I always lot to plan a fun-filled saturday of adventures and wonderful sight-seeing in the crazy but can be beautiful city of New York.  I love grabbing my metro, my nap-sack filled with digital awesomeness including my (video cam, mp3 player, iPod, extra battery and other small cool gadgets) and my essentials (notebook or blank sheet of papers, pen, and pencils), and room space to throw any cool things or flyers I may discover on my visit to the unknown.  But this saturday was a resting time for me.  I couldn’t decide on really where to go, and by the time I figured where I might go, the bed I was laying in seemed to have put it on me and gone i was from the world in a lovely confused state of sleep with many crazy dreams to fill my already crazy mind to awake much too late to go anywhere.  Thanks bed, you just know how to ruin a guy’s lovely Saturday adventures.

note to self: “STAY AWAY FROM MY BED“…it’s crazy and will eat you alive…literally. smh

What is your Saturdays usually like?  Do you enjoy going on random adventures?

Quick Change the Channel: Austin Powers GOLDMEMBER is ON

I actually watched TV today…crazy right?  You must think, hey ummm Richardo, I don’t get it, I watch TV all the time.  I reply by saying kindly, but I don’t ( in a crazy menacing laughter).  My TV time only consist of watching wrestling or wrestling re-runs, and watching HBO series on Sundays, in which the new seasons for are coming up.  I am so excited I can’t help myself.  But before I mention of the series I watch on HBO, in which I can’t wait to do, let me just mention on what I watched on TV.

As I quickly flipped through the channels, everything boring, I remembered my old trick when I use to watch TV, just go to STARZ, they always have a funny or dumb movie to fill your time.  So I was on Animal Planet, the I hit VH1, then I was like ‘quick change the channel” and jumped to channel 345 (simply to remember STARZ on cablevision) and BAM, there is was Austin Powers: Goldmember.  I was in heaven, it had just started, so I sat my butt down to watch and guess what I had me a great time.  I laughed so hard (I thank you ” lol Austin powers joke”) and remember how great this movie was.  It had so many stars, Tom Cruise, Britney Spears, John Travolta, plus the films stars Mike Myers, Beyoncé and others.  Anyways best time I spent watching television in a long while.

Anyways I later came to figure out and remember that movie was already on Netflix, I could have watched it anytime.  But as much as that was a known fact, I probably wouldn’t have clicked on the movie to watch is via I seen this movie about a million times, always fun though.

Whoa, I actually really went off on that movie didn’t I? Well here are my HBO series I love and can’t wait for starting this June into the summer: True Blood, Hung, Entourage, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and How to Make It in America.  I simply can’t wait.  My Sundays are soon to be live again.

Do you have any HBO series you watch?  Are you a fan of True Blood or Entourage?

My Ultimate Goal of 2011: Canon T3i

Rik1 Comment

Self Portrait III

I have made it official.  My ultimate goal of 2011 is to purchase the Canon T3i.  Though it may be not as powerful or great as the Canon 7D or the infamous Canon 5D Mark II, I am determined to get this mid-level camera.  I am a uber-fan of Canon, though i been telling myself to go the Nikon way as most people first pick mostly is a Canon, but I am still thinking about it.  Since I am leaving the realm of just full on photography and taking my well architect skills to a new height with videos and becoming a force to me reckoned with in multimedia and technology for New York.  The world should praise me as I work my hardest to get this camera.

Though it’s only $899.99 say at B&H Photo and Video or at Adorama, you still got to count in taxes, lenses, insurance (can’t go no where without that big boy), I am still looking at $1300 of the back basic.  With that, that’s really all I need for the skills don’t come with the camera, you bring your talents and skills to the camera and the works you produce.

So i am already on board with my first MAC purchase in March 2011, and my Pro Tools purchase of September 2010, I am just taking it step by step to be if not the number 1 Creative (all around) Multimedia Professional in New York, but one of the greatest in the long run.

Canon T3i (with the pull out screen) lol I am so coming for you.  The Canon T2i is also awesome, but I need a major upgrade from my Canon Rebel and taking my business to YouTube, Vimeo, iTunes, your Local Film Festival right into your living room subscription service such as Netflix or Amazon.

Richardo is on his way…now it’s time to work his butt off and gain more clients, produce more high quality projects and network the HELL OUT of the world.

I have 3 great projects debuting this summer, including a debut hip-hop album, a poetry and art book, and a DJ groove 3 track music record, oh yea not to mention hopefully short-film series based on my YouTube weekly series “The Real Life with Richardo”

Do you have an ultimate goal of 2011?  is there any awesome gadget coming out this year you are looking forward to getting?
