Alice in "Alice in Wonderland" Describing Herself

Summary:   A hypothetical example of how Alice from "Alice in Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll would talk and describe her life.


My name is Alice which as far as I know would make me a girl, or a female to use the proper word. The most treasured family member is my cat that I named Dinah. Dinah is the great at hunting and killing animals. Boy I hope I did not upset you, those other creatures sure were. I cannot seem to keep this to myself lately. Then there is my sister, she was there when I woke up from that strange dream.

I am seven years old and have blonde hair and blue eyes. I wish I could say how tall I am but anytime I would eat anything I would either shrink or grow. It gets awfully confusing for a little girl like me. At one point I was bigger than a house. Luckily I managed to find that mysterious potion that shrunk me back to my right size. What's my right size you ask? Well I would not quite know, I am about the same size as any seven year old would be.

During my dream I met a lot of interesting characters, some of which I hope I do not come across again. For example, the Queen of Hearts. She is a strange lady for every time we would meet I would hear her screaming, "Off with their head!" That game of croquet was so scary. I was convinced she would chop my head off as well. There were a lot of creatures that I met in my dream. Here they are before I forget them all. There was: Chesire the Cat, the White Rabbit, the King of Hearts, the Duchess, the Mad Hatter, the Dormouse and the Catterpillar. Though I did not get to know all of them very well, I will still remember them for the longest time. For example, Cheshire the Cat, he was one of the most reasonable characters I found in Wonderland. He kept on disappearing though. It was quite funny when the Queen of Hearts wanted to chop his head off when he only has a head. Then there is that White Rabbit, he always seems to be in a hurry. Oh dear did I hate that King of Hearts. He is so self-centered, stubborn, and very unlikable. I could swear that he is being dominated by his wife. The last character I would like to talk about is the Caterpillar. Sure he is not the most pleasant but strangely enough he had the ability to change my size at his will. A useful fellow he was in that strange Wonderland.

I tend to be a very curious and adventurous person that is why I would say that I like to learn and acquire knowledge. I am not the sort of person to walk away from a situation without putting my two cents in. I may not always be right but standing up for what I believe is right is important. One of my dislikes, besides the Queen of Hearts, is when people are unfair and mean to others.

One of the conflicts that I faced in my dream was how I followed that rabbit which led me to fall in that hole. It felt like I was going to fall right through the earth. In the dream I faced many challenges like my height, getting lost in the forest, and being a witness in that trial. Just as I was going to have my head chopped off by the queen I managed to wake up in the warm hands of my sister. Luckily it was all a dream because such strange things could surely not happen in real life.

Like I have said before my problem resolved with me waking up to my sister saying, "Wake up, Alice dear! Why, what a long sleep you've had!" Once I was fully awake I proceeded to tell her about all of my strange adventures and the many funny and interesting characters I have made. She seemed interested and amazed at my dream.

Some of my hopes for my future include being able to keep my imagination and curiosity as I grow into an adult. I like that I always follow through with an idea when I get one as well as my kind-heartedness towards everyone I meet. I hope to be able to continue with my education, I am truly a curious person. My hopes for my future is mainly well being for myself and my family.
