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!

Talent or Money?

*It has been a long time since I posted on this blog. Since this is my very first post of 2013, I wish everybody having a great year ahead in 2013! (By the way, screwed those Mayans who say that the world will end) The judging panel and host of the singing talent show The Voice (Top) and The X Factor(Below). (Top): Adam Levine, Cee Lo Green, Christina Aguilera, Blake Sheldon and Carson Daly. (Below): L.A. Reid, Demi Lovato, Britney Spears and Simon Cowell.  Whether you are a fan of any talent show, here comes a big question for the producers. Are you guys really interested in searching a new talent or interested in making your pocket richer? On TV, I could say all of them will say the former one, but backstage I’m sure many will pick the later answer. Whether you are a fan of The Voice, American Idol, The X Factor, Got Talent or even Dancing with the Stars, there’s one fact you can't deny, that is the more frequent you turn on your TV to watch these shows, the more mon...

June 2014

I guess I don’t need to remind everybody what’s the world’s biggest event that is happening in June. It’s none other than the FIFA World Cup Final happening in Brazil. As usual, I won’t throw my support for any national team. Malaysia, as usual are NOWHERE close to make the World Cup. I just wished that this would be a good tournament after my disappointment in South Africa 4 years ago. But if there’s a team I wished to see them win, it’s probably Germany. There have been playing very consistently over the past 10 years in international tournaments, from the qualifying round to the finals, whether it’s the World Cup or the Euros. This time around they are possibly having one of the best squad of all 32 teams. So, perhaps this is the best time for them to lift the World Cup trophy. I do expect some teams to play well in this tournament. Brazil should perform well in their home soil. Spain, well-known with their passing game are in it to defend their title. Another hot favorite-Ar...

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...
