Bad Ass Bitch Survival Guide; Tuesday, Second Period [09/25].
There was another note on the classroom door, directing the students down to the gym, with another threat of the last one being a punching bag, but, truth be told, Rosa's plans involved everyone being equally punched. In a matter of speaking. She wasn't literally going to punch kids.
...well, maybe if they really deserved it.
Should they be worried about the mats being pulled out and covering the floor again? Probably not. All those baseball bats, though? Time would tell.
Rosa was standing in front of a table with an assortment of things on it, with a faint glint in her eyes daring anyone to say something about the small scratches on her cheek that any tracker could identify as belonging to a raccoon's claws.
"Alright," she sighed, climbing over that moment of dread that she felt at the start of every one of her classes, "so you guys are pretty young, right? I mean, unless any of you are some sort of weird immortal or ageless being, but for the most part, you're all young, you'll all at one point in your life get out there and party, and you'll probably get completely smashed and regret it in the morning. On the plus side, the younger you are, the easier it is for your body to recover. Older you get, the more you're going to feel it, so it's good to in some good habits now so it doesn't kick you in the ass later on. You can still have a good time and survive," see? Relevant to the class, totally appropriate topic for high school kids, "the next morning."
She might also have been inspired by her failed attempts to sober up some raccoons all day yesterday.
"Okay, so pregame. Eat high fiber foods, take some vitamin C. While you're drinking, clear liquors like vodka and gin are going to give you an easier morning than whiskey and rum. Sticking to one kind of drink," like, say, a whole bottle of whiskey, Rosa?, "can help you avoid as much of an upset stomach, remember to alternate your drinks with some water every once in a while. Afterwards, you're going to want to drink some more water, or something like Gatorade or Pedialyte for electrolytes or something, or fruit juice, because sugars are supposed to help burn alcohol. Bland carbs like bread or crackers can help soak up alcohol still in your stomach and fight nausea, ibuprofen can help with headaches, but don't make a habit of that, your liver's going to hate you.
"Sounds easy enough, right? Sure, when you're all straight and sober. A little trickier when you're under the influence. And since I think the administration would probably frown on me turning second period into day drinking, we're going to do some...simulated drunkenness, and see how well you can prep to avoid a hangover. When I say go, grab a bat, find a spot, bend on over and spin until I say stop. Then make your way over to the table here, pour yourself a glass of water, drink it, eat some crackers or a slice of bread, take two Skittles that'll be our stand in for ibuprofen, and one more drink of water. First one to pull it off to my standard gets to...I don't know, come see me and decide what we do next week."
She had no idea what would make a good incentive.
"Alright, any questions?" Or, what she was expecting more of, objections? "Anyone have any other suggestions? Let's go, get this over with, so we can all get out of here."

Listen to the Lecture - BABSG, 09/25.

And who knew? Maybe one of them had something that she herself hadn't thought of before. How's that for classroom synergy, right? Everyone learning from each other.
Class Activity - BABSG, 09/25.
Or don't. Considering Rosa won't even bother demonstrating, she's not going to make a big deal out of it. She mostly just wanted to see if anyone would.
Either way, the RNG says Sabine wins it, however she decides to go about it.
Talk to Rosa - BABSG, 09/25.
But she's here, sure, whatever.

Re: Listen to the Lecture - BABSG, 09/25.
Drinking? Sure. She could do this. She used to hang out with pirates.
... When she was, like, eight.
Re: Listen to the Lecture - BABSG, 09/25.
Granted, Sabine was probably one of the least likely to end up needing this.
Of course she's played by me so good luck there, kiddo.Re: Class Activity - BABSG, 09/25.
Might as well, right? There were mats, there was free candy in it, why not?
"Woop..."
The getting over to the table was going to be the fun part.
Re: Listen to the Lecture - BABSG, 09/25.
Vette... had no idea what school lessons were supposed to look like. But hey, this one seemed practical, at least.
Re: Listen to the Lecture - BABSG, 09/25.
Sorry, Sabine, it was going to happen and you don't get a choice in the matter.
Re: Listen to the Lecture - BABSG, 09/25.
Vette considered that one anyway. She was dubious about that at best, but hey, it was a good question all the same.
"... Then it's like coordination training," she decided. "With free candy at the end."
Re: Sign In - BABSG, 09/25.
Re: Listen to the Lecture - BABSG, 09/25.
"All right, I can go with that."
Re: Listen to the Lecture - BABSG, 09/25.
Vette just shrugged and gave Sabine a lopsided little smile.
"Never know when it'll come in handy."
And anyway, free candy.
