2014



It has been a long time since I last posted something on my blog. Since I haven’t posted anything here in the year of 2014, it’s probably a great opportunity to talk about myself and the direction of this blog. I don’t think I have introduced myself here. My name is Zhe Xu. (I know it’s hard to pronounce!) I’m a Malaysian, currently studying in the US. The reason I started this blog in 2011 is to share the information I know and to voice out my analyses or opinions towards any issues. I’m a person who loves to talk. So perhaps blogging is the right platform to express my thoughts.

As you can see, I posted a lot of random stuff on my blog since the first day I started blogging. Most of the posts here are heavily related to sports. Some posts related to aviation and aerospace, some related to my personal experiences, and occasionally a few involving politics and government. I would not change much of what I had done here. What I’m looking forward to do this year is to update my blog more frequently. Perhaps some short posts or stories to keep this blog updating.

I’m fully aware that the writings I produced are not the best. But think again, isn’t this the whole aim of blogging? The opportunity to write and learn every day? So, I hope whoever is reading this right now, regardless of which part of the world are you from, will enjoy the information/materials I shared here. Enjoy your reading! Thank You!

My 2014 World Cup Team of the Tournament

It's the end of the World Cup season, the time to look back at this year’s tournament. So, here is my 2014 World Cup Team of the Tournament. I elect to go for a 3-5-2 formation, which is formation that got the results for teams like Netherlands, Mexico, and Costa Rica who did well at this year’s tournament. GK: Manuel Neuer (Germany) He’s definitely one of the best goalkeepers right now. A well-deserved Golden Glove award to add to his resume. Neuer has the skills and intelligence that most goalkeepers in the world doesn’t possesed. The awareness to know when to come out from his line to make those saves. The sharpness to make incredible saves and the good ball distribution technique that help facilitate the German team. CB: Mats Hummels (Germany) He’s definitely one of the world’s best defenders right now and the performance he put on in this World Cup certainly justified that. He is a guy that is able to able to contribute defensively and offensively for the team, scori...

May 2014

May, the start of the wonderful and warm summer season for countries in the northern hemisphere. But right at the start of the month, it’s always the period where you are dealing with your final exam including me. So, I will try to wrap up things as fast as possible. But still there are many thoughts inside my brain forcing their way out of my mind. It all starts right now…….. The start of the summer movie season! I’m not sure why, but there are really not many movies I’m looking forward too. Not to say there are no good movies out there. Spiderman, Transformers, and X-Men will all hit the screen this summer. If there’s one movie I’m looking forward of all these famous franchise movies, I must say it’s the new Transformers movie - Transformers: Age of Extinction. We will see a new cast, a brand new storyline which pretty much not really related to the first three films, and not to forget the introduction of Dinobots to the current Autobots and Decepticons. The UEFA Champion...

2014 US Open Predictions

We are just exactly a week away from the last major of the year, the US Open happening in New York. It’s time to make some predictions for this year’s tournament.  * A wildcard pick which is for a player that might surprise us at this year’s tournament whom is still in search for the first major of their career. Men’s Singles Champion: Novak Djokovic (Serbia) I gave a long thought on who’s the favorite to win the men’s title. I know he’s not the player in form following early round exits at Toronto and Cincinnati. But when it comes to grand slam tournaments, he’s the most consistent player over the past few years and his record at the US Open is certainly impressive. He had made at least a semi-final appearance at Flushing Meadows since 2007. Wildcard: Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (France) The victory at Toronto will definitely be a confidence boost for the Frenchman. Just his only second ATP 1000 series title victory since 2008, this could be the turning point of his career. His ...
