Bad Ass Bitch Life Lessons; Wednesday, First Period [01/29].

[died8yearsago]

The projector was there and ready to go when class got started, but it wasn't on yet, because they had other stuff to cover first and it made way more narrative sense to put that all in the OCD today than in the main post. So Rosa was just leaning on the desk a little as she waited for everyone to get settled in, and then she got started.

"So," she said. "Last week, you were all told to go out and learn something new for yourselves, and before we get into our next bright glowing gem of wisdom, you're going to share with the class what you learned. Easy, right? Who's going first? Throatpuncher? Farmer's Almanac? Punctuation?"

Someone should, anyway. Rosa was hoping at least few of these were going to be pretty good.

Today's Lesson - BABLL, 01/29.

And once anyone in the class who wanted to share had the opportunity (and Rosa at least had a few regrets about the assignment, no doubt), she turned her attention to the projector and let out a huff of a breath in preparation for whatever it was going to give them.

"Alright," she said, "here goes this week's lesson."

She turned it on, and across the board was another comic that was just as much news to Rosa as it was to her students:

"You've got to blaze your own trail...
It's the only way you'll get any peace and quiet."

And Rosa may have just snorted, slightly.

"You know what?" she said, after a moment. "That's pretty true. Do your own thing. Screw everyone else. They're just loud and obnoxious and dumb, anyway. And you know what? We're gonna do that. Hope you brought your coats," she herself was already moving to grab hers draped over the desk's chair, "and some comfortable shoes, because we're now going for a hike in the preserve."
