Badass Women You Should Know- Monday- 2nd period

[gobrookeyourself]

"Good morning, everybody," Brooke greeted the students once class had started. "My name's Brooke Davis, and this is Badass Women You Should Know. History is filled with women who did awesome things or created some of the stuff that makes up the way life is today, and we don't hear enough about them. We'll be focusing on history from around the world here, by the way. Like Earth, current day 2018. I'm kind of new to teaching and I'm going to be learning as I go with this, I don't know if I can find out about a ruler from another world on Wikipedia. But if there's someone from your neck of the woods who should be covered, talk to me and maybe we can work out an extra credit thing.

"So!" she went on. "We're starting easy today, with introductions before you're sick of them. I want your name and where you're from, and someone who inspires you, even if it's like your mom. And if you have a woman that you definitely want to see covered in this class, name her. Let's start with you."

"I'm Vette," Vette said, looking and sounding maybe still a little bemused about this whole 'actually in a classroom' thing. "I've been hanging around Nar Shaddaa a lot these days, and as for someone who inspires me?"

She tilted her head, considering. Risha? Her mother?

"One of my friends back home, Taunt. She's unstoppable. Confident. Brave. Has no qualms about doing what needs to be done as she sees it. She's the kind of person I kind of wish I was."

"I kind of feel like that's the kind of person most of us wish we could be," Brooke admitted.

And Taunt was gorgeous, to boot. Vette was kind of jealous of her, all told, though she'd never say so out loud.

"Something to aim for, I guess," she said, a little wryly. "We should all be so lucky."

"Sure. But that there's ever a thing wrong with who you actually are," she added. Being inspiring!

So inspiring! Vette smiled a little at that.

"That's sweet," she decided. "But nothing wrong with setting some goals for self-improvement either, right?"
