N°9 for the ask game ?

9. What are your file name conventions

It depends on what file I'm working on really- if it's an illustration I tend to name it "correctly" (example : for the Lawrence illustrations, the files are usually named "lawrence illustration chapter [1, 2,...]")

... As for more miscellaneous stuff such as doodles... Uh... Well.

Let's just say the word "doodles" gets a few... variations. 😭

Eurovision 2019 my top 41 before the shows

So hey!!! After many many months of NF’s, internal selections and lots of eurodrama, finally I’m able to write about my first impressions about the 41 (SHOULD’VE BEEN 42) participating entries in this year’s Eurovision Song Contest. I’ll write short opinions of the entries and the full tea will be here after the live shows, so let’s begin:

1st Place: THE NETHERLANDS/Duncan Laurence-Arcade: Hands down, this is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard in my life, the music is pretty, the lyrics are amazing and I cry while listening to this, which is a good sign. Praying for Amsterdam 2020. 

2nd Place: SWITZERLAND/Luca Hänni-She got me: Switzerland... another pleasant surprise, and with one of my fave artists, this song is fire and C’MON EUROPE, PLS DON’T IGNORE SWITZERLAND. 

3rd Place: AZERBAIJAN/Chingiz-Truth: Azerbaijan... you really surprised me this year, the music is stunning, he’s so charming and it’s one of the best songs IMO, and I’m expecting this to be a dark horse. 

4th Place: ITALY/Mahmood-Soldi: Even if he wasn’t my fave to win Sanremo, the final night changed my mind with this one and it’s such a bop, and I’d like this to be in the top 3 in the final. 

5th Place: ALBANIA/Jonida Maliqi-Ktheju tokës: This entry has a very powerful message and Jonida’s voice is simply a delight, the music is so good and this has a lot of potential to do well, with the right staging. 

6th Place: ICELAND/Hatari-Hatrid mun sigra: If my 2013 self watched this, he’d die, but yeah... WHAT A SONG!!! This usually isn’t my cup of coffee but I don’t know why I like this, must be the music and the chorus, yeah. 

7th Place: POLAND/Tulia-Pali się (Fire of love): Folk rock? In my top 10? YES!!! This has everything I like, a powerful melody, nice voices and it’s so catchy, my fave Polish entry in the 2010′s.

8th Place: MALTA/Michela-Chameleon: Usually I put Malta in my lower spots, but this... is... an IMPROVEMENT, this is the best song they’ve sent in years and I hope this to be big in Tel Aviv. 

9th Place: NORWAY/KEiiNO-Spirit in the sky: What a good song!!! This is a very schlagery song with ethnic elements, this song is pure perfection and it warms my heart. 

10th Place: RUSSIA/Sergey Lazarev-Scream: King Sergey is back!!! And with a nice ballad, which he delivers so good, this might not be You Are the Only One but this has it’s charm, and I’m expecting this to do well in May. 

11th Place: SPAIN/Miki-La Venda: OH POR DIOS!! Spain this year has a very amazing song, and it was the one who stood out the most at Operación Triunfo, he has a lot of charisma and power, and i hope they’ll finish outside the bottom.

12th Place: CYPRUS/Tamta-Replay: Another queen with a bop, even if this reminds me a lot of Fuego, this has a lot of charm, the music is good and if she delivers it good on stage, this will be a contender. 

13th Place: ARMENIA/Srbuk-Walking out: Srbuk is not half a goddess, she’s a full goddess, and this entry is perfect, nice music, the beat is powerful, and I hope she does well.  

14th Place: GREECE/Katerine Duska-Better love: This entry is very amazing, and with every listen it gets better and better, the music is cool, her voice is so special and it has potential to win the contest. 

15th Place: SWEDEN/John Lundvik-Too late for love: Me having Sweden outside the top 10 before ESC is something new for me, but still I like this song, his voice is amazing and the music is good, certainly it will do well. 

16th Place: PORTUGAL/Conan Osiris-Telemóveis: This entry is magical for me, the music is very avant garde and he has an amazing voice, and if this doesn’t qualify I’ll be so sad. 

17th Place: SLOVENIA/Zala Kralj & Gašper Šantl-Sebi: When this won EMA I hated it because it beat Raiven, but time made this grew on me and it’s so cool and... wow. 

18th Place: NORTH MACEDONIA/Tamara Todevska-Proud: A big big ballad, but it’s very good, I love how this builds up and I want to see this live.  

19th Place: DENMARK/Leonora-Love is forever: A cute entry, this is sweet, nice, her voice is good and I loved the chair in DMGP, nice indeed. 

20th Place: SAN MARINO/Serhat-Say na na na: WHAT A COMEBACK FOR A KING, this is very funny as well and I’d die if this qualifies, and i’m bopping so hard to this. 

21st Place: BELGIUM/Eliot-Wake up: This guy has a nice voice and this song is in the line of City Lights which was my 2nd in 2017, so i’m so eager to see the staging and appreciate it’s beauty.  

22nd Place: LATVIA/Carousel-That night: This one when it won Supernova was one of my faves, then it slipped out and now it’s recovering places, a very moody song and it’s very cool. 

23rd Place: CZECH REPUBLIC/Lake Malawi-Friend of a friend: Awwww one of the biggest growers in me, this song is fun, catchy and it makes me dance, I want this to qualify so badly

24th Place: HUNGARY/Joci Pápai-Az én apám: This is a very lovely entry, and I know how is his voice so I’m expecting a lot of this one.

25th Place: BELARUS/ZENA-Like it: It’s nice for me because it reminds me of the late 90′s-early 00′s songs, and it’s catchy, I like this. 

26th Place: SERBIA/Nevena Bozović-Kruna: Woooow stunning voice, she has a lot of stage presence and it’s a pleasant song, a very good one indeed.

27th Place: ROMANIA/Ester Peony-On a Sunday: He is where my “top 10″ starts, this is a very very great song, I like the melody and the performance at Selectia Nationala was so good. 

28th Place: ISRAEL/Kobi Marimi-Home: He certainly has the voice, but this song is a bit flat and it bores me after a while, it promises a big deliver but nothing comes, but not a bad song. 

29th Place: IRELAND/Sarah McTernan-22: This is one of the songs that I need to be in certain mood to enjoy, not a bad choice but yeah, a bit off putting 

30th Place: FINLAND/Darude ft. Sebastian Rejman-Look away: Again, another song that at first I was crazy about but then I realized this was a bit flat, not what I was expecting. 

31st Place: MOLDOVA/Anna Odobescu-Stay: Not a bad ballad but IMO it’s just there... still I enjoy it more than the songs below. 

32nd Place: LITHUANIA/Jurijus-Run with the lions: As with Estonia, I had a soft spot for this one, but it’s not longer one of the songs I listen the most from this year, let’s see how this entry delivers on the big stage. 

33rd Place: UNITED KINGDOM/Michael Rice-Bigger than us: Not a bad song, it’s just middle of the road for me after all the songs were released, nice voice but it’s missing something. 

34th Place: FRANCE/Bilal Hassani-Roi: Okay, having in mind what France has sent in the last 3 years, this is a big letdown, it’s a nice song, I don’t hate it as I did back in January but still, I can’t enjoy this at all. 

35th Place: ESTONIA/Victor Crone-Storm: This when it won Eesti Laul was a nice choice for me, but then it slipped out and now I don’t find it special or good, it may qualify but it’s not a nice option. 

36th Place: AUSTRALIA/Kate Miller-Heideke-Zero Gravity: Well I have mixed feelings with this one because there are parts that I like and parts I don’t like, but she has a nice voice so let’s see how this will do. 

37th Place: AUSTRIA/PÆNDA-Limits: Hmmm... I was expecting something else from her, but this doesn’t go anywhere sadly. 

38th Place: MONTENEGRO/D-Mol-Heaven: Also this one is very very very dull, the only thing I want to say is that the videoclip is stunning. 

39th Place: GERMANY/S!sters-Sister: Nope, this is also a big no for me, with the first notes I knew this was going to be a snoozefest, so let’s see how will this do on Tel Aviv.

40th Place: CROATIA/Roko-The Dream: Ehhhh... nope, just no, you missed a chance here with me, he sings nice but no.  

41st Place: GEORGIA/Oto Nemsadze-Keep on going: This entry is... not very good, and he wasn’t my fave in the National Final so when he won I was surprised, this song isn’t anything special
