Chapter 2 thoughts on Alice

Connections: Alice is getting weird and tends to talk to herself more and more the farther she goes down the hole and she’s starting to wonder who she is now. We think this article connects to this article https://www.psychologytoday.com/articles/200307/the-dangers-loneliness because the article talks about how loneliness can lead to deprivation of learning and memory, and excessive self-talking, so it’s not confirmed but she could be acting like this because of her loneliness and lack of friends

This connects to Alice Because, Alice is very emotional and her emotions change almost every second, As if she is bipolar and is very confused about who she is.

Alice is socially awkward which is why she doesn't have many friends. We say this because girls at this time were social, but they were socially stable, Alice tends to talk to herself which isn't normal for a girl of her caliber, and in her timeline. Also, Alice is very emotional and that isn't really a matter of timeline in her case because girls are naturally emotional, but girls never were on and off like she is, Alice is basically bipolar and just can't control the way she feels at times. It seems as if she doesn't understand who she is, and how to mature.

To summarize, Alice heard feet in the distance, it was a white rabbit. The rabbit had a pair of white kid gloves and in one hand and a large fan, after a while the rabbit dropped the white kid gloves and the fan and ran into the darkness as fast as he could. Alice later then picked up the items, while holding the fan she started to shrink, but she wasn't paying attention and realized that she was smaller to about two feet high instead of the nine feet she was a few seconds ago. She then started to swim in her tears that she made at nine feet high and perceived to see a mouse in her wake, she then started talking to the mouse. That begin to make her seem strange and unusual.
