Lucy Ayala Hi my name is Lucia Ayala, I am 16 years old and I was born in Anaheim, Ca. I attend to Salt Lake Center of Science Education. I feel truly blessed to be given the opportunity of being presented in the cover of this magazine. this experience has been un like any other surpassing any expectations I could have had. I am truly proud to be part of the cover girl family. I admit it was more then I expected I the beginning I was off to a rough start but with the help of the cover girl team I began to improve I grow closer to not only those who were instructing me but those who I would soon be competing against the instructor was unlike any other I have worked with before she knew exactly what to sa to me to recive the best results she gave me a new believe inn what I could achieve I used that new believe in myself to win the cover girl quinceañera completion it is true due to the fact that the instructor was so well that I became to believe that I wasn’t much of an obstacle for the others. Although I thought I wouldn’t be winning I was glad to be there knowing that even if I did not place I would be gaining this experience and improving myself . At a young age my father had past away everyday was a struggle but with the help of my mother, family and a couple friends I have become a better person that what had been expected. I thank them for their love and support. I would also like to thank the readers of cover girl for taking the time of reading what I have written. Mom I want to give you special thanks , I love you so much thank you for everything you have done with out you nothing that I have achieved would be possible . Lucy.

Studies show that people who graduate from high sch ool earn a lot more money wouldn’t even think of not over their life time than tho completing school in today’ se who do not. I s society. You hardly have a is like throwing more than chance of making it. Quittin $200,000 down the dra g school early in. An d that is just to start. Instead, next seven years of your life I encourage you to keep go will determine the quality of life for the rest of your life ing. The . (And perhaps, your childre n’s life too).

Just for you, we have searched the top 20 reasons to stay in school. And here they are… 1. More choices! A high school diploma is your first step toward choosing your own future. 2. More opportunity! The more degrees you have – from high-school to college and beyond – the more opportunity you’ll have. 3. More friends! School is where your friends are and where the fun is. Find friends who share your interests. JULY 2011–JAN 2012

4. More money! On average, people with high school diplomas earn about $9,200 per year more a year than dropouts. Over a 30-year career, that’s $276,000 more! 5. More fun! School isn’t just about, well…school. There are lots of opportunities to take part in sports, clubs and other activities. 6. More time! Dropouts often have to get more than one job to make ends meet. Who has time for that? 7. More to see and do! Dropping out is a good way to get stuck where you are – for life. If you want to get out and see the world, get a high school diploma.

8. Less trouble! Staying in school helps you stay out of trouble. Dropouts have a higher risk of getting pregnant or in trouble with the law. 9. Less work! It’s true. Staying in school is the best way to avoid low-paying jobs that involve hard manual labor. 10. A better future! High school dropouts are more likely than graduates to be unemployed, in poor health, living in poverty, on public assistance, and single parents with dropouts of their own. You can do better! Get On the Bus and stay in school. 11. It will make your parents proud. There is nothing better for a parent than receiving a diploma from you. Abuelita, your tios and all the family will know and will be so proud of you. 12. Guys prefer girls who have an education. Eventually in your life you will fell ready for a wedding. By finishing school, you will be in a better position to select your husband. A degree keeps you away from losers.

(Celebrating at Hom e) First and for most we do not recommend a house party. Unfortunately because of the economy going the way it is many people are canceling ballrooms and throwing house parties. If this is your situation don’t be embarrassed be thankful that you have parents that are willing to celebrate you giving the circumstances. And although is not what you expected, enjoy the spot light cause after all it is your time to shine. Basic rules in having a house party.

Rule number one Always check with your

neighbors, and maybe give them the option of attending. Checking with them will a sure you from having a police officer at your door step and shutting down your party.

Rule number two your house must be party ready. It could be possible that your house is in need of fresh paint in and outside. The reason why we recommend a paint job is so that your house feels welcoming and has a relaxed like atmosphere. After all nobody likes a dirty looking house.

LAREA : GUST AVO V IL

Rule number four decoration. Don’t be afraid to be creative with the decorations, you could get inspiration almost anywhere. Visit a party supply store and look up some ideas. Remember ask for help let them know your having a house party and how big the area is, so that they can help you with chairs, tables, etc. Don’t pretend that your house is a big ballroom and buy more than you need. Always recall that simplicity and clean are always better than a mess of different decorations.

fussy animal you better find a sitter for them, we would not want the animal to be jumping on guest especially if someone is afraid of them. Also make sure you safety proof your house. Ask your dad to be sure the house is secure for your guest you won’t want someone to be rushed to the hospital because you didn’t consider the possibilities.

Rule number three security. If you have a cute but

Rule number five food.

Oh yeah my favorite part! Food could be complicated and messy when it comes to serving it. So instead of having someone serving the food have a buffet table its quick and easy for your guest.

Rule number six the dance floor. Making a dance JULY 2011–JAN 2012

floor is easy and affordable. You will need a clean backyard with grass or dirt, a big wooden platform and linoleum to make it smooth. This will help you keep your shoes and dress dirt and grass free.

Rule number seven lights.

You must have light everywhere you wouldn’t want your guest tripping over things because they can’t see. Whether it is regular lighting or color lighting make sure there’s enough. Be creative when it comes to color lighting that’s what’s going to make the dance floor fun.

Rule number eight music. Music is an easy way to

entertain your guest that is why you must always beware of the volume. Make sure you let the DJ know the level of volume you want the music to stay during the party, so that you won’t have any surprises after all.

And lastly having your quince at home could be a great convenience, because after the party your aunts, uncles, and cousin could help put the house back together.

Perhaps one of the most difficult times for a quinceanera is giving a speech. A speech is an important part of your quince, because everybody wants to listen to you speak. Therefore it’s important to be prepared so you won’t let your nerves get the best of you. If you have stage fright or problems speaking in front of large crowds, well just develop a short and sweet speech that both your friends and family could appreciate. So how can you develop this speech without the stress? Here’s some help to make your speech short, sweet, and memorable.

Here are small samples of great speeches.“Quiero agradecerles a todos el compartir conmigo este día tan especial y esta fiesta tan linda, que no hubiera sido posible sin la ayuda de mis papás y mi familia. Gracias a todos y cada uno de ellos por su esfuerzo, su apoyo y su cariño. Los quiero mucho y los invito a seguir disfrutando del baile”.“No soy muy buena para decir discursos, pero sí quiero compartir con ustedes toda mi alegría por cumplir quince años rodeada de todas las personas que me quieren y a las que yo quiero igual. Agradezco a mi familia y amigos por haberme ayudado a hacer posible mi fiesta, que también es la de todos ustedes. Mil gracias nuevamente”.“Hoy es uno de los días más importantes y felices de mi vida y ahora que tengo la oportunidad de festejarlo junto a toda mi familia y amigos aprovecho para agradecerles su apoyo y cariño.

“Gracias por venir y ¡que viva la fiesta!” 14

Desde que llega a la vida, inclusive antes de nacer, desde el vientre de mamá, al saber que es niña pasan mil ideas por la mente de los padres: el nombre, a quien se parecerá, que estudiará, pero creo que lo que nunca falta en ese pensamiento de su pequeñita es sus XV años. Es la etapa más importante del desarrollo de una mujer, pues éstos marcan la pauta entre ser niña y mujer, donde las muñecas se hacen a un lado para darle paso a los maquillajes y el teléfono, los libros de pintar se trasforman en cartitas de amor, y el cerebro empieza a desarrollar sensaciones y pensamientos que de niñas ni hubiesen imaginado, entre ellos su primer amor.

Empieza el clásico celo de papá por las salidas y se entrelazan las uniones más fuertes con la primera amiga que se convierte en tu confidente y primer cómplice de lo que llamamos juventud. Cambios radicales que hacen que cualquier joven de 15 años empiece su florecimiento, que se engalana con la ceremonia religiosa de XV años, el vals con sus chambelanes y el primer vals con su padre que presenta ante la sociedad a su pequeña, para hacer su cambio de niña a adolescente, le realiza el cambio de zapatillas y corona a la princesa de su casa, a su niña que ese día deja de serlo para darle paso a una mujer que aunque seguirá creciendo. Jamás dejara de ser la niña de su casa , la niña de

Listen up, girlfriend: you’re a handful! Spunky, sassy, and full of life, the Ram girl has energy to burn and will certainly catch a few eyes along the way. That’s what you want, right? You’ve also got an independent streak and are a pioneer in many ways. It wouldn’t be uncommon fo r you to be president of your service club, a role which suits you well. At times, you can be a bit hyper-focused on yoursel f - some days, what’s yours is yours, period. You wouldn’t even think to swap clothes with your best friend. Oh well. Dating for the Ram girl is no problem since you’re happy to do the asking out! Hey, that way you get to make the call on the spot, right? Self-sufficient one that you are, you’re always ready to pay your share if need be. When it comes time for the big school decision, big is the operat i ve wor d. You’ll totally groove on the big-school scene. Once there, the daring you would lead an impassioned protest wearing a miniskirt and chunky heels! Look out, world, the Ram girl is on her way.

JULY 2011–JAN 2012

That pretty girl surrounded by a bevy of beauties (both male and female) - yes, it’s you, Libra! You’re certainly not one to hang around alone. More to the point, though, you are very focused on looking good. As Libra is ruled by Venus, the Planet of Love, Beauty, and Aesthetic, your hair will always be in the latest style, and your fashion sense is as good as it gets. Many Libra girls wind up in the fashion industry for this very reason. As for all of that company in your midst, it’s plain and simple - the Libra girl can’t stand to be alone. If you’re not in a relationship (highly unlikely), you’ll cling to your palsand always socialize with a crowd. And a happy group it will be, since you’ll insist on harmony at all costs. Some may perceive your willingness to please as superficial and hey, somedays, it may be just that, but your intentions are always good. Since Libra is an Air sign, you possess the qualities of an intellectual and will do well in school. Or maybe it’s because you just can’t stand the thought of an argument with the teacher! Whatever the case, you’re bound to wind up doing beautiful work.

Primping and posing in front of a mirror? Yep, that’s a Taurus girl! Hey, it is you, after all, who’s up on the latest fashions, so you may as well look good in them. Taurus is ruled by Venus, the planet of attraction and beauty, so this all makes “stellar” sense. When it comes to dating, you’re traditional and love to be wined and dined. The boy who picks you up in a nice car and takes you out for an expensive dinner will score a perfect 10! Needless to say, your stash of cash (and a Taurus always has one) will be spent at the mall. The Bull girl can be a bit stubborn at times and certainly holds a fixed opinion, but the flip side of this is that you have a goal and are pretty determined to achieve it. As a result, you’ll be a good student and will go places. Where, exactly? Well, probably to the offices of a PR agency or a nice fancy mag (Quinceañera Magazine, are you listening??). If a sporting date is made, the Bull girl will almost certainly suggest golf or tennis, the better to keep that makeup in place. Hmmm, and there are some awfully cute tennis dresses, too.

Listen up, Capricorn girl: there’s more to life than work! Yes, this is true, but you will have a hard time believing it. You are both studious and hard-working, necessary elements for someone as ambitious as yourself. Not only are you in the National Honor Society, you’re at the top of the heap! Your look is likely to be preppy, but you’ll spice it up a bit if it will help your agenda. Otherwise, it’s a traditional take on both hair and clothes. The Capricorn girl is also a serious dater, someone who aims high and will spend her time with the one who will help to make her a success. And you’re practicing for these successes early on, since you already love to be wined and dined! You’ll easily do well in school, since that’s a good start on the road to becoming CEO. Ivy Leaguers beware: a new girl is about to rule the roost, and she’s a Cap!

If the prom queen isn’t a Leo, the vote was rigged. You, girl, are the center of attention all day every day, and that’s exactly how you like it! The Lion girl always looks good - “I mean, does anything else matter?” you might say. Not really, which is why your hair is always perfect, and you’re most definitely sporting the latest fashions. The only labels you wear are designer, which means it’ssomeone else who’ll be shopping at the Gap. That boy of yours had better know the best restaurants or he won’t be around for long. Therefore, rich boys only need apply. Hey, they can be nice too, right? They are also the ones most comfortable with your favorite pastimes, things like playing tennis, riding, and sailing. The ever-sociable you will always be the leader of the group, and the bigger the group, the better. That’s why big schools will be on your radar screen once it comes time to c hoose a university. You may be a handful, but you’re definitely going places ! And get ting there will b e plenty of fun for the Leo girl.

You, Pisces girl, are the best shoulder to cry on in the world. Compassionate and sympathetic, you’re always willing to assist a friend in need. Taking it a step further, it’s not unlikely that you’ll make helping others (and genuinely caring about their welfare) your life’s work. For the Pisces girl, relationships are all about the vibe between two people, and you’re most in love with being in love. Your special guy won’t need to spend a lot of money to impress you, since it’s the feeling you’re after. As for schooling and beyond, you’d easily get lost in a big school, so help yourself by choosing a small (preferably liberal arts) college.

O bien, puedes estar en el ingreso del salón dando la bienvenida a todos, recibiendo regalos y felicitaciones.

Despues de la cena:

JULY 2011–JAN 2012

Bailar tu vals al principio de la fiesta es muy emocionante porque tu no sabes cómo luce el salón ya arreglado ni quienes de tus invitados están ahí. Hacer tu entrada bailando el vals y abrir la pista de baile, resalta que por tu llegada no hay más que esperar para dar inicio a la diversión.

•Puedes pasear en limousine y llegar un poco más tarde para dar tiempo a que la mayoría de tus invitados lleguen. •Esconderte en algún lugar del salón para que nadie te vea hasta que llegue ese momento

Si no quieres arriesgarte a bailar tu vals al principio porque crees que no todos llegarán a tiempo, otro momento oportuno es después de cenar para volver a prender a todos tus cuates .Lo importante es no interrumpir el ritmo de tu fiesta.

El vals no debe ser muy largo. Elige uno dinámico y divertido para que mantengas a todos tus invitados atentos en ti. Bailar con todos tus tíos, primos, padrinos, amigo, etc es tediosos y aburrido y además pasado de onda. Sólo baila con tu papá y tu padrino de Xv años ¡claro, después de haberte lucido tu sola y tus bailarines!

NEGOTIATE EVERYTHING! And walk away with the best deals. Quince Budget: how to negotiate with your vendors While steep discounts are unrealistic, there’s a good chance of getting a few extras thrown in. (Think an additional hour for your reception, or a champagne upgrade.) You just have to negotiate right. Here’s how. Even if you’re working with the hottest vendor in town, there’s always room to negotiate, especially if there’s a good reason to reduce costs -- like having the quinceañera on a less-popular Friday night. Here are some more crucial pointers.

KNOW THE MARKET

Find out what other vendors offer for the same price point, and use this as leverage. Ask about every single thing that’s included in your package. Then find out in advance what extras are going to cost -- and whether those costs can be waived.

STICK TO YOUR LIMIT

A vendor may be willing to cut you a deal as long as you agree to something additional -- for example, he might consent to give you an extra hour of shooting, but only if you have him take your engagement photos. What you need to ask yourself is whether this will actually cost you more in the end.

ADOPT A FRIENDLY BUT FIRM DEMEANOR

There’s no harm in politely asking for a deal. If vendors are excited to work with you, they may be more willing to come up with creative solutions.

BE INDIFFERENT

You need the vendor to believe that if he or she won’t meet your offer you will walk away. Consider collaborating with your fiance to employ the old good-cop-bad-cop routine.

no de los dolores de cabeza mas grandes en la organización de tu fiesta es el rotular las invitaciones. ¿A quien debe dirigirse la invitación? ¿Cuales sonlas reglas de etiqueta? Y tantas preguntas mas te van a surgir cuando empieces a organizar tu lista de invitados No sufras mas . Así van las cosas: 1.- Cuando los invitados son una pareja de esposos se escribe primero el nombre de El y luego se agrega el de Ella. Ejemplo: Sr. Juan y María Perez. 2.- Cuando además de la pareja se está invitando a algún otro miembro de la familia (Algún hijo) Se escribe así: Sr. Juan Pérez y Familia.

JULY 2011–JAN 2012

3.- Cuando la fiesta es muy de categoria , de etiqueta formal, se le antepone el título de Don o Doña . Y se puede usar tanto en solteros como casados. Sr. Don Alberto Corlione Srita. Doña Verónica de Corlione 4.- En ocasiones se usan los títulos profesionales de los invitados: Por Dr. German Rosas Ing. Samuel García y Familia

a n u TU L A

5.- Si entre sus invitados hay un military, es necesario mencionar su grado y título por ejemplo: General Alberto Medina 6.- En caso de que se invite a una mujer viuda o separada o divorciada es mejor escribir su nombre con su apellido de soltera. 7.- Cuando la mujer es viuda, se escribe su apellido de soltera, y se anexa el título viuda de ejemplo: Sra. Ana María Granados, Vda. De Sanchez 8.- Si se invita a una amiga (o) que aún no esté casada, pero que lleva a su novio o acompañante se escribe: Srita. Julia De la O y acompañante. 9.- En caso de que tengas un invitado extranjero que viva fuera del país, se debe investigar el título correspondiente en su idioma. Ejemplo: Mr. John Smith. Despues de rotular las invitaciones, hay que repartirlas. Lo ideal es entregarlas personalmente. Si es así, el sobre no se sella, se entrega abierto, y la persona que lo recibe deberá sellarlo frente a ti (y si no lo hace, enséñale éste artículo). Bueno, ya aprendiste reglas de etiqueta. Usalas y demuéstrale a todo mundo lo bien educadita que estás
