A Sunny Place for Shady People

When I tell people I live in Las Vegas, the first thing I usually hear is "Lucky!" But no, it's probably one of the worst places to live. It's not like The Hangover at all. Okay, sometimes it's like The Hangover, but not everyday. Maybe like once every few years.
Vegas is actually one of America's most unhappiest cities. It's hard for a lot of people to find jobs, friends, and places to live. For me, the hardest thing is finding real friends. People that aren't going to stab you in the back to get ahead. I honestly can not wait to get out of this town. I left for a year, but I went to the wrong place. But I think that where I am now in life will make leaving this place a lot easier. Even though part of my family is here, I'm not close with them and rarely speak to them. When I moved out of state the first time, I missed my sister so much. Now I don't really communicate with her, so it's not a big deal.
 I think raising Anakin out of Vegas will make him a better person overall. I don't even talk to some of my "best friends" because I don't want the way they act to rub off on my or Anakin. You can say that I'm snobby, but I've tried to hang out with all kinds of people. Christians, popular people, stoners, preps, overacheivers and slackers. Every single one of them have stabbed me in the back. Now I just prefer to be alone. I don't want that for Anakin. I want him to have friends, that he'll have for the rest of his life. I want Anakin to be a good person. I don't want him to be a backstabber or have to deal with a revolving door of them.
He'll for sure get a better education. Las Vegas has a ridiculously high droput rate. I want him to be able to have a good chance of getting into college and not feel lost like I did. I grew up so fast, I want Anakin to enjoy being a kid longer than I did. I smoked my first joint at twelve. I don't want him to have to deal with that. I know I can't keep him away from that kind of stuff forever, but I think living somewhere else will take away a little bit of the peer pressure I had. If only just a little.
 I know that getting out of Las Vegas will give him a better shot at life. I want him to be happy.

Oh and we have mole people here as well.
