Keeper of Insanity: Alrighty, I'll keep him away…by keeping him all to myself!! Mwahahaha!!!
isilhen : Glad you liked the chapter! I guess this takes place about 2 or 3 years after FA…not much really. Sorry I forgot to mention that in the email…
Phaidra: You're in!! Keep you eyes open for your intro!
XNemesis: YAY! Another Grapple lover!! Yeah, I know who Námo, Irmo, Eönwë, and Fëanor are. I've read Silmarillion twice. And yeah, the movies were pretty un-canon in parts. Especially Faramir's role in TTT…that was sooooo messed up!! I was pretty mad at PJ for that. *sigh*
Ladyofthepurpleworld: Agreed, girly, you definitely need your meds. How long has it been since you've taken them?
xLOTUSx: You'll be added soon!! Probably in the next chapter or two. Loved the application!!! I just about died laughing!

Excerpt from the Diary of Rachel Dennings
Well, this is my third day here, and I'm just now deciding to write. Pitiful, I know. They gave me this thing when I applied and told me to keep a journal once I started being normalized. So, I guess that's what I'll do.
This place is pretty okay. The room is really nice. I love my couch! It's huge and covered in wonderful brown corduroy. I have DSL Internet. Maybe I can talk mom into getting me DSL when I get home. The bad thing is, all the fan fiction and fangirl websites are blocked! All the Faramir (and every other character) and David Wenham (and every other actor) websites are blocked too. In fact, the only Lord of the Rings sites available are those stupid "cannon" (or whatever they call it), book-related ones. Found out who Tolkien is, by the way. He's the guy who wrote the books (I'm still not planning on reading them). I think he must have died of lung cancer. He's smoking a pipe in every picture! I also think he must have had something other than tobacco in that pipe. Only an extremely high person could come up with hobbits and languages and all that crap.
I miss all my Faramir stuff! Especially the life-size cardboard standee I have in my closet at home. I wish they had gradually taken my Farrie stuff away from me instead of snatching it away all at once.
Hold on…there's someone at the door…
It was Darron, the ACC worker for my hall. He gave me a not from Altheia, my agent/counselor. It says:
Hello Rachel,
You have made a surprising about of progress these past couple of days. I've decided to allow you a little fandom back in your life. I've unblocked TORn (www{dot}theonering{dot}net*) from your computer. Enjoy!
~Altheia
Hmmmm…TORn? Probably just another stupid "cannon", book-related website. I'll check it out tonight.
Altheia's pretty nice. I'm not quite sure how I think about her yet. I've found I can be pretty open with her. I told her about Mark yesterday. Surprised myself! I wonder it I should let her know that…no, not yet. I'm not ready.
I've talked with a few other girls here, got into a fight with one. I won't say I've made any friends, but there are a few that I really enjoy talking with, Phaidra in particular. She's a bit odd though. The other day, she was following Darron around, poking him in the arm and saying, "Bother…llama…bother…lama…"over and over. It was pretty funny. You could tell Darron was getting annoyed.
Darron is pretty cute actually. I wouldn't say he's hot, but he's definitely not ugly either. I saw this one ACC worker the other day and he was so ugly! He was fat and bald and old! EEW!! I'm glad I don't live in his hall! He probably just works here to check out all the teenage girls. No, not all ACC workers are guys. I've seen quite a few girls too. I'm just more interested in the guys.
I here there are guy agent/counselors too. I heard there's one who is really hot. I think Phaidra said she had him. I can't remember what she said his name was, I think it started with a "G". I wish I had gotten him! Not that I don't like Altheia, but honestly, what girl wouldn't want an excuse to talk to a really hot guy every day!
OH!! Talking about other guys is making me seem undevoted to my Farrie! NO!! But wait…I'm here to get over him, so should I really by freaking out about being undevoted? But at the same time I don't want to lose him. I am so confused about everything right now!
I've been thinking about what Altheia said yesterday, about how Faramir isn't real in my world and David isn't real to me. It really didn't make any sense when she said it, but I've been thinking about it quite a bit, and it makes since now. So, I understand now that I can't really be in love with him, but I think it will still be a while before the infatuation goes away.
I think I might try to wear erm…regular clothes tomorrow instead of the Farrie outfits I usually wear. I might try.
Well, I guess I'll go see about that TORn site Altheia unblocked.
-Rachel Dennings
*YAY!!! I found a way to outsmart the evil FF.n URL eraser!! Mwahahaha!! Take that FF.n! Anyway, TORn is a real site. One of the best LotR sites I've found. It's not really a fandom site, but the people on the message boards can get pretty crazy at times (If you ever go to the boards, ask about "Competition 2003" and "Estrogen Island"!), I'm on there as Faerie-lady of rohan.

So…what did you think? Should I do diary entries often, like say every five chapters? Should I stick with Rachel's diary, or write diary entries of other fangirls as they come along? Let me know!
Sorry it took me so long to update. I joined the school soccer team and we practice for a good 2-3 hours every weekday, unless we have a game. Also I lost the notebook I'm writing this in for about two weeks. Finally found it sitting next to the computer. Why didn't I look there in the first place?
Remember, if you want to apply, email me. You can also apply as an agent or ACC worker. Just email me and let me know!
Review, review, review!!!
