Thank you all!

Wow!

Since this is the Internet, I have no idea who voted
for me to win this award,

but I want to thank everyone who did!

It's really a great honor but most of all it's just wonderful to know

that so many people like to read my little blog.
Nothing is as subjective as acting performances so I know you don't always agree with me but I am happy if you are interested in my thoughts.

I couldn't be happier if I won an Oscar myself! :-)

And since I want everyone to enjoy this blog in the future, too, just post in the comment sections if you have
 suggestions or complaints!

Again, a big, fat THANK YOU to all of you

and, of course,

also a big THANK YOU and my deepest appreciation to

Dempsey, Christian and Kerry from TheMovie411

for all your hard work!

And in case you have missed my acceptance speech, I post it again here.

Okay, I may have borrowed some sentences from actual Oscar acceptence speeches...

Can you guess whose?

Did I really earn this or did I just wear you all down?

Well, this surely isn’t how I imagined it would be in the bathtub! It is a long journey to this moment and I can’t tell you how encouraging a thing like this is! To put it simple: This is the highlight of my day! I hope it’s not all down-hill from here! And I guess this proves that there are as many nuts among the bloggers as everywhere else! I mean, I am just a girl from a trailer-park who had a dream…and I may have the baby right here! But for now, I’m the king of the world!

And I would like to thank Emily Watson and Fernanda Montenegro, and my friend Cate Blancett and the greatest one who ever was, Meryl Streep. And everybody I ever met in my entire life.

This moment...is so much bigger than me! And I thank you all for choosing me as the vessel through which this blessing might flow! And to my mother and my father…you are seeing my dream come true! I think it’s one helluva honor and I am thrilled! And I can’t deny the fact that you like me…right now! You like me! This is a moment of joy and I want to kiss everybody because you are the makers of the joy! Oh, Russell Crowe told me not to cry and now I’m crying… What am I doing here? Especially considering the extraordinary group of Oscar-bloggers that is writing on the Internet! All we bloggers were fortunate enough to have the choice, not just the opportunity, but the choice to create such rich, complex blogs… Anyway, the thrill of this moment keeps me from saying what I really feel…

In the great wealth, the great firmament of your nation's generosities this particular choice may perhaps be found by future generations as a trifle eccentric, but the mere fact of it . . . the prodigal, pure, human kindness of it . . . must be seen as a beautiful star in that firmament which shines upon me at this moment, dazzling me a little, but filling me with warmth of the extraordinary elation, the euphoria that happens to so many of us at the first breath of the majestic glow of a new tomorrow.

I guess this doesn’t mean that I am somebody…but I guess I’m on my way. Thank you life, thank you love! Everybody, I love you! I love you all! Thanks to all of you who voted for me and those who didn’t…please excuse me! God bless that potential that we all have for making anything possible if we think we deserve it.

I deserve this, thank you!
