23 songs survived my first round of judging. 
 
I think this is the contest where I feel like I recognised the most artists & songs than ever before, so a slight disappointment, since that leaves less space for me to discover something new from all of these countries, but otherwise, quality seems to be present and it will be a tough judging effort.
 
I might have a top 3, but 4-20 seems like a blur and I definitely need to listen more. 

Going to listen to Israeli song before I start round 2, of course  

This is definitely a PR trick from the Slovak delegation, to get more eyes on their song as people attempt to open it on Youtube. 

Some very important national funding as well, if you manage to place high enough.

It isn't. I just got educated, because I really believed that the Kaunas center is the more modern one
 
It's even better for me, since I live in Vilnius now anyways.

HUGE news for Lithuanian swimming. Vilnius is going to host the 2024 European Junior Swimming Championships.
 
It's the very first time that Lithuania is hosting a prestigious swimming event and we definitely have amazing infrastructure to host it in Kaunas as well, so I was surprised to see Vilnius win the bid.
 
Definitely going to be there if I don't have work on those days.
 
Also, our junior swimming has been improving immensely, so this is going to be an amazing push for our athletes + Plytnykaitė will still be a junior, so medals are also a decent possibility  
 
The very first swimming competition in Lithuania was held back in 1924, so it will be the 100 year anniversary of Lithuanian swimming as well as the 50th European Junior championships as well.

Oh lol, definitely was not expecting to see a Lithuanian Olympic quota tonight
 
I wonder how her Olympic run will look.
 
Would be happy if she added to the Lithuanian medal tally, don't know if I quite consider this an Olympic sport though 

Nah, right now I'm writing Eurovision songs for other artists and Lithuanian pop music + an acoustic indie/folk/pop project in English for my two upcoming albums that are scheduled as a follow up to my debut album that's coming in a month and a half-ish.
 
So writing hip-hop would feel a bit out of place in the near future

As an adult that has no intention of ever having children, I can't wait to become slowly pushed out by society and never see the friends that are starting families anymore
