It is my privilege to be standing in front of you today to receive the John Newbery Medal. I am not one for awards or even the concept that one person should receive accolades for a personal victory. I believe that nothing is ever achieved by one person and that in some way shape or form all successful things in life are part of a collaboration of some sort. Whether it is a kind word or a simple s...

“Thank you, thank you so much! I can’t believe it I’m still in shock. I never thought this day would come, but here we are.

I’d first like to thank my family for believing in me. I wouldn’t be who I am today without all of you. And to my human family, thank you for showing me that this is who I’m supposed to be by not loving me.

This prestigious award is proof that I was meant for this l...

"And the Best Crime Director of the Year Award goes to... Y/n!"

Everyone started clapping. I was stunned. I was not expecting to get an award this year. Especially because this is my first award ceremony. I walk up on stage, accept my trophy, and give my speech.

"I would just like to say thank you."

"Thank you to my family, friends, and fans for making this happen."

"This award means the w...

“Hello everybody. I have won this award this year to announce the newest initiates to our organization. We strive for control. At whatever costs. Ya you guys are allowed to cheer. The newest intitate comes from a highly talented family. Her siblings, Alia, Cole, and Leon, were close takers for her spot. But. They died and she lived. We want to provide a place where are people may thrive. We are no...

The hands wrapped around the twisted golden sculpture are secure, self-assured. But the palms, palms full of tiny little sweat glands that are immune to false displays of confidence, grow slippery. I force myself to move my body, to let go of the object in my hand or to throw it into the crowd of people. Willing my hands to do anything brazen or stupid to show that this body is still mine, but of ...

Jesus and god help on our journeys and we pray to Jesus and god all morning and nights...

Hello everyone, first of all, I would like to thank Ron and Harry for helping me to take more risks in life, even though that’s nothing to do with the Golden Wand awards. *laughter* I’d also like to thank my parents who supported me as a witch when they are muggles. I started the journey, and my friends and family pushed me to keep going. It’s been an honor to have won this award. To bad I already...

…Quite a breath taking moment for Martha, as she was about to announce a simple ‘thanks’ to a gigantic audience. “How embarrassing this will be”, Martha thought, as she is an introvert and did not have any practice of public speech. She walks into view for the audience to see, blushing, and with an awkward smile that could tell you that she has never done this in her entire life. “Um…uh…well..hell...

“Hey everyone.” Bucky starts. “For those of you who don’t know I’m James Buchanan Barnes, but you can call me Bucky.” Bucky smiles awkwardly. “I wanted to thank Steve for giving me the privilege to be human again. If he didn’t get me out of Hydra I wouldn’t get this award, so thank you Steve and thank you Queens!” Bucky runs off stage to give you a hug....

*deep breath*

"Um, hello everyone. I, um, just wanted to start, uh, by saying that" *pause* "that I'm glad for everyone being able to make it" *smiles in embarrassment at the awkward sentence*

"So, uh, I just wanted... I'm very thankful to be receiving this award for Highest Customer Engagement." *smiles nervously, feeling undeserving of the award*

"For those of you who don't know me, I, well I...
