Reading Notes: Literary Works, Alice in Wonderland Part A

The story "Down the Rabbit Hole" is the beginning of the Alice in Wonderland story and it is just like I remember. The story is very detailed and I could easily imagine the movie as I was reading the stories.
The first part of the story is Alice falling down the rabbit hole. Was she falling in slow motion or was she falling for a very long time? She wonders that as she continuously falls. She see object floating around her and tries to grab them and see what they are. She starts creating scenarios in her head and imagining things. Does she go crazy the farther she falls? Is this all a dream?
The whole time she was falling, she did not mention seeing the rabbit, but as soon as she landed on ground, she saw the rabbit hurrying away. Did the rabbit fall the same way Alice did?
The story then entered the part of Alice trying to get through the doors in the room where she fell. She found the small door but could not fit so she found the drink that said "drink me." Of course she drank it out of curiosity and shrank to a height of ten inches, just tall enough to fit through the small door. However, the silly girl was too busy gargling down the drink that she forgot the key to the small door on top of the (now) large table.
Naturally, she finds a glass box that has food in it labeled "eat me." I wonder if it is magic that the potion and food appear, or is it her imagination all along?
The little cake made Alice grown to an outrageous height of nine feet tall...
The story I remember, Alice eventually gets into the garden and then meets the caterpillar, but she met the caterpillar in the room that she is trapped in now.
