8th Annual UltimateDisney/DVDizzy Forum Awards - CEREMONY

[Flanger-Hanger]

I actually won something too, even without being nominated? That's awesome! I knew this site wasn't a waste of half a decade of my life!

Thank you for the honor and congrats to all of this year's winners!

Wow, I actually won something?! Thank you all who voted for me, it feels great to be appreciated, even for something small as an online forum avatar.

And congratulations to all other winners and nominees, you're all amazing. Special shout-out to enigmawing for all of her wins, they're all well deserved!

SHJ, thanks for the great ceremony, I cracked up at some of the comments. I hope you do this again next year.

Though I usually associate people with their avatars, in my head CJ resembles Allison Janney's character from "The West Wing." I can think of no greater compliment.

Oh, absolutely! You nailed that one perfectly! Congratulations to CJ and of course to disneyboy and singerboy, both well-deserved winners!

Also congrats to SHJ and Enigma for being Members of the Year and all the other winners!

Thanks to those who nominated me.

First of all, I just want to give a HUGE congratulations to all the winners and nominees! You are all examples of what makes our forum such a wonderful place to be!

Second, another HUGE thank you to SpringHeelJack for hosting the ceremony! I personally don't know how much of an undertaking it is, but I'm sure it's no easy feat!

Lastly, I am very proud to accept the Jiminy Cricket Spirit Award. I was completely caught off guard by this! In fact, I was randomly checking into the forum during a class I was a Teacher's Aide in (not something I was supposed to be doing btw, haha), when I saw that I had gotten the award. Being completely honest it actually moved me to a tear or two. I'm used to not being nominated for things or listed as a favorite member and so on because I'm not as much of an avid poster. I think the longest I've gone without reading or checking up on the forum has only been 3 or 4 days since I joined Feb 9, 2005, but since I maybe post something once for every 10 times I check in many of you don't know me personally so I've come to accept that I'm not typically among the first, in any, of the people that comes to mind when you think of the forum. That's why receiving this award is legitimately something special to me. This kinda proves to myself that my presence is noticed on the board and that I've made a good impression. It's a huge Sally Field "You like me! You really like me!" moment for me!

So thank you SpringHeelJack for remembering that I'm here, and thank you to the UD community as a whole for being who you are.

Love,
Jeff

I was expecting the awards ceremony to be a dull read, but I actually had a blast. Congratulations to everyone who won, and thank you to those who wrote speeches (I particularly enjoyed yours, Umbrellafish)! You pulled it off, SpringHeelJack.

And a big round of applause to enigmawing and SpringHeelJack for winning member of the year!

[Disney Duster]

Thank you so much for being our new host and going through all the work and annoyances, and for also being a great host, SpringHeelJack!

And congratulations to aaaalll the winners!

Thanks to anyone who nominated me for Friendliest Member! I think I can be a total b*tch sometimes so, I am quite surprised, but honored, because I do indeed try to be kind to and like everyone here. Love for all you forum peeps!
