Juventus V Real Madrid | What I Think

First of all, I am a Madridista. But when it comes to things like this I really wanna look at the picture objectively without being biased to Real Madrid. So here's what I think about the match.

Real Madrid played horribly for a semi-final stage against a team that some say should have been defeated by Monaco in the quarter-finals (no offence to Juventinis but that's true). The passing was not all that good in midfield. In fact if anything, I think Real Madrid are being really really sloppy with their possession.
One of the things that played badly for Real Madrid in this match is Ramos' position. I know Ancelotti played him in the midfield and I know it has been successful for a couple of matches before but this time it really just isn't right. I think having Ramos in midfield could be really good when it "works out" but in this match I don't think it did. Sergio Ramos isn't really that guy in midfield with the vision and the passes if you get what I'm saying. He missed a few passes and it would seem that he isn't in the same wave length as his teammates in some occasion. Although at least you would expect him to be a valuable asset in defence, I think it also wasn't his day when it comes to that.
Anyway, a great goal from Ronaldo and that single away goal might be a huge lift in the Bernabeu.

Juve played a really really great game. I admire their discipline in defence and their counter-attacks, They were playing the kind of game that Madrid should be playing that night. The first goal was a decent one. Even though I'm a little bit crossed by who scored it. Hehe. But the second one, emm, not so. I mean, don't get me wrong. I agree with referee Atkinson's decision to point at the spot. I just couldn't really accept the fact that it all started by Marcelo's shot (I believe) and it got deflected by Juve's defence until it magically reached Tevez's foot. It was the most silly of starts but whatever, still a goal and I can't argue with it.
After their second goal, Juve's defence did a really great job in defending Real Madrid's attacks. It was really hard to find an opening there. When Juve was countering, most of the time you only see 3 Madrid players at the defence before more comes as reinforcement. But when Madrid was countering, man, Juve's got like 6 people already there so it's so hard to find an opening.

Nonetheless, it wasn't the worst outcome for Real Madrid even though it should've been better. There's still a lot to look forward to in the Bernabeu. For Juve fans out there, please don't look up too much. We're notorious for our last minute plot twists so don't let your guard down...

Speech Script: Being an Introvert

Hey, Guys. I thought I'll share another speech script today. I used this script when I was competing in a competition held by a Senior High in Bantul, Yogyakarta Special Area. I got 1st in that competition so I think this one is pretty good. And I also wanna say that in this speech script I slipped in a little personal story of mine. So it's gonna be a little hard if you're going to copy it haha... So here you go. I’ve always felt that I’m different compared to most people. At least compared to most students in my school. On break time, they like to gather in groups and gossip about someone or chat about the current trends. I prefer not to. If I necessarily have to get involved in a group chat outside my class, I always try not to do the unnecessary. Not to talk too much. Some people say that I’m shy and weird. Some even say I’m arrogant and antisocial. The truth is, I’m an “introvert”. So ladies and gentlemen, the honourable judges, and my fellow competitors, this morn

Creating Contents and Getting it Out

Whether it's writing, typing, or making videos, getting stories out there into the public is a form of content creating. The stories in the form of words that you write or type and the videos that you film and produce will be seen by people and therefore your content would serve it's purpose. It could be an entertaining story, or something that has educational value, or anything. Content creating is very fun and it could "force" you to keep pushing your boundaries until you find new ones. Personally, I am a big fan of content creating. Youtube videos, blog writings, news, all that sort of stuff. I think it's one of the easiest ways of sharing positivity to other people around the world (although there are definitely pricks out there who uses this opportunity to spread negativity and fear). As long as you're contents are intended to affect people positively, content creating and content sharing would have so many benefits not only to the creator, but also to

My Not So Professional Take on Indonesia's Education System

    So recently I just had this little realisation. I was about to call it an epiphany but I thought using that word would be a dramatisation, so for the moment let's just call it a minor realisation. So I live in Indonesia which if you don't know already, is a developing country. We have so many things to be proud about like our astonishingly diverse culture and our unique culinary taste. But education isn't one of those things. Education is far from those things. Like our education sucks. I don't exactly know the reason to that. I mean I haven't done a research or anything but I might have some ideas and hypotheses to the situation. The human resource, the gap between islands Firstly, I think the problem comes from the not-so-advanced framework of the whole education system itself. Indonesia comes 4th globally in terms of population. There's about 250 million of us. And yet, our education system doesn't have enough human resource to support
