Okay, I guess, I'm out despite the mistake
I'm not blaming
@Territrius for that at all! I understand, mistakes happen sometimes, especially in contests with so many participants, and I'm not the one who's gonna blame the host for that, hosting is not that easy and we all have different circumstances, so... it's 100% understandable and forgivable as for me! It was noticed and fixed quickly, and I didn't really feel like a finalist for a long time, so I think it's fair to just accept the actual results and go with 28 finalists.
But, UNRELATED to the mistake, the fact that I didn't qualify according to the actual results... Well, of course is discouraging and I think I had some expectations this time + last spot in the running order made me even more excited, and I'll be honest -- I intentionally put myself lower in predictions because I didn't want to set too much expectations, but seeing others putting me low as well lead me to think that, well, I guess I'm not gonna make it this time either...
Now I feel torn, because on one hand I have the next song ready and I'm so excited to try with it, but on the other hand... I'm not feeling hopeful anymore and it feels like something is wrong with me or my taste, that I cannot bring something that other participants would enjoy anymore... (it's only 2 bad results in a row + 1 nq here, but in the other contests I don't really have success recently as well, it's one bottom result after another bottom result and again and again...
). And because of that I also want to try again as fast as possible, but it would actually take a good while until the next edition. And maybe the fact that I cannot just focus on the process of participating and enjoying other songs, despite understanding really well that this may actually help to take all the failures easier, is not a very good sign either... But we'll see, I don't want to take any rushed decisions, I'll try to relax and not worry too much about it, and I guess, it would help
And writing my thoughts here and expressing my feelings, like I did now, really helps as well
Again, this is all UNRELATED to the mistake, so please, don't take it personally,
