The Life and Livelyhood of a Bean: Meeting Beitle Pokywarth


Here is Beitle.  She is fairly shy and nervous, but very kind.  Her voice is squeaky, spoken in a reserved, mildly confused manner.  Although she was frightened when we first met, she soon opened up and we were able to become friends. I'm positive that this friendship will continue to flourish and grow quickly as we spend this semester together.  She was originally fairly evasive and confused about where she is from and why she is here.  Eventually, she began to tell me that her nickname (from bullies) was Beany, earned by being the smallest bean in the group she originated from.  Sharing this information led me to wonder if she remembers more of her past than she originally told me.  It will be interesting to get to know her further and understand who she is under the surface.  Beitle is not one to just let her opinion be cast aside.  She is very polite, but will not be treated in any way unless knowing and understanding the reasons why she is treated so.
