Hi there and welcome to T3, training together on Tuesdays. I'm Sarge, and with me are two ever prepared co-hosts, jamie and Tony, and we're here to learn from each other's tales, share tips and discover new tools. And in this episode, we continue to celebrate women and we are going to talk about always being prepared. So I asked you two, when you hear the words be prepared, what?
Toni:
comes to mind, Always be prepared right.
Jaymee:
Yes, always be prepared.
Toni:
For me it always will bring me back to the memories of my once in a lifetime experience of being a Girl Scout. This was in high school.
SaRGe:
Jamie, when you hear the words, be prepared what comes to mind.
Jaymee:
What I learned from my mom before when you're in a knock-sock, you'll be shocked. So for me, saving. So if you have savings, you'll be ready in the future. But we don't have that now, so it's not applicable to me. You didn't watch it, I was listening to it, but it's like I'm leaving. Yes, it's not true.
SaRGe:
That's right. I was thinking about be prepared. You know, there are a lot of reality shows like the Doomsday Preppers. That's what I was thinking Like.
Jaymee:
they have the background, the background the room and then they're stuck eating.
SaRGe:
So that's what I was thinking about when I prepared them, but of course, of course, there's a little bit of information. Today is March 12th and you know that in the US it is actually National Girl Scouts Day. Wow, nice to know. Antonio mentioned that you're a Girl Scout in high school. I'd like to know more about that unforgettable experience.
Toni:
Unforgettable because I remember that Actually high school and grade school, both. I remember that. But, I think the most memorable was high school. Because, you're a young adult, I remember that we were camping, not outdoor, but in school. We were camping in school because we didn't want to go somewhere else, so you know how parents could be very protective, so overnight in school grounds and then.
Toni:
I think what I remember the most really in my GS life, girl Scout life, was really the bonding that I had with my fellow Girl Scouts. It was like sisters. It was like that Girl Scouts. It was like there was an unspoken bond that you can be friends, you support each other, you can be friends with each other, but, of course, staying true to the Girl Scouts' principles, no, or values. Don't ask me questions that I can't remember.
SaRGe:
I remember that, as a Girl Scout and a true Filipino, I will be cleaning thoughts, words and deeds, compassionate, disciplined. Oh my God, I remember that.
Toni:
That's what you remember. That's the glistening sun there's a song right.
SaRGe:
We are the Girl Scouts, the RP Girl Scouts, members of the World, but we're not together.
Toni:
We're not together.
SaRGe:
We're not together.
Toni:
We're not together. We're not together.
SaRGe:
With every GSP comment.
Toni:
Release for God and Motherland.
SaRGe:
Yes, perfect Congratulations you got free number B. Oh, my God, you really remember. I remember the things I remember. There's a song. In the song there's a Girl.
Toni:
Scout my friend Sarge is really a.
Jaymee:
Girl Scout, you're the one who's heartbroken. I'm the only one who's heartbroken.
SaRGe:
You remember Girl Scout. When did you start Girl Scout? Grade school, high school?
Jaymee:
Grade school. So first I experienced that in school. So I had a feeling. But that's what we're all about. We're all about that. So it's a major event for us, and if you're not a member of the Girl Scout community, you're out of place.
Jaymee:
So we're all looking forward to it. We're very excited. We also did that in our school grounds, but our sleep was inside the classroom, so you assigned per section in your classroom or I was camping twice. So we had time to meet with Rashaful, because our Girl Scout is from grade 4 to grade 6. So Rashaful is our girl scout and, yes, you have a lot of new friends because you don't know each other from grade levels and when you cook, you can use your hands. We cook afritada adobo.
SaRGe:
We teach in Bonfire we teach in Bonfire.
Jaymee:
The highlight of the night was the roast of Marshmallow and the stories of the students in our school. On the fourth, floor were like that Behind the auditorium there were ghost stories. We were like let's go there and bring your flashlights. Ghost hunting Ghost hunting, but the memory of the girl scout was not connected to being a girl scout.
SaRGe:
But the memories.
Jaymee:
That's the truth. That's the happy I experienced. I hope my son will experience that in the future. Nice.
SaRGe:
We mentioned that before. Girl scouting is the anniversary of Girl Scouting today. It actually started in the US in 1912. The founder of Girl Scouts was Juliet Gordon Low. She was in the meeting and they had activities. Right now there are already 3.7 million Girl Scouts Way to go. Do you know who the founder of Girl Scouts is in the Philippines?
Toni:
I think I know her. I knew her once in my life.
SaRGe:
You guys are close. I'm sure that she is one of the people in the Luma 1000 Pesos Bill, the liquid of the 1000 Pesos Bill.
Toni:
She's there. Who is this? Is it something? It's Skoda.
SaRGe:
That's why we have a street somewhere in Manila, jls Skoda, named after the founder of Girl Scouts in the Philippines, sefal Yanes Skoda.
Toni:
She's from the Philippines, we have a phone in question.
Jaymee:
Okay, go, we have an investor, we have a good Girl Scouts, we can join them, we can join them.
Toni:
Are our names listed forever?
Jaymee:
Yes, If you have a girl scout, we can join them.
SaRGe:
That's right. Shoulder lens.
Toni:
That's right.
SaRGe:
Shoulder level Shoulder level Girl scout of the year.
Jaymee:
You are the one who will be the one to be the one to be the one to be the one to be the one. Sorry, share. I used to be a girl scout. I had a lot of girls scout.
Toni:
A lot of girls scout. They are the leader of the year.
Jaymee:
They are assigned to the rooms they will cook. Prefects, we are the ones who are the ones to be the one to be the one. Girls scout is the one. Who will be the one to be the one. She will be the one to be the one. She will be the one to be the one.
SaRGe:
I am not the one who will be the one to be the one to be the one. I was very shy growing up. That's why my parents encouraged me to join Girl Scouting. To build your confidence, I gave roles Non-speaking roles Like flag you will fall down. The boys scouts. The boys scouts. My role is when there is a girl scout activity, sometimes I am the one who will be the one to be the one to be the one. There is a fancy belt, then you will put the belt on. You will march.
Jaymee:
So that's, it.
SaRGe:
So that's the start of Bonfire. Again, all non-speaking roles. I appreciated it because I was a girl scout from grades 4 to 6. I was a part of the award of Girl Scout of the Year. Thank you for watching Girl Scout for three years. She showed leadership potential. I'm sure I passed the tests and then I was the best medalist Wow.
Jaymee:
The girls scout of the year.
SaRGe:
The medal of the girls scout of the year came from the girls scout council. She didn't do school, the school medal was different. She was the one who was the medalist, but mine was the Olympic medal.
Toni:
Because you are the one who is the most important.
SaRGe:
It's not like you are the most important, but what I appreciated about my experience. Yes, I did gain confidence. There are a lot of things I can do. For example, I can start a fire. I saw non-speaking roles, that of course there was no gas. You are going to burn the firewood. There was a pie, a paper, a post-pro. The light was not on when the post-pro was on. I was sorry. I appreciated it because I learned to eat there, but at least during my time I didn't use rice cooker. So with a measure, I measured it with my hand. Then I saw that I can do something because she is very shy. There are a lot of people like that. I was able to go to a camp somewhere in San Pablo City. There are a lot of places in San Pablo. We went there and we really saw tent.
SaRGe:
I remember that there was a check-up at night when you entered the tent. Of course, you girls will tell stories, but you also heard the scout master. He was already going to camp, but when he left he was already there. That's my fondest memories about scouting. Do you have any awards? What are your flexes?
Jaymee:
I'm happy when I won Best in Padjamas.
Toni:
Best in Padjamas. That's what you said.
Jaymee:
I'm not as far to be the girls scout of the year. I'm happy to get Best in Padjamas. I brought my mom's Silk Padjamas. One of my classic Padjamas is the one that was shaking my pants. I was wearing long sleeves Victoria's.
Toni:
Secret Padjamas.
Jaymee:
I was wearing it.
Toni:
I was at least wearing a silk padjamas. What was your most fanciest and posh night?
Jaymee:
wear. We were all wearing the same clothes. We were all wearing the same clothes.
Toni:
I was happy for you, Jamie. Congratulations on that award. I was so happy when I got to be the girls scout of the year. Congratulations to all the two. I can't remember if I earned any badges. There were badges on the top.
Jaymee:
We didn't have that in that time.
SaRGe:
We didn't have that.
Toni:
I didn't aspire for those badges, but maybe that was not really my priority. I was the most famous girl scout. Girl scouting days, co, was really how to interact with your sister. Yes, yes, you're on your own the back of the camp, or you have, because it's a club also salmon casino nesos.
SaRGe:
Extra curricular.
Toni:
I don't know if it was every Friday or two Fridays in a month. You get to see them, get to spend time with them. It's really like a lesson for me on how to socially interact. You know you're not a batchmate. It's all in my higher years and my lower years. So how do you know how to get up there, how to be socially socialized?
SaRGe:
Yeah, so I guess that's what my parents song is. It runs in the family Because there are two sisters who are older than me. They were like that. They were girls cut of deer too. So I know I'm very shy. I'm very shy growing up, but I was also very competitive it's like a weird combination of shy and competitive, or you can say it in your eyes Because I want to be like my sisters. So that's why I know, because during my time it's not required, Unlike the one I saw in my son. He was required for grade 3. That's their extra curricular activity. They were all boys cut during grade 3, but during our time he was voluntary. So if someone was reading clubs, sports clubs, music clubs, I was called Girl Scout. I wanted to be like my sisters. I guess that also fueled me to become Girl Scout of Deer, Because I wanted to be like my sisters.
Toni:
So that's your challenge.
SaRGe:
That's my challenge. I'm a silent worker.
Toni:
And it runs in the family Jamie.
Jaymee:
That's right, that's right.
Toni:
You have different objectives.
SaRGe:
My sister, the one who lives in Bacalad, Anna Jamie, met. She was even sent to Hong Kong for an international camp.
Toni:
There are jamboree, jamboree.
Jaymee:
I didn't experience it because it's out of school now. My parents are afraid of me.
SaRGe:
At least from what I remember. You get to join that jamboree when I was a Girl Scout in high school. My high school was different from my club. That's my Girl Scout story. But having all these hearing all our experiences and sharing all our experiences, do you realize that Girl Scouting is actually young adulting? When we're not adulting, we're already adulting. For example how to relate with friends, building confidence, etc. What lessons have you learned from Scouting that we still apply today?
Toni:
I think I'd say in Girl Scouts we were taught how to be independent, how to have a mind of your own, how to also be mindful of others. It's the self and the others. That's the impression I got from the Girl Scouts. So Don't expect others to do what they can do. If you need help, then go to the rightful people who can help you. I think the best lesson I got from growing your independence and being mindful of being of help to other people.
Jaymee:
I'm with Tony.
SaRGe:
I learned how to take care of my own things.
Jaymee:
You have to bring your things during camping. You can do whatever you want. You can do whatever you want. You can do whatever you want. You can learn how to cook rice, how to cook vegetables, how to cook vegetables, how to cook vegetables. I'm used to somebody doing things for me. We're used to having a house at home. I appreciate the experience. You have to create something. You can use the toless towers around the campus, you learn how to collaborate, teamwork and adapt to the demands of your friends.
SaRGe:
I learned independence from the idea of raising rice. That's my goal. I'm confident in building my own house. I feel like I can't do that. I can do that when I'm on a camping trip.
Jaymee:
I'm confident in building my own house.
SaRGe:
I'm confident in building my own house. I found that useful. I remember the tourniquet what do you do? What do you do Really? Yes, then be prepared. Like, for example, you use it completely. So you know whatever you have in your book, whatever you don't use it as a teacher, you know that you don't use it as a teacher. You have a foresight. Yes, so that's it. I always have a sheet of paper.
Toni:
Always hand-to-hand, always hand-to-hand.
SaRGe:
Yes, then I think I'm sorry and I'm speaking of so. I guess Girl Scouting also taught me to be entrepreneurial. Since I shut my country down and did my purpose. I did it like this, but I couldn't stop thinking it's like buying 1FJ of paper. What I did was I bought 1FJ. I would think of my classmates to buy 1FJ, so at least they don't have a problem when they have a quiz they will look at everything in my direction.
SaRGe:
Then they will release a paper Because the requirement is to go to school for 1 or 2, but I will go for 10. I am very prepared. I am also called the National Bookstore Award. I have a highlighter, a ball pen and a penstee. I guess that's what stuck to me to always be prepared In relation to training, being on your toes whatever happens in the training class, brown, and that it will continue.
SaRGe:
That's my first career. I was a showbiz in the social business industry. Now, at that time I didn't have much cable, so I had to show you. The show must go on. It's related to the girl scouting. So, to end this episode, I do encourage the parents of ladies, young ladies and even young gentlemen to really to really support the scouting movement, because they will really learn a lot of things Like, for example, we are not kids anymore, but we still remember and we look fondly on all our experiences in scouting. Okay, so you, what else? If there's? I'm especially for Jamie, and this is for Jamie and for Tony, for your parents. If you have a child or a son who wants to experience Jamie or your parents, tony, what do you want them to experience when they are doing Girl Scouts?
Jaymee:
That's what I want them to experience His excitement, the anticipation of doing things on her own and then making new friends. Because the personality of my child, she, is very outgoing. She is different from me, so she has a tendency to be a Girl Scout of the Year, so I hope that before she is the one who will be the one, to be the one that's it, but of course because you are an overachiever.
Jaymee:
She is the best in Padjama Girl Scout of the Year, of course of course I will buy her a silk padjama because she can't be the best in Padjama in the future.
Toni:
Continuous legacy right.
Jaymee:
Continuous legacy, but you know she will be the best in Padjama and Girl Scout of the Year.
Toni:
So, yes. I think I would like them to really focus on themselves, Also learn that same independence. And you are like when you are a Girl Scout in school when there is an emergency or there is a tight situation, you are the one who will be the one to be, the one that you know what to do.
Toni:
You are the one who will be the forefront. That's how it is. So I want them to experience that, just like what Sarge said building that confidence, that leadership. If you need it, whether it's an ordinary situation or may it be a critical situation you know what to do and you come in there, you jump in there to help. That's what I want to develop in them.
Toni:
The readiness to help, willingness to help, ever ready to be there to lend a hand, and also they are able to relate to their higher ups and to the younger ones in their age. I want them to develop that, social skills, because you don't get that from an ordinary school life. You don't relate to the fourth year or the fresh ones, but in the Girl Scout movement you are all mixed up. And then the sisterhood. I want them to experience that Because it gives you a lasting imprint. The sisterhood, the help you see in the quadrangle or if you say, oh, girl Scout.
Toni:
So, hello, that's how it is, and then you help each other in whatever form there may be.
SaRGe:
Okay. So thank you for sharing that and for sure we have a lot of good memories from our scouting days and we also shared a lot, and we don't know that we are still adults.
