2. Alice reminds me of a character from a show called "Degrassi" and she is always complaining about her weight.
3. Alice also reminds me of a character from a movie called "I've Never Been Kissed Before" and this who was considered the geek was in love with the popular guy and he pretended that he was going to take her to prom, but stood her up. Just like the guy, Roger, did to Alice.
