Hoodrat Wasted

As you all know, this past weekend was Halloween Weekend & today is actually Halloween. *blank stare* Of course you guys know....forgive me. I am still hungover. Yes....I drank the devil juice & got loose. *puts head down in shame*

inebriated & still badder than most.

Last week, my friend Patrice informed me that her cousin would be hosting some kinda masquerade/costume/halloween/hoodrat gathering/birthday party & asked if I'd want to attend. I promptly replied YES CHILE!! & ran off to various locations to begin the process of styling a deliciously envy-worthy costume. So Friday night comes & by this time I have recruited Jazz, my Partner In Crime/Eating Partner/Fattest Skinny Chick I Know/Bestie/Little Sister/Niece....yea, she's all that. Really. Lmao. So me, Jazz [@CocoaAllure], Patrice & her brother get to the venue which happened to be a.....BANQUET HALL.....and then to make matters worse I hear "Wifey" - Next playing. I don't even know if this event even had a DJ, for all I fuckn know, somebody's uncle was playing a Mix CD on his 1999 circa BoomBox. I felt like I was set off Soul Food 2. I can't. I simply can NOT.

Beyonce On Top

So as I'm pulling an all-nighter filming & editing videos, I stumble across this little gem....Beyonce's teaser for her next video which is for "Love On Top." It kinda has like this 80s/New Edition vibe to it but it works. And I must say, Bey is looking fucking boughettoly GORG with her lil captain's hat thingy I'm sure she fought tooth & nail with Ms. West over & her lil hi-top sneaks I'm sure cost more than what I earn in 6 months. Accessories aside, I didn't spot the one I was looking for....the outline of the Supreme Ruler of ALL Celeb Kids (past present & FUTURE...even in utero, the Smiths kids get defecated on), the protrusion of all things Bootylicious & Brooklyn-esque, the baby bump of the fetus Knowles-Carter. *sighs* I guess she does what I do...film in bulk & release on a schedule.

Internet Moguling

So while I let the blog slightly fall by the wayside, I have been on Youtube & Facebook tryna get my mogul on, you know...tryna get to guru status & shit. So forgive me. I know you still love me. And for those of you have been asking me What exactly is RisqueGlam? here's a little back history.

RisqueGlam is a name a chose years ago, like back when Myspace was just starting out. Back then, I had a couple of websites. One I used as my blog & the other was my portfolio site. I was doing freelance graphic design at the time & even then I branding myself lol. My page on Myspace was one of my creative outlets because I would frequently update my page with a new layout featuring whatever digital art I created at that particular time. RisqueGlam is what I would describe my online persona as a designer to be. Very sexy & sassy, almost enough to make you blush but still glamorous & demure enough for others to aspire to be it. 

Diligence

I don't know what has gotten into but usually Mondays are NOT my most productive days....but this Monday is different. I've been up revamping the blog, brainstorming about video ideas & concepts, setting up a Facebook fan site, networking AND marketing!! Wow. I am really amazing myself. I'm going hard with my brand. Mind you, I have been to sleep in almost 24 hours & I'm running off of 6 strawberries in my tummy that was washed down by a bottle of water. Damn.

Video FAIL

So I'm not even gonna tell you guys how these two tag videos I recorded on Thursday have literally drained all that is joyous & fanciful from my entire weekend. *sighs* Okay so I filmed these videos, uploaded them, & watched them and was like OMG this is really great stuff!! With a little bit of editing, these could be RisqueGlam Classics!! (Like, I'm even relevant or something.)

So I go and click on my handy dandy Windows Live Movie Maker icon & got to work. For about three hours each, I edited the shit outta these two videos. They were the best videos I have produced yet. What's the problem, you say?? Well these little joy-stealers will NOT save as a complete video file!! FML!!! They took absolutely tooooooo lonnnnngggggg to save & when they finally were finish & I viewed them....it would come to a point in the video where it BLACKS OUT!!! All audio, no video.  I'm like, my precious work....gone to waste. *sad face; tear*
