A recent development in Alana's life has led her to enroll in a new school. Initially, Alana embraced this change with enthusiasm; however, her excitement waned upon discovering that the institution requires uniforms. To accommodate this requirement, Alana is requesting an Amazon gift card to purchase two pairs of pants, three shirts, and a sweater. She plans to change her clothes after school while remaining compliant with the dress code.
