It's a silly little award, come on. There, there, poor thing. No use crying over it.
You were being a bit silly for expecting it to fall into your lap too, you know. Really really silly. You weren't even working hard enough, dear.
You should have known. Poor thing. I know you'd give every other thing up for that, but really, that's not enough, is it? Wanting it so hard that it hurts is not enough.
They're just numbers, you know. Silly little things those Hindu-Arabics invented for some reason or other. Come on now, what did I say about crying? This is hardly worth it. The experience is NOT the most important thing. The experience is everything. Now let's see that smile.
You'll live.
