6. As a girl in such a class,

I was always aware of the pretty girl who seemed to have it all. She was an exemplary student. She was nice when she wanted to be, but also capable of incredible cruelty - manipulative, really. You never knew which side of her you would encounter, so all the girls had a fearful respect for her. Of course, she lived in a very nice house, in the wealthiest neighborhood. She was usually dressed well, brought in an enviable lunch each day and consistently the teacher's pet. But most notable: she was always popular - something I never understood.

Thank you for another wonderful post, H2O Man!
