Sorry for missing last weeks post! I will catch all of you guys up right now on what is happening in Alice's life!
After all of the makeups and breakups in relation to Alice's drug addiction it begins to foreshadow Alice's soon to become life. Everything seems to be clearing up and she even meets a college boy at her father's school where he works. It is not until later when I was reading that I discovered Alice's "episode" . Considering it was a long diary entry I will just paraphrase what occurred during her whole incident. Alice wakes up unaccounted to knowing who or where she is, and then realizes she had a random blackout, and had undressed herself to the point where she was lying naked on her floor. After the whole blackout arises she tries to forget about the whole incident even occurring and that she will be perfectly fine; and everything was until her grandfather had a stroke and then died. The tragic event caused Alice to become sordid and then after witnessing her own grandmothers depression she was even more sorrowful. Now here comes the life lesson part, the part where it is questioned how to deal with life when there is a dramatic downfall. Drugs signify the happiness that is felt while on them and the sadness is represented by Alice's life going down hill after using them. The use of drugs is an endless cycle used to cause happiness and then once again used to relieve ones mind from pain. Although it has yet to be discovered that the only way to overcome an obstacle is to go to someone for help, and it then when no one is present, that individuals turn to drugs.
