  1. ‘Nominated’ doesn’t mean we have a winner.
    But then, who’s the judge?

  2. Happy tears streaming down her rosy cheeks, Stella Knightley clutched her Oscar statuette to her chest. She had just won the Best Supporting Actress award for her role as the stubborn yet loving partner of a young lesbian fighting for her right to get married, and she couldn’t have been more thrilled in that moment.

    Her heart beating a mile a minute, she pushed a strand of soft blonde hair that had managed to escape her impeccable chignon bun behind her small ear. “I — wow. This is so exciting, oh my God. Uh, I’d like to start off by thanking my parents.

  3. sometimes you have to realize
    silence speaks louder than words
    to be a nomination
    is a salutation; an unimportant
    situation
    is to be vaunted as if selection
    things
    or, better perspective passes prejudice
    decision preaches choice
    one idea over another’s perception
    hate can feel like love
    in a spark of hatred as it float above

  5. She slapped the bread down on the wooden grain in front of the boy, and he frowned a bit, but only with his mouth. His head looked up at her, though his eyes didn’t, and he moved, but only with his body. She thrust her hands onto her hips. He laughed, but only with his voice.

  6. lost in a sea of success
    friends; enemies; acquaintances
    how quaint this is
    it’s just an honor to be nominated
    as the person you’ve most forgotten
    an afterthought in aftershocks
    an echo of a memory
    yet i continue to exist
    battered, but not yet broken
    and as i draw each breath
    i get a little closer to knowing.

  8. Brad got the nomination for Congress by besting his opponents. He got pictures of Nelson shacking up with another man’s wife. Teresa was seeing Brenda in the teacher’s lounge at Northwood high School. The biggest problem was William. Brad had to hire an assassin.

  9. i have been nominated for king o’ the world because i am 5’3″ and me and my older bro have a youtube channel “JM&NM Studios” and we are awesome

  10. To be nominated is an honor. For what honor is dependent on each persons.
    Will they be honored about their nominations? Maybe?
    While some nominations are considered a badge of honor, others may find it a
    mark of shame.
    Whether good or bad, once the surprise is revealed, how people react to this is the sign of their true character.

  11. I’m just happy to be nominated. It might be one of the grandest lies told to ourselves. Not grand but pervasive. Of course, we’re happy to be nominated. but there’s nothing that immediately becomes unsatisfying so quick as being nominated but losing.

  12. Chosen. Selected by those I hope to protect and support. A beacon representing the ideals and hopes those that seek to achieve them through support for my success.

  13. I saw her walk the carpet
    She was nominated for an award.
    But in my heart,
    She already won

  14. She heard her name as if in some distant place, a mention in another galaxy, but certainly not in this room. The crowd noise swelled and she was pushed out of her chair and down the aisle. This was a mistake. She tried to turn back to her seat, but someone pulled her up to the stage and thrust the award in her hand and turned her into the microphone.

  15. Surprised, I swiveled in my chair. How did they know me? Who was I to them? They trusted me, but I did not know their names or faces.

  16. Elisa Newman held her breath as she sat in the crowded room, hoping against all hope that she would nab an Oscar nomination for her leading role of Emily Dickinson in the biopic that had been recently released.

    “Wish me luck,” she whispered to her girlfriend, Jessamine, who squeezed her small, manicured hand and gave her a gentle smile. The tall blonde woman onstage pulled out the envelope with the names of the Best Leading Actress nominees. “Thea Isaacs for The Impossible Dream,” she read aloud, and a tiny redhead in the front row blushed and smiled widely.

  22. This pizza was nominated for the universe greatest. It was topped with maggots and pepperoni that was danced on by hairy old people barefooted and cooked for perfection. The tastiest thing I have ever eaten. Also, my s key does not work right I have to pound it really hard thanks to my 3-year-old.

  23. A whistle, screaming almost too high to hear, at the edge of sound and being. A name from a hat, on a tiny piece of paper. You can see the blue ink. You can see the edge, torn where the holes were punched. Folded, unfolded, edges pressed tight together. Where your name should be, you see empty, soundless, moving lips. That whistle, crying out from somewhere at the back of your mind. You’re moving, but your muscles are empty. This is the beginning of everything changing.

  24. Look at her, all smiles and sequins, skirt and sashay up to the big old Hollywood stage. She was nominated for six awards, you see – for acting, design, directing, and a screenplay that read like poetry. And don’t forget the visual effects and cinematography. She’s a one woman show – a bombastic box office boon. Just imagine all the champagne glasses dropping when she waltzes into the room.

  25. The nominations wwrw countless, which led to nothing but problesm because one of the rules of the vote was not being able to vote for yourself. Ans wjen over 90% of the people were nominated the only ones left were the apathetic and the unsuitable and the mentally unstable. Not the sort of selection commitee that makes the best decisions usually.
