed that
but for it's weight and it's power at the time it was knowed for beat a lot of cars from it's category
this at the curves is insane, one of the best things that the car has is it's stability, it's awesome
the sensations is based as the owner wakes up, it depends how you push for it it is what it gives
I bought this car in 92' to collect in 93' in my birthday
of course I kept up with Formula 1 when it was really good
it's interesting that if you look at the suit that I had it was exactly like Senna's
the gloves, the shoes, I only didn't had the sposors patches but at this moment I have
I placed all the sponsors that he had and now I have a copy of his suit which I already used for racing
not for show-off but if I hade any accinent it won't burn, the suit has a lot of components that protects you
The NSX it's a special car why? If I compare with the Lamborghini
It has nothing like the Lamborghini, you leave the Lmborghini with your hearth in your throath
the NSX it's a car that follows exactly what you want, so as my wife drove it for a long time
the only thing that women don't remember it's how large the car is and sometimes they scratch the weels
but it's a car that a women can drive with no problems because even in low rotations it is very soft
Honda contacted me also to ask for my car to the new NSX presentation
for 1 month at Estoril, they did the world presentation and my car was chosen
there is a lot of photos in many magazines because of that event
If I don't had this one, with the same conditions I was capable of purchase the new one
but this one gives you another feelings in the racing track still
the new one is... It can fix everything that you do wrong
even if I go overspeeded it does some crazy things that you won't lose control of it
the feeling is "ok, I accelerate and everything is safe"
this one no, on this one you need to be careful
the question of driving one or another, I like more mine
I think that this is a timeless car...
not only ofr it's value, these days if we go check the prices of those cars
it's crazy, people ask 75k, 100k why? It has been less and less
and it's an Icon, it was build to beat every car at the time and it made it
in this car was placed every idea, every project that they had back in the days, all the tech they had
people don't know but this is a car with multiple ECU, it has a black box, if anything fail you can verify what failed
it has something that I can't find in any car, even the new NSX, which is the visibility
when you look around, you see everything, if you look at the cockpit
all around it's the cockpit of the F-16
me as a pilot, I looked and said "I need to have visibility"
for example when you drive a GT-R it's so little visibility
for example it's a great car for trips because if you go for a trip with it you can see everything, you see the road right in front of you, you see everything
it is absolutely panoramic and in the race tracks it makes the difference, you have to see everything
last time I left Belgium, the only reason I did not drive straight away to here was because of my wife
because she was getting crazy, she started imagine things and scream with me
and when I left the car, I did N hours, I only leave to fill up the tank and I feel great
I mean ergonomically will be hard exist a car like this which you can do everything you want
trips, races, drive slowly, go here and there
and when you drive the car, I'm exibicionist but when I drive the car everyone looks
I never used the horn, everyone goes further in any speed I go because is a very reflect color
for me, one of the best color in a car because if you are visible on the road the possibility of a disaster is smaller
I never crashed the car, I don't even know the consequences of crashing this car
and since it's made of alluminum, very hard which makes the car don't have any dint
there is no way of someone to lean against and smash the car like the newer ones, this is so much harder
and with 1250kg with it's power it still outperform some newer cars from the same category
but now the question of selling the car, I don't think so...
