MS. BEAN

If you might think that the only Bean in this world is Mr. Bean, then let me be the one to introduce to you the first ever living Bean woman, MS. BEAN. You may not know her well but when you have a chance to be with her all-day long, you won't regret it except that you will end up holding your stomach because of so much fun and enjoyment.

Only in 2004, when I was a 1st year high school student, had I met her. We were classmates then but made only few conversations because we were not that close with each other. I had no notice of her being a person with high spirit and sense of humor but a person who is very serious.

Now, I have notice the true her. We are still classmates and that we have now a great time to spend the whole day giggling, talking and laughing with all our might until we vend up holding our own stomach, as what I have just expected. There are times that I just can't stop, can't keep on laughing. You know why? If the best asset of Mr. Bean is his strange voice, Ms. Bean's best asset is her laughter. Upon hearing her first laughter, I was stunned and burst into more laughter. It was the strangest yet ridiculous laughter that I've never heard before. She told me that she's trying to get rid of it and have a new one because it's funny, she said but she can't. I told her that it's alright, and that I encouraged her by saying, "The more you laugh, the funnier it would be." But even though I am now immune with it, let me tell you that I couldn't sleep at night without reminiscing the time she laughed and she did it. I couldn't help on smiling whenever I am doing this because I feel great and proud that I befriended Ms. Bean.

Just like Mr. Bean, my little (as I described her because she's short) yet beautiful friend Ms. Bean is always in trouble. On one instance, when we were practicing Florante at Laura, she proved her carelessness by carelessly stepping on one, not, two of the bottles we had prepared for the music. Obviously, they were broken. We were terrified by the loud banging of the bottles unto the floor but when I looked at her, she sai9d with laughter on her eyes and smile on her face, "Sorry!" and laughed. We were all laughing then and there was more laughter when she laughed. There are still many funny experiences of her to be told. One of these is when her laughter became the reason why our teacher chose her and asked her something. It happened to be that her motto's 'Laughter is the best medicine' because after answering, she laughed again.

I will not make this so lengthy that I'll manage to tell you all my accounts with her. Oh! I'm so sorry. I enjoyed so much letting you know my friend Ms. Bean that I haven't told you her name. Well, she's Allana Mae D. Muñoz of II- Palma. She's a member of TauGama, not the fraternity kind but the one she herself had established, the "Taung Gagmay" Group.
