This tour comes to Guadalajara each 4 months.

They are different activities, guests, contests, games, etc...
When I first got in the expo I was scared because people was derssed really strange and I was alone, but then I found my friends , we started walking around and we took some pictures.

The general experience is cool because is something new for a lot of people, and you can see a lot of things really curious.

The kind of people that goes there are people who like anime, cosplay, manga, comics, etc...Some people make really good costumes and they take too seriously the paper of the character.

One of the craziest things I saw were the karaoke, they were song from series and some of them in japanese. There also were a part were you could dance K-pop and a lot of boys were dancing so girly because those songs were from a K-pop girl band. There were crazy things on sale like blood bags but the blood was juice.

Cosplay is a type of art were people use accessories and costumes that represet a character or idea "costume play".

Anime is a type of animation originary from Japan.

Manga are comics created in Japan, the medium includes works in a broad range of genres: action-adventure, romance, sports, drama, etc...

Comic is an artistic medium in which images incorporate text and information in order to express a narrative or idea.

IN MY OPINION:

Is is a good experience going there because it was new for me and it is really entretaining watching all the people and the characters.

Is amaizing how people get into the characters and interpret them.

I think here people can be themselves and no one can judge them; I also think is the most expected day of the year.

UNIVA´S GYM

Univa is finally about to finish the gymnasium that they have been doing for over 2 years and promoting it since long before. Students of the university and high school are excited to hear how is it going to work and when will be the grand opening. This will give a lot of good Publicity to the school and fame too. And here are some graphs about what the students of the high school think about the new "gym" and what are their expectations. 

We did an opinion poll to 100 UNIVA´s students and this were the results.

In my opinion:
They have been too slow in the construction, they also did it too small because we are a lot of students from university and high school, they could have done it bigger because they have a lot of space.
There is a thing that I don´t agree with, they want to let the graduates also use it, I don´t know why they say that if the gym is too small.
I only hope that they keep it clean and beautiful.

North Korea vs South Korea

North and South Korea were separated at the end of World War II. They've walked quite different paths since then.

Under successive pro-American governments, the South has become an economic powerhouse, one of the G-20 major economies. South Korean companies like Samsung, Hyundai, and LG are renowned around the world.

The North, led by a family dynasty based on "Juche" philosophy of self-sufficiency, has turned into a bitterly poor and unpredictable nation.

Missile tension

New reports of missile movements in North Korea have triggered military counteractions by South Korea and the United States.

A U.S. official told CNN that two medium-range missiles have been loaded onto mobile launchers on the East coast of North Korea, but a second U.S. official said intelligence on that is not definitive.

South Korea’s semi-official Yonhap news agency reported the missiles were ready to launch, citing military sources in Seoul. They are likely Musudan missiles, U.S. officials said. They would have a 2,500-mile range and could threaten South Korea, Japan and Southeast Asia.

It is believed a missile launch would be a “test” launch rather than a targeted strike.

IN MY OPINION:

Wars in this century are more dangerous because they are going to be with bombs and missiles, and the biggest problem is that Mexico is next to US so the bombs can affect us too. It is not fear :c

SPRING BREAK

Toward the latter part of the school year, colleges and universities in the United States suspend classes for one to two weeks, usually in the month of March or April. Known as spring break.

MEXICO 

Tourists from all over the world come to Mexico for spring break, is just about partying and having fun.

The must visited beaches are Cancun, Mazatlan, Puerto Vallarta, Acapulco, Rosarito, etc...

But... touris are afraid off coming because lately they have been some problems, and some murders, so... people is now afraid to come.

Acapulco. According to Stratfor this is the most violent city in Mexico and the second-most city in the world after San Pedro de Sula,Honduras.

Cancun. Stratfor says that both drugs and people are commonly trafficked through Cancun’s port. In Playa del Carmen, in Quintana Roo state like Cancun, two policemen in February allegedly sexually assaulted an Italian citizen.

Mazatlan. This has been “perhaps the most consistently violent of Mexico’s resort cities during the past year,” says Stratfor. The violence may be abating, however. There were “only” 47 homicides there in 2012, after 214 in 2011. In nearby Concordia last December 30 gunmen are said to have executed nine people.

Puerto Vallarta. Safer than Acapulco or Mazatlan, but there’s still a real need for tourists to exercise “situational awareness.” In February 2012 when 22 tourists ventured off of their Carnival Cruise Lines ship for a stroll around El Nogalito, near Puerto Vallarta, they were held up and robbed.

Cabo San Lucas. According to Stratfor, Cabo, on the tip of Baja, is “one of the safer places in Mexico for foreign tourists.”

Matamoros. Just over the Texas border on the Gulf of Mexico, Matamoros has seen an increase in robberies and kidnappings.
