The Hill, with a capital H.

I love this town. I have lived here now for 15 years, and it has truly been an incredible place to grow up. However, there is one problem with living here. High school sucks. This town is small enough, that everybody goes to the same Jr. High and High school. To some this might sound nice, and in some ways it is. The problem is, everybody sticks with the same friends they had in like 6th grade, when they started Jr. High school. This means, if you were a quiet, introverted person, then you have no friends. Till you graduate and leave town. Not fun right?
And it's not just that. If you try and make new friends or try to get a little more influence, you're automatically weird, for not being "normal." And then there's the rich kids. The city of rexburg sits on a big hill. Most of the city sits at the base of the hill, and then there are houses all the way up the hill and a water tower at the top. Also at the top of the hill is where the rich people live. I'm not going to sit here and bash on rich people, but I need to say one thing. The "rich" people and the "average people" live in completely separate worlds. there is virtually no connection between the two different types of people. Therein lies the problem. "The Hill" is insanely annoying, and the rich people basically run this town.
