Middle Earth, The Fourth Age, 1169
I sat outside on my balcony, looking out into my kingdom. As I watched the birds fly through the trees, I thought about what I was supposed to do with my life now that Sauron had been defeated. Then, love came to my mind. I realized that I needed to find a wife, if I was to be King one day. The only problem is, I dont want her to be just any maiden. I guess I actually want to be in love when I get married. I dont want to have a wife chosen for me. I went on a journey for Middle Earth, now Im on a quest for myself (at the risk of sounding selfish, which is not my intention.) I am determined to find her before it is time for me to take the throne. Given that my father does not die anytime soon, that should give me plenty of time. I just hope that nothing happens too soon.

My boyfriend broke up with me today. This sucks! Every boy that I go out with just throws me off like Im some sort of disgusting insect! Ive tried talking to my mom, but she just doesnt get it. I feel like I cant talk to anyone anymore! I cant even talk to my best friend, since I dated him. My god, what the hell am I going to do? I just want to find the right guy for me. But what do I want in a guy? I guess he needs to be sweet, funny, yet hard-working and serious when he needs to be. I wouldnt mind if he was good-looking too. And who is he? Where am I going to find him? Or will he find me? Maybe Ill never know. Oh well. Maybe Im just not meant to have a boyfriend. Why does my life have to be so miserable?

My people are celebrating the annual Winter Celebration today. Although it is a joyous occasion, I am sad. I’m sure that the reason is clear…I have yet to find her. Every day, I ask myself, Where is she? When will I find her? I know that I sound like a hopeless romantic, but it’s what I am. I want to find that special girl, or I fear that I shall pass before my time.
I must stop here, for I must prepare for the festival, no matter how depressed I am.

Christmas Eve…what a pointless holiday. It’s so full of cheer and love…if there is such a thing. Does love even exist? I know, I sound like a hopeless romantic, but ever since he broke up with me, Ive been just depressed and down. I don’t want to be, but I am. I saw him today. He said that I would get over it…that I’m strong. Ha, yeah right! I don’t think Ill ever get over him. There will never be anyone like him again…ever...in my life
I have to go and get ready. We’re having a party at my cousins house.

Hopeless Romantic
Middle Earth, The Fourth Age, 1170, January 4th
I discovered a most curious thing today. I was searching the Library for something I hadn’t read. I removed a book from the shelves and the bookshelf began to move! Behind it was what looked like a keyhole. The only thing was, it was shaped like the leaves of Lothlorien, like the broach that Lady Galadriel had given us when the Fellowship was in Lothlorien last. As I got closer, I noticed that there was a small heart in the center of it. I reached out to touch it, and it began to glow. This startled me, and I pulled my hand away. I wonder what it could be. I’m sure that I shall find out soon enough.

I was looking around in my attic today. As I did, I found something. It was a little silver key. At the ring, it looked like those broaches that the guys in Lord of the Rings wore. I took it to my mom. She said that she had never seen it before, but that I could have it if I wanted it. I went back to the attic and got the box that it was in. Then, I went back to my room and fastened the key around my neck. As I looked in the mirror, I realized how pretty it really was. The key part was silver and really shiny. The ring was a beautiful green leaf with silver lining. I actually was happy for once. As I turned around, I noticed that there was something on the inside of the lid of the box. I picked up the box to take a look. It was a keyhole. I wanted to try it then, but I decided to wait until tonight. I’ll document everything later.

The Curious One now
Later that night, Michelle tried to put the key in the keyhole. It was a perfect fit. As she turned it, a light started to glow from the center. Once the key clicked into place, the light was really bright and strong. Suddenly, a portal opened up right in front of her. At the same time, Legolas was in the secret chamber again, and he was reaching out to the heart. Michelle got sucked into the portal with a scream just as Legolas hand made contact with the heart. There was an explosion of light and next thing Michelle and Legolas knew, they were on the ground, with Michelle on top of Legolas. She had crossed into Middle Earth.
