What I do in my free time

Hello everyone! Sorry it's been a little whille since I last posted, but I've been crazy busy with school!
There aren't many updates at the moment, but I decided to show you guys what sorts of things I do, that are Libera related in my free time! Also, look out for a new post comming up with 3 (or more) new CD's that I'll be getting on my brithday, January 27th!

During choir I often get quite bored because our director has to spend half the lesson lecturing some members on how to behave, or while she is working with the Altos or Soprano 2s  and I have some spare time I like to, let's say decorate, the backs of my sheet music.
 They can turn out looking like this;

Or this;
(not completed yet!)


Another thing I have done it wrote all the boys names on popsicle sticks, I'm going to eventualy make something using them, I'm just not sure yet! They couldn't all fit in the picture, but here's what I got.







 I also like to make backgrounds for my iPod touch! I currently don't have any of mine saved to my new laptop, but I have 2 my friend made, so I'll use those as examples! [credits to Hannah!]

Hope ya'll liked the random post! I'll try to keep updating, hopefully we'll get more news as the Epsom concert approaches!

O Sanctissima on Songs of Praise today!



What a lovely performance! The cathedral where this was shot is beautiful! I'd love to attend the next Arundel concert, but I don't think I'll be able to fly over to London again, after Epsom. It's nice to see that Josh is in the video, with his long hair! ;D Overall a great video, it's great Libera was able to upload this so quickly! They sure know how to please their fans!!!

Fan Poster for Epsom!

A few weeks ago I was home sick.. I decided I didn't really like the Epsom Playhouse's poster for the Libera cocnert, so went ahead and made my own :D It's not the greatest thing ever, but I'm pretty proud of it! (I make graphics for websites, but so far I haven't liked anything as much as this!)

I'm not asking Libera to use this or anything, I'd just like to show people my work! Hope to see some of you guys there! :)

Libera apperance on Songs of Praise January 16th!

Next week, on Sunday January 16th, Libera will be on BBC's Song of Praide for the Arundel eppisode.
"Sally Magnusson discovers the historical secrets of the Sussex market town, and introduces hymns from the Roman Catholic Cathedral and a sparkling performance from Libera."
I wonder which song it will be? Possibly the one we have pictures of being filmed outside? Maybe Sanctisima? I'd personally like Exsultate, as it's a super fun happy song!
I really hope someone will record it and post it on youtube, or that Libera will post it themselvs! :D


EDIT:
Sorry for this very late edit, but it has been confirmed that they will be singing Sanctisima!
I can't wait or it to be on youtube for all the non-UK fans to see!
