Journal Entry 6 (Pg.122-144)

A. Alice is being messed with the drug users at school and being ignored by the normal kids, but is able to meet someone who was kind to her. During this period, her grandma becomes sick and dies. Joel helps her through it. Just as things seem to return to normal, she ends up being hospitalized because someone puts some drugs into the peanuts she was eating. which caused her to hallucinate and cause harm to herself.

B. "Jan sidled up to me as I was walking down the ramp and whispered, 'You better tell your little tail-wagging sister not to accept candy from strangers or even from friends, especially your friends.'"(Pg. 129)

This passage shows how Jan tries to get even with Alice for calling her parents but takes it too far. Many people do this and involve someone's family in a personal discretion.

C. I see Alice as strong. She was able to try and live a normal life after all that happened to her.

D. Alice shows that there is a chance for people like her to quit. I believe others should follow her example.
