KG Notes
<Mariel D. Dueñas> |
 |
Of pendants, mini-rings, & class/company jackets |
Wearing the insignia of their class and the instution makes one feel proud because these penchants emanate the ideals, beliefs, tradition and survival - all the blood, sweat and tears of your cadet.
They also make you feel closer to your cadet, since he is wearing almost the same thing. But when you're in PMA, take the saying, "if you've got it - flaunt it" in a different light. You're already there so no need to shout to all the visitors & cadets "I'M A KAYDET GIRLLL!!!" diba? Nobody's saying that you shouldn't wear them when you decide to grace Lorenzo Hall or Boodle Bar, but a lot of kaydet girls (older ones!) are saying that it's better if you keep it at a minimum visual level. But in the end, it's really up to you.

| "Bok, siya ba si (any girl's name), yung tumatawag sa yo palagi?" |
If you see a cadet and his kaydet girl arguing somewhere in Plaza 63 after being greeted by his mistahs, it's probably because this line was uttered. Never knowing how this famous line came about, remember to always take it in jest. Anyway, there are more bola lines from a course that most of them aced, Bolahizing 101 (the term coming from one of the officials whom i got to chat on-line before). So just learn to smile amidst everything. Even if it were true (which is unavoidable), you're the one who's he with right?

| The 5 Minute Phone Call |
The fact - with a ddd activated phone, it would take 30 seconds to dial a PMA trunk line number and get connected.
The sad truth - there are probably more or less a million other girlfriends, friends, and family members doing the same thing at the same time countrywide. So why don't you...
Get up at 5:15 am and start calling. The million others who usually call are cut down to probably one-fourth.
Be very friendly to the operator. A little friendliness would get you far, like say being allowed to wait till the line to (supply your own) company is open.
Know or ask to be prompted when they would have their inside barracks mess.
Try staying in Nakar when you have the resources and time. The best place to access an "inside call" line. Just please don't abuse the privilege!
Keep in mind their schedule - be it academics, drills and parades so that you will know when the best time to call would be. Be sensitive to these things. It will ensure that you and your cadet would have a great conversation even under 5 minutes flat.

When God Created the Kaydet Girl
<by Mariel D. Dueñas>
The good Lord was creating a model into His sixth day of overtime for a kaydet girl when an angel appeared. She said, "Lord you seem to be having a lot of trouble with this one. What's wrong with the standard model?"
The Lord replied, "Have you seen the specs on this one? She has to be completely independent, and possess the qualities of a very patient girlfriend of a cadet. She must be able to subject herself to the scrutinizing looks of his mistahs, and be able to carry on cheerfully in the absence of her boyfriend at times she needs him the most. She must be willing to meet her cadet whenever and wherever he gets a chance to go out on a duty or a privilege upon sudden notice. And most of all she must willfully embrace the ideals of her cadet's chosen life without question and with the same zeal."
The angel replied, "That's impossible."
The Lord answered, "Don't worry, I will make other kaydet girls to help her. And I will give her an unusually strong heart so it can swell with pride in her boyfriend's achievements, sustain the pain of separations, beat soundly when it is overworked and tired, be large enough to say "I understand" when she actually doesn't and say "I love you" regardless of antyhing."
"Lord," said the angel, touching his arm gently, "go to bed and get some rest. You can finish this tomorrow."
"I can't stop now," said the Lord. "I am so close to creating something unique. Already this model heals herself when she is sick, is used to waving goodbye to her cadet from a pier, a runway or a depot, and understand why it's important that he leave."
The angel circled the model of the kaydet girl, looked at it closely and sighed, "It looks fine but it's too soft."
"She might look soft," said the Lord. "But she has undeniable strength. You would not believe what she can endure." Finally the angel bent over and ran her finger across the cheek of the Lord's creation. "There's a leak," she announced. "It's a tear," the angel continued, "what is it there for?"
The Lord looked puzzled and softly said, "I did not put it there."
My Kaydet Girl
<LT Tirso G Fajardo, USMA Class '34>
On her lips was a smile my kaydet girl.
On her eyes are the stars above.
For her face is a poem of beauty.
Can you blame me, sweet, for falling in love?
Won't you come, dear, to me?
I'll shower you with a kiss on each raven curl.
Won't you come into my arms, dance to our song?
For I love you my kaydet girl
