I thought of Audrey as the obsessive overachiever, someone who is intensely committed (almost to a fault) to school and extracurricular activities. She repeatedly mentions being overwhelmed by school, with her enormous workload of classes and school activities causing her to start losing a stable sleep schedule. Despite being overwhelmed, it’s evident on page 82 that she doesn’t believe she’s doing enough, with her thinking not about her own stress but about how she “knew a handful of students involved in even more activities”. I can relate to this, being that every year in the yearbook I feel

This week I attended a seminar for a topic called ALICE, ALICE stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. I learned that the ALICE Report places a spotlight on a large population of hardworking people who work just as hard as anyone else, yet have little or no savings, and are one emergency from falling into poverty.

Even though the dynamic of Annie and Mae’s relationship rarely involves talking to each other sweetly, this exchange seems to hint at a lack of trust between Annie and Mae–trust that would presumably exist between two best friends. Because Annie spies on Mae, she gains private information about her best friend that causes her to make a bad judgement about two coworkers she does not directly deal with. In other words, invading Mae’s privacy causes Annie to become too intertwined in Mae’s personal issues, which just exacerbates the situation. In this situation, what links Annie and Mae together is not friendship, but problems; this unhealthy kind of relationship leads to more problems, like the lack of trust between the two friends.

At first Emma is really exited to see Adam, until he introduces her to Vanessa. Emma is not willing to admit she has feeling for Adam because she doesn’t want to get hurt. This reviles that Emma has developed feeling for Adam as being more than just friends. They chat for a bit about how Emma has just moved to L.A. to intern at a local hospital. And quickly things begin to get awkward and no one is saying anything.

Distance or time change relationship so if they would have kept in touch, they could have kept their friendship balanced. They forget about each other and they go on living their own life, like they have never been in each there’s life in any way. For a friendship to work both parties need to put in effort in order for it to flourish and remain intact.
