WORLDWIDE Studying International Relationships
Written by Florencio R.M
Page what? The pages are little kids who are in charge of the communication of a committee, giving the delegate's notes and questions to other delegates to the chair. They are from fifth to sixth grade of elementary school.
TECMUN? It is a simulation of a Unites Nations Forum, with its different committees. Each committee has its own topics of debate, which are discussed for 3 days by high school delegates in order to get to a possible resolution based in real information.
How is it done? There's a whole organization with non-sleeping days, missing homework and not going to classes behind TECMUN. The organizers call the schools to invite them to come to TECMUN months before it, blurbs, carpets, writing blocks, placards, and gametes are done with anticipation, for us and for the delegates, and finally all work finish after the ending/prizegiving ceremony.

Why I chose this? When I was in fifth grade if elementary school, I went to an event called TECMUN at Tec of Monterrey as a page. At the beginning I didn't understand for what it was, but I knew that I when I grew up I would like to debate and represent my country in the world. Then I enter to high school and I become a former delegate, a delegate that now had to search a lot of information in order to represent in a right way his given country. It took me a little time to get used to it, but at the end I loved it. Many other friends win prizes with the form of a hand grabbing a world and then they went saying that they won TECMUN, but for me, the best prize I could get from a TECMUN model was knowledge and strategies to defend my ideas over every body else opinion because, at the end TECMUN is just a game where you learn how to say your ideas and how to defend them.

How TECMUN influenced me for studying International Relationships
Things needed for being an excellent delegate
Many people have told me that I won't find job anywhere if I study this but they will be surprised when they know that an internationalist find job faster than an engineer or economist, due to the lack of internationalists. They work in the embassy, in the government or in any enterprise. An economist tells you what and how many to sell, an internationalist tells you what people need and how to convince them to buy your product or defend your countries position in an international forum.
Delegates are in charge of making a committee working or not, because of that, I'll give som tips for being a good one: • Search for fresh and real info. • Don't share your ideas, unless
the chair asks you to. • Be sure about your info and
show strength and determination while talking. • Make the other delegates being
in agreement with what you say. • Do not mess up with the chair. • Make quick and unexpected
questions. • Write your proposals before the
days of the model. But always remember that TECMUN needs teamwork, so do not only think in you, but in everybody, because you're representing a country,and countries together work better than radicals and isolated, so have fun and don't go just to win, but to learn something new.
To achieve my goal, all I need is to keep learning more foreign languages (I know French and a bit of Deutsch) and to keep learning things from TECMUN, traveling and learning other cultures traditions. My dream is to become sub secretary at TECMUN, or if the chance is given, being General Secretary. With either of both, I'll learn how to manage people in masses and how to be a good boss and a good leader. Since I'm in fifth grade I have wanted to study this, sometimes I got away from it, but now I this dream return and I won't let it go, not now that I'm in constant touch with it.

BUILDING MY
Written by Kristina Urias
DREAMS Architecture?
Since childhood I have seen how my parents always complain about any little mistaken detail in the houses we visited when we wanted to buy our own house. Since that moment I decided that I wanted to design a perfect home or at least from the point of view of my parents, in order for them not to complain about any detail and for being proud of me. For the simple fact that I would give the house to my parents as a gift, then I start thinking that I could be able to create my own construction company which nowadays I still want to create.
From the moment that I promised myself doing a perfect house for my parents, I got stuck in dream where I built the most amazing house and that is why I want to study architecture, in order to build the

dreamed house of my parents and of any other person (including myself).
As most parents do, mine's opinion was that as any child, I was going to change my mind and I would choose any other career, but what really happened was that with the pass of years I loved more and more architecture and I never thought in being other thing than an architect when I grew up.
How will I convert myself into an architect? I will study here at TEC of Monterrey the career of architecture when I get out of the high school. It takes 5 years divided in 10 semesters of learning and loving more and more the architecture. Because of that, afterI get out, I will dedicate myself to working hard and making me a reputation. After this I will return to TEC of Monterrey to study a master degree in Modern Designs and New Building Technologies. With this, I will be able to have an excellent curriculum to show in my work interviews. Work interviews? Yes, many and many work interviews due that I don't like walking in my own steps, because of that I won't work twice for any company if I don't get any improvement. Finally, I will be able to build the perfect house for my parents, but most important, I will be able to construct my own perfect house for my familiar and me.

I HAVE TO LEARN TO DO THE FOLLOWING:
LEARN HOW TO DRAW (IN A PRETTY WAY)
MAKING 3D MODEL (NOT BUYING THEM)
CONSTRUCT AN AMAZING MODEL (LIKE THE ONE ABOVE)
WATCHING FROM THE TOP OF A SKYSCRAPER Written by Brian Arnaiz
Why architecture? It's a simple question, a great part pd the history of mi family is based in architects, my principal inspirations are my grandmother and my father, also I love buildings. Not just the big ‘A’ type of buildings or projects, but every little thing from every where I go. I go somewhere and start looking at materials, form, massing, lighting, etc. If I take a trip somewhere, I start by planning it around the buildings I want to visit. Probably 90% of all the books I buy (not including children’s titles) are about architecture – I even put them on my Christmas list.
"I want to make of Mexico a place full of innovation and fashion at the same time, so they remember me as If had built the Independence Angel, but more"
It is an evolving career that needs to be constantly studied and that requires
FBTVKT

Next Leaders of the World the architect to keep fresh in terms of technology and modernity. It does not stay static. In the other way, I like making things by my own and following my own rules, and as an architect I would have the freedom to be my own boss and to create art that express my personal style without any rude comment against it. Without stop thinking that the perfection is in the details. An architect can also impact its client's life in a good way, making a great house or building and making his client know how it was built in order for the client to appreciate the architect's work.

The buildings that I love
Building skyscrapers Since a long time ago I've been learning things that an architect need, so all that I should do at the moment is to concentrate in learning maths and then I'll go to the university were I want to study architecture. School itself doesn't matter due to the respect that an architected has just by saying his career. The school in this case doesn't plays a really important role because what makes an architect famous and admired is the style it express in its creations and not just a degree title that says he comes from one or another university. Also, as an architect you need to experiment with different materials and technologies to make your creation a piece of art that will be admired and recognized for years and years by all the world or by some clients, it doesn't matter, what really matters is that the people that see your building keeps it in mind and like it. Architects convert the imaginary things into something tangible, and most of the times, something new and good looking. What I would like constructing are "A" type buildings in Mexico due to the lack of innovation that my country has. If houses were given to me for construction, I would have no problem, but tall buildings like skyscrapers are the love of my life. Building a Burj Khalifa in Cancun may sound crazy and insane, but it is one of my goals when I grow up, building a huge skyscraper in any part of Mexico (specially in touristic areas). But as architecture offers lots of different areas of jobs, such as designer or manager of projects, and in many market sectors such as residential,civic, retail and hospitality, once you get your professional title of architecture you never stop being it, doesn't matter your area of specialization or the age, you'll always be it. Also thinking to not look to the floor neither if the stars are above your foot.
FBTVKT
"This buildings show power and luxury as much as possible, and are amazing to watch and I think it would be amazing to build one of them, like my father done, that is why I chose architecture, to build unbelievable constructions that are admired for centuries and that are example and inspiration for others."

CARMEN DELL'OREFICE Immortalized by fashion Interview with Carmen Dell'orefice (made by Brian Arnaiz) Even in pajamas, slowed by arthritic pain and with half her hair in rollers, Carmen Dell'Orefice, 81, commands attention. Sleek and straight-backed, with enormous cat-eyes and a cloud of silver hair, she is impossible to look away from. Before the camera, she unselfconsciously pulls dozens of exaggerated faces, throws her head back, mimes laughter, extends her arms elegantly, or uses them to frame her face like an exquisite sculpture. The effect is wildly melodramatic - even a little eccentric - until you see the stills; each a moment of striking engagement. "It's like watching an old Hollywood actress," says sleepwear designer Peter Alexander, who is in New York overseeing a photo shoot of the octogenarian supermodel for his Mother's Day catalogue. "She doesn't miss a frame." Alexander says he has been "infatuated with her for five years", but only recently considered they might work together. "She's a survivor in an industry that is so youth-oriented," he says, hoping the association will position his own designs as "ageless classics". Dell'Orefice is inevitably described as the world's oldest - and longest-working - model, having been steadily employed since the age of 13. Her first Vogue cover (of six) was shot in 1947, when she used to rollerskate to bookings, and she is still gracing Paris's couture catwalks 66 years later. Two days after we meet, she will be in Paris, stealing the show in a bridal tuxedo for French designer Stéphane Rolland. Her name is synonymous with luxury brands, including Rolex and Hermès, and she has been photographed by every legendary fashion photographer of the 20th century. She has razor-sharp cheekbones and fine skin. Her eyes are captivating; a bright, light blue. She is tall and graceful, but when we meet her knees are a source of such "searing discomfort" that she moves with some difficulty. She wears hearing aids. "These are about three months old on me and both batteries are f...ing dead," she says, with some residual Queens sassiness. Her motivation to keep modelling remains simple: she likes what she does and appreciates the collegiality. "It brings me in touch, as a single person, living on my own." Her resilience can partly be attributed to her early years as a dancer, and to modelling, each of which taught her to be "too good at overlooking discomfort - a dangerous thing". "I'm just fascinated, all the band-aids I've had to use in my life work. I should have been dead long ago, starting from the feet up and the ovaries and a hysterectomy ...", she says, referring to her long list of injuries and operations over the years.
While still a teenager, she submitted to hormone injections, paid for by magazine publisher Condé Nast, to bring on puberty, which had been delayed by illness and dance training. These days, when people inquire whether she's had cosmetic surgery, Dell'Orefice responds, "Please, I fix everything I possibly can." She is about to undergo simultaneous knee implants, "so that I can toe dance again, you see ... We're living so long - I'm planning over 100. And to live as pain-free as possible physically and as whole as possible." Does she plan a retirement anywhere in there?

"I'm going to ask you a question," she replies. "Would you consider stopping breathing?" There is a "make do and mend", Depression-era practicality in Dell'Orefice's refusal to retire. She was born into hardship on Welfare Island (now Roosevelt Island) in New York's East River, in 1931. Her Hungarian dancer mother was 19, her Italian violinist father, 39. The marriage was tempestuous and broke down several times, eventually leaving Dell'Orefice alone with her mother, who occasionally dropped her into foster care when times became too hard. Dell'Orefice took it all in her stride and thinks young people today have an overblown sense of entitlement. "Being a single mother it's as if it's new," she says. "But this thing of children divorcing their parents ... people forget to be human first, they get into all kinds of esoteric ideas of law and what they're entitled to. I grew up the real way. I worked for everything and I saw my mother work - it's not a dirty word." Although she thanks her father for her bone structure, from her mother she learnt practical skills, including cooking, upholstering and sewing. Presumably, she also inherited a certain unstoppable force. "Every time my mother couldn't pay the rent, they kicked us out, we'd move on," she says, reciting a list of working-class neighbourhoods: Woodside, Sunnyside, Bayside, Flushing. "By the time I was 12, we ended up at 900 Third Avenue, opposite my nemesis's building; opposite Bernie Madoff." But more on that later. During a cross-town bus ride to dance class, shortly after a year of being bedridden with rheumatic fever, Dell'Orefice was spotted by the wife of Harper's Bazaar photographer Herman Landshoff. Test pictures followed - she was deemed "unphotogenic" - but a seed had been planted in the mind of an ambitious child. Dell'Orefice's godfather contacted a friend at Vogue, beauty editor Carol Phillips, who brought her in for more shots. The result was a seven-page spread and the launch of her career. "I loved getting out of the cold-water flat," she says. "We didn't have a telephone, so Condé Nast would have to send a runner over, and up four flights." At 14, she modelled topless for Salvador Dalí - an introduction made by the English photographer and designer Cecil Beaton. The Spanish artist paid her $12 an hour - an improvement on the $7.50 she was getting for editorial work - and "he never touched" her. By age 15 she had appeared on the cover of Vogue. The "laundry list" of photographers she has worked with is stunning: "[Erwin] Blumenfeld and [Horst P.] Horst and Beaton, [Constantin ] Joffe and [Irving] Penn and Frannie McLaughlin-Gill ... I tell you, I've worked with everybody." That roll-call also includes Richard Avedon ("A new kid on the block - I'd already been used goods by the time he got to me") and Norman Parkinson, with whom she had an affair and who restored her confidence at 41 after bumping into her at a party, commenting she was looking good "for an old bag". They shot pictures for French Vogue together and her career took another leap forward. Looking back on those early days, Dell'Orefice explains she was born into her career as the industry itself was being born after World War II; that there were only a few girls on all the jobs and no one was given the kind of star status models now command. "I don't know that it was anything, except that I could bring home money to my mother and she could stop working and she would stop hitting on me," she says. When Dell'Orefice and her peer Suzy Parker (Avedon's muse and a face of Chanel) went to Europe to model in the parades, they'd take a sewing machine with them to make their own evening gowns to attend parties.
If Dell'Orefice now appears to conduct herself with any hauteur, it is simply the mark of experience. If the energy in the room lags or becomes scattered, she takes control; assuming the responsibilities of the stylist, or restoring the photographer's status, which is currently being chipped away at by half-a-dozen onlookers with camera phones. "I've lost patience with people who let themselves be used or infringed upon," she says. Women, she goes on, have the right "to control their environment for themselves". This she knows more than a thing or two about, having been cheated out of her life savings by Bernard Madoff, whose Wall Street investment firm was exposed in 2008 as a gigantic Ponzi scheme. She doesn't beat up on herself for losing the money, though. (After all, it was not the first time, having lost everything before on the stock market in the 1980s and '90s.) "A lot of people around me were really staggeringly rich, which I never have been," she says. "I walked in between the raindrops of real money, but I've stayed happy."

Norman Levy, her late boyfriend who died in 2005 aged 93, was a close friend of Madoff; it was at Levy's behest that she invested all her money with the fraudster. She no longer lets herself be put upon by men. "Don't fall in love," she tells me, quite sternly. Falling in love, she points out, is a most unpleasant sensation. "The real thing is to be in love - and that is quite a challenge." Her passion - attributable, she says, to her European heritage - has been known to get her in trouble. "You know, Italian-Hungarian," she says. "No matter how linear and cool I look on the outside, I have all that energy trying to find its way through life." She laments the legacy that has relegated sex "People miss the richness of part of it - if you is there," she says. "It wave that starts way then finally hits on
of Puritanism in the US to being "a dirty word". wonderfulness of the relationships, and sex is choose it; if the affinity can be like a wonderful out in the ocean and shore and is fabulous."
She was "always one to observes, and to this have a love interest. "I and I don't have a set should be," she says. "I the dance of need, it's geographically
have crushes", she day claims to always love my relationships idea of what they live out what is there, daily, weekly, yearly, if possible ..."
It is just as well she doesn't have a conventional view on romance, I reflect, as she recounts how a recent relationship inspired the man she was seeing to return to his former girlfriend. "He called me and said, 'I just realised how much I loved her and I have a ring in my pocket and if she'll have me, I'm going to marry her'," she says. Wasn't that galling? "I was thrilled for him ... And that's a friendship and memories I'll have forever." Her marriages seem to have been less fortunate, although she is not one to bear grudges. "I've been married three times by choice," she says. "By love." At 16, Dell'Orefice fell for William Miles, variously described as a playboy and entrepreneur. She terminated several pregnancies during their courtship, determined not to "entrap" him, but gave birth to their daughter Laura after they married, when she was 21. (Laura is now a therapist in California.) She bought Miles racehorses, he cheated on her, and they were divorced by the time she was 24. Her second husband, Richard Heimann, was a photographer she met through work. For him, she purchased a studio and paid for his director's card to become a cinematographer, but the marriage failed. She met third husband Richard Kaplan, a young architect, at a dinner party. She reduced her workload after they married, a decision she suspects hastened the end of their relationship. He was ungenerous about their age difference, criticising her body and plucking out a grey hair when they lay in bed together - an audacious gesture she credits with inspiring her to let her hair go entirely grey. Dell'Orefice's extraordinary looks, in her opinion, are not the secret of her success, anyway. It is due to the way she responds to whoever is looking at her. "I understood that synergistic dance between photographer and object - muse, if you will, model, whatever you call us," she says. "It's that silent language of communication, like being psychic with each other." On this topic - energetic exchange - Dell'Orefice says that she believes "in an energy world - we're all energy. Thoughts are held in the energy world. Energy goes to energy. Nothing is lost. Nothing is gained. It only changes shape and form." This belief system - nothing is lost, nothing is gained - is the key to her rare equanimity and refusal to dwell in the past. "I don't live for stuff and things, and if I had to live in a cardboard box, I would put curtains on it." With that, after an unrelenting day of posing and being photographed, she cheerfully throws a bright red scarf and stylish winter coat over her Peter Alexander pajamas to make the trip uptown to her apartment. "I'll give my doorman a thrill," she says.

How am I going to achieve being an architect? I would have to and I will go to a good university in order to study architecture.

I like thinking that one day I will be able to make the plans and then build my own house, where my family and I will live happy, surrounded by lots of dogs. I love classic styles, but my house would be a modern style house, with glass walls and with lots of lightbulbs inside it. Outside it would have a little road of wood and the rest would "It is really emotive for me, because building houses for the people is like helping them to make their wishes come true" be grass.
