'Ollo!

I began this blog April 2012, I believe I didn't blog enough. Over these few years my world has changed, I've felt so low and so high, coming to terms with adulthood. I should have written down how I felt at these points in my life, allowed myself to compare and note down how I over came those low days to be able to have my high happy days. Also to generally write about a good day so I have something to have alongside my photos. I'm creative and imaginative but struggle to explain or write down my ideas, I'm going to make sure I use this blog effectively and improve my confidence.

Of course I've already had a 'first post' but this one is about everything I didn't say, for any reader to understand me a little more.

10 facts about me... 

  1. My name is Libby, I accept any modification of this - Libs, Liv, Libaroon. I'm Olivia from birth, but it's too elegant for me which is why I prefer Libby.
  2. I'm 20... written 'Twen-teen' 
  3. Lived in Suffolk for all of those years, hopefully within the next decade I'll up sticks, leave my parents and see my life in London.
  4. I plan to be a photographer of live music, tour with a band, take an iconic shot of a musician that gets shared around much like the ones I share of The Vamps or All Time Low.
    - Dean Sherwood & Adam Elmakias are big inspirations.
  5. In 2014 I went to 24 concerts, this year I'll probably match it.
  6. Being out of my teen years doesn't stop me watching Disney films & collecting various items from the store.
  7.  Cats are one of THE greatest animals. My Instagram is filled with snaps of my cats, they're sometimes the only friends you need.
  8. I'm forever starting something & then never finish it. (like this blog)
  9. Sometimes too generous, but my heart refuses to stop.
  10. ... one time, when I was about 4, I followed a chicken into its house. There is photo evidence.
There's a few bits about me. Hope you enjoy whatever my blog may bring, more than likely gig reviews.

See you in a week...

I joined a Prince's Trust Team Programe a couple of weeks ago, I was completely unaware of it and what they do, all I knew was it's for people 'like me' and my age. Over the last 6 months I've been trying quite hard, I thought I'd have a job by now, I assume I lack experience. So why not. Right? The idea of the programe is to build up my confidence, fill my CV with new experiences and take part in community/charity projects over 12 weeks.  The first week was much easier and I enjoyed it more than I thought I would, it was a get to know eachother week. The others on my programe are from my town & are all having the same trouble as me - we can't get jobs, for a variety of reasons.  On Tuesday, we all went on a 4 day residential. We travelled to Essex to an outdoor team builder activity camp, I didn't know what to expect but it did get a bit crazy and stressful. We had ladder runs every morning at 9.30 - the worst way to wake up, climbing, orienteering ...

All Time Low & You Me At Six | O2 Arena 2015

Image
22 Aug 2014 ... "Oh hey mum, You Me At Six  AND  All Time Low are co-headlining the O2 arena..." "Let's get tickets!"  I'd only just bought tickets to see ATL at Wembley the week before the tour announcement and I'd just seen YMAS at T-in The Park in the previous month, but my mum knows how much I adore both bands so wanted to treat me. That was that, on the 28th thanks to pre-sales I got tickets for valentines day. I first saw You Me At Six at Norwich UEA in March 2010, (here's some footage I recorded of The Consequence https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWmdUMiS0KA ) they were touring with their second album Hold Me Down, which is my personal favourite. I still remember the feeling I had when I heard the sirens and search lights were circling the crowd, I can also still picture the moment Max sprayed water over us haha. I first saw All Time Low in February 2012 at Hammersmith Apollo, (here's Do You Want Me Dead from the night...

'Catching fire like kerosene, literally' - 5 Seconds Of Summer | Wembley Arena 2015

Image
It's been approximately 24hrs since I was lying upside down on my sofa slowly updating my Instagram feed with my 5SOS weekend. Of course I has to assure my aesthetic was maintained with every post, like all 'pro' instagrammers. Yesterday, after three days in London I arrived home, exhausted, un-injured but feeling rather proud and suffering with major PCD or PTD (Post Tour Depression) On Sunday, the 14th of June, I saw 5 Seconds Of Summer headline London's Wembley Arena, as part of the European & UK leg of their ' Rock Out With Your Socks Out World Tour' The band sold out three consecutive nights at the iconic venue and I'd managed to nab tickets to both Saturday and Sunday shows. The previous weekend I had travelled across the country to Birmingham catching 5SOS twice at The Barclaycard Arena (I planned on blogging about that weekend, but I guess it just didn't happen) Yet again, 5 Seconds Of Summer have given me two memorable breaks from t...
