something that you obtain through victories won with team work leaders and coaches such as supervisors or such things. the most coveted thing of sports today and people always strive for!

a trophy is somthing that you win when you do something that somebody else thinks is nifty. There are trophy’s for differnt places, such as first place, second place, etc. Trophies can be made out of gold, silver, bronze, or sometimes human flesh.
Wendy
The trophy stands proud on my desk. Gleaming with pride, shining with joy. But it’s arrogant stature doesn’t fool me. It’s just an empty cup.
Nishat
Ive never won a trophy. Really Ive never won anything. I can’t say my life has added up to much, but I know that who I am has combined everything I know. As tacky and cliche as it all sounds, I really have taken in/created/been inspired by the smallest things, and because of that I can begin to see myself as someone I want to be. An artist. So I won’t win a trophy for knowing who I am, but maybe I’ll win something meant to be heart-warming or life-changing; like “believing in myself”, or “being who I am despite hardships.”
Pshh. We’ll see.
Jaida
i won trophies while playing sports as a kid

It displays the god damn bridge there, like a trophy to say “Look, I can do what I want with your city and there is nothing you can do about it”. Nobody liked it, nobody thought it was necessary, but there it is.
There was a time long a go, when a trophy meant something. When there was a certain honour that went with it. Respect, and dignity. Now all these word mean nothing. Not a damned thing…
Josiah
it is a word that is often laddered with meaning..a little superficial in the sense that yopu can get a trophy for your achievements and you can be a trophy possession. never giving the sense of victory or achievement that it should.
apeksha
Winning doesn’t always mean bringing home the trophy. Some of my greatest victories have left me on the floor, dusting my boots, grateful to have endured.

tophies make a child feel loved, by someone besides family. when i was young, i would get a trophy for a sport, and i felt like the king of the world. or queen, i guess. it was great. why does that stop as we grow old?
I won the bowling trophy when I was in high school. I was a part of the district championship team. I also know people who are trophy hunters though that has no appeal to me. If I am going to win a trophy it will be in sports of some kind.
Keith Broyles
i have like eight trophies in my room. i wish they would give trophies out for something besides sports. like love or peace. do they already have that? trophies make people feel loved, for some reason. like society loves them. why’s that? a piece of metal does that? what’s the point?
Delilah
I won a few trophies in high school in speech and debate. It felt so great to go up on stage and be recognized by others for excelling at something. Everyone wants to be good at something. I miss speech and debate, not for the trophies, but because I enjoyed it so much. It was a thrill. It made me feel intelligent, like I had something to say.
Alysia Spencer
What was it all for? Did you have fun? What did you really win?
Zac
you kept me as your trophy
a shining memory of all you wanted to be with
i’m not your fucking trophy
i have thoughts and hopes
and after you kick them down
i cry at the thought of sitting on your shelf
collecting dust
being nothing
The trophy sat there just covered in dust, mocking him. The owner looked on with discontentment.
“I used to be something! Yeah, and look where I am today.” he sighed and looked at his wore down mobile home and his wife, well now…soon to be ex-wives wedding ring on the kitchen table. So… Now what?
Me
I earned a few when i was younger. Two for swimming, a soccer trophy, a talent show one. My brother has lots of them. I wish I had more. Now I’m thinking along the lines of trophy wives. I want to be a pretty wife, but not someone’s trophy. Now I’m going to start thinking all philosophically.
Bekah
Trophies are something to strive for, but what do you do with them once you have them? I’ve got a few, but I don’t care about them anymore. I don’t have the room for them, and the accomplishments aren’t something I’m willing to hold onto anymore.
Everything can be a trophy. Anything somebody shows off and prides themselves on can be called a trophy. But do you really need that trophy? Doesn’t it get in the way, and make you lose sight of things sometimes? Can it make you act like an ass, step over some people, ignore some important things, in order to get it? What about husbands and wives? You marry them because they’re beautiful, not because you love them? You only love what you see. What a waste of a vow, what a shallow heart. Same thing goes for money. Guess that’s a trophy too, because people sure show it off like it’s all they care about. When did true love and happiness become overrated?
haha trophy wives. but hey, that’s life. as long as your happy, does anything else really matter? consider all the famine and hunger and depression in the world. we could use a little more happy. at least, i think so.
maggie
I only have one trophy, but I have been in numerous sports. I’ve played volleyball, basketball, tennis, swimming, diving, gymnastics. They all resulted in one thing: quiting. My mom told me that I was a begginner but never a finsher. She tried to tell me in a nice way that I simply suck.
so one day, at the age of ten, I decided I was going to be a champion. I was going to win and acquire that gold medal. Okay not a gold medal, but a trophy. I was going to show my mom what I was capable of. So I tried the first sport I could think of: softball.
I wish I could tell you I loved it. I wish I could tell you that I was remotely good at it. But that would be one fat lie. I hated it. I detested it. I wanted so badly to quit. But I was going to get that trophy.
My team didnt win the championship nor the division. Matter of fact, we were last. But in the end I got my trophy. And that trophy still holds its place on my shelf. Six years later, that is my only trophy, but it was only the start of my accomplishments. That trophy was my push into reality.
Start it and finsh.
natalie
The trophy came home to rest on my mantle. I worked hard to prepare for that win. And I deserved it. I waited years for the trophy to appear. And all my fans were there to cheer me on.
Denny
One day I was sitting on my couch. I looked up and saw what seemed to be a trophy. I stood on the couch and reached for the odd object. Right as I almost had a hold of it, my foot slipped and I fell right on my back! Of course, when I fell, it shook the floor so the trophy came flying at me, and landed right on my face. Then I woke up in a hospital bed.
Kimbra
trophys are won by nice people. people who are smart and talented and better than others like me. i always could guess who would win the trophies at the ceremonies, because the same people win them every year. the preps, the jocks and the plain weird people that have no friends and the teachers feel bad.
lynsey
Victory is all mine. I’m not conceited or anything. I just know that I can’t lose. This is my sport. This has always been my sport. This is the one thing my sister can’t take away from me. She has all those trophies in the livingroom on the mantle. But this time it’s gonna be me being praised by mom and dad. Me. Not her.
A trophy for him. Nothing but a piece of reward. Is that all I am to everyone? Is that all I’ll ever be to him? Maybe if I prove to him I’m more. He’ll love me for who i am.. Maybe
A trophy is junk. Nothing but a reminder of something accomplished. It’s usually gold or silver or a cup. Sometimes it’s such a thing as a buck’s head, antlers there, eyes still with death. It’s a reminder of something that doesn’t matter…
its great never have i ever seen something like it. the sun gleams off its surface and yet i can hold it in my arms. its mine. the relief and the acceptance are all mine. but its a lie. for you see this trophy is not mine it is theirs. its always their’s and the ability to take it, it isn’t mine to have, so ill place it back and dream of my own.
miss taylor
I once had a boyfriend who told me I’d make the perfect trophy wife. And ashamed as I am to admit it, I liked the idea at the time. Some feminist I am. My head was turning with dreams of being a rich, well-taken-care-of officer’s trophy wife. Not so bad, right? Could be worse…

alexis
He won the trophy. He was so proud of himself. He had finally done it. He had achieved what he had wanted to achieve in a long time. It wasn’t an easy thing to do, but he had done it, finally after several tries. He had reached his goal.
Pilvi
When I see the word “trophy”, I think about my pathetic attitude towards sports. Yes, I’ve won one trophy. Even writing that seems like an oxymoron. I have never been able to play sports well and I bet I could be a lot better if I actually cared. My dad used to brag about how I threw like a boy every time he made me put on my softball glove.
jenny
Trophy wives are useless and annoying. So is being used. When I was younger I won a beauty pageant and received 3 trophies. I wonder why they’re so important to people. After all, they’re simply material objects.
Taylor
special makes you feel special and smart creative enyone can get one but this is yours what ever it is for you are great at you will love what you get it for. go for another 1
serena
A trophy of her affection. The teddy bear sits atop her bookshelf along with PEZ dispensers and gum packs. He won it at the fair. He had tried over 40 times to get the ball into the hoop. It shouldn’t of been that hard, but it’s the thought that counts. I love him and that is all that matters.
Olivia L
I got nothin’ for this one.
L.A. man. What a place.
Getting a tour of the set for the show Castle tomorrow as I met the assistant to the producer a few weeks back at a reception.
Work needs more hours and it’s only an internship. Man, they better have a job for me next summer when I’m back out here.
At starbucks gettin’ my internet fix for the day like the junkie I am. Oooh yeah. Gimme some of that ‘e’-mail.
i always wanted a trophy that was bigger than the one my dad had on our mantle for bowling. I finally got one for little league and I was thrilled. i have no idea where that is now, but have my dad’s trophy on my bookcase and I’m more proud of his than I am of mine. he worked harder for his.
Ken Van Egdon
Something that is given to you when you have done something. Something you get for being right. When will i be right? When will I get a trophy? When will I be good enough for you?
You.
I have many trophies. I danced, cheer-leaded, hahha, pageants.. etc. I was a trophy once.. abusive relationships suck! OHHHH wellllll.
