Answer:

first person perspective

Step-by-step explanation:

The first, second, and third person perspectives are different ways of expressing our point of views on matters. The first person perspective are expressed with singular first person pronouns such as I, me, mine, myself, and my to talk about things that happened to us personally. They can also be expressed with plural first person pronouns such as We, ourselves, our, and us.

When point of views are expressed in the third person, pronouns such as, he, she, it, and they are used. When Alice made the statement above, she used first person pronouns such as I, and me to talk about an experience she had.
