Alice Metamorphosis

Since today’s blog is about free topic, I’d like to share someone very special and has some very special abilities to make herself look mental; Alice Lee. When I first met her at my junior year of high school, Alice came to Saipan and presented herself as a normal teenage girl. She was very quiet, preserved, normal, and non-talkative. Over the years, as I got to know her and vise versa. Some of her inner abilities came out like an alien coming out of that women’s stomach in the movie “Alien”. She taught us (our senior class) the important lesson of not to judge a person by the cover. She taught me that because the cover of the book is very fancy does not mean the content inside the book is also rich with ideas, beauty and normality of a human being. Alice has some very special qualities that makes people cringe with fear and worry. The way she constantly spaces out or the fact that she’s now painting her nail aqua green or obsessing over some soccer player brings us to question her sanity and level of her mental stability. Don’t get me wrong here. We....or I love her to bits, but it just struck me with such an awe and shock how the same person can change 180 degrees over a period of year. The once quiet, preserved Alice turned into an annoying, SO talkative, SO loud, SO bouncy, abnormally acting girl who jumps around all over the place, but then, I thought....that’s okay. As long as she continually gives me food, no matter how weird she gets, I can handle that.
