Awards Night

A yearly ritual is to gather your gal pals and spend the evening watching our many favorite Hollywood stars awarded for their contribution to hallmark tv/movies films in the past year.  Whether it's the People's Choice awards, Emmy's, Golden Globes or the Academy Awards,  it's a night devoted to looking forward to a) The host, who will either flop or entertain to our liking b) observing the Best and Worst dressed of the evening and c) hearing the touching speeches along with finding out the front runners of the Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor/Actress, and Best Actor/Actress as we also countdown towards Oscar night. 

With much anticipation to reserving the night, one can easily host an evening full of games, contests, potluck and ordering in of pizza and other sweet delights.  One awards night event I attended started off with pencils and paper distributed amongst everyone to which the host had surprised us with a game.  Whoever was to guess the most winners of the awards show gets to win a set of DVDs, movies that previously won Academy Award Best Picture.  Unfortunately, I did not keep up with my Oscar worthy movies in the past year and could only guess based on my liking of the talented actors and actresses.  The game at least got us excited at the mere fact that we know who are the up-and-coming new artists entering the industry, and what movies to look forward to watch:)  Lights, camera, action.....
