...What exactly can encapsulate how a year in Cambridge has been like? What choice of words, what photos, what specific memories would suffice to capture the whirlwind of emotions, the myriad of new experiences? Nothing really seems to come close, but here’s a shot at it. Cook-outs – One of the first few things that you’ll start missing when overseas would definitely be the food; your humble hokkein mee, chye tao kueh, rojak, laksa… you name it, we’ll crave it. The fact that the only photos that Singaporeans seem capable of posting on Facebook are that of food certainly doesn’t make things easier. So what does one do then? LEARN HOW TO COOK. This was no mean feat for me especially, as someone who didn’t know how to cook an omelette without charring. The learning curve may be steep but you’ll be surprised at how fast you’ll learn and also how high your tolerance for substandard food becomes when you’ve misjudged the time to let your noodles boil and the amount of salt to add for the 912695th time. Not to worry also, CUMSA is overrun by excellent individuals who are so well-rounded that they can not only finish all their supervision work, attend formals every night and generally save the world, but they can cook. So when you’re tired of eating over-salted soggy noodles, all you need to do is wrangle an invitation to dinner. Oh the delicacies that they can whip up, but more importantly the glorious company and bonds forged over dinner. Food really is one of the ties that bind Singaporeans...

...Intergenerational justice Name: Course: Instructor: Date: In the post modern era that many of the young people are finding themselves in, it is very normal to feel lonely, misplaced but worst of all neglected. This happens amidst all the opulence and enhancement of life that modernity promised to offer. The government has done little to remedy this and many of the young people feel completed left out and not properly engaged in the world affairs (Reid, 2008). This is a sad analysis but also a very accurate one. Everyone thought that modernity would make life easier, that technology would help to find solutions to our challenges but this has not been the case. With modernity came along challenges that not many would have predicted. The present day young person is faced with more challenges than the previous generations had to deal with. Poor health, more pollution, global competition, low pay are some of the things that the young people have to deal. All this while, the government is just but watching and not providing any tangible solutions. Well, the reason as to why the young the people would feel this way towards the government and other agencies is because they would have expected better than this. It is my opinion that the government has not done all it could have done to shield and better equip the young people. Yet fully aware of the challenges that post-modernity has brought along, no proper policies or reforms have been established to manage this. The little...

...Points Society utilizes a certain area depending on elements such as architecture and its aesthetic qualities. Harvard Square, located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, is no different. Centrally located within Harvard University, it is evident the Square mimics the university’s attractive Georgian architecture. Other influential characteristics can be seen in the Square’s efforts for preservation, like Out of Town News, which gives the Square its own local character. These architectural qualities influence visitors’ behaviors to use the space to their own benefit through the use of impulse buying, triangulation, and different seating arrangements. Harvard Square not only provides a historic place for individuals to shop, dine and congregate, but also an opportunity to find their own center in a large, impersonal city. Is it possible that a certain color of brick or position of wall can manipulate a person’s behavior? As strange as it sounds, this influence can be seen in an area situated in the middle of an Ivy League campus that contains several clothing stores, a large underground train station, and restaurants. This “heterogeneous” area, known as Harvard Square, despite its age, is still considered unique and upbeat place within a historic, elite university. Since the heart of the Square is shaped like a triangle, different parts of Cambridge touch this area. For example, on the side of Massachusetts Avenue are Harvard University and its historic Harvard Yard. On the other side...

...Organizational Design Article Student Name Institutional Affiliation Introduction Organizational design refers to the art and science of optimizing an organizational structure to support business, cultural, or strategic goals (Burton, 2011). It examines culture, strategies, processes, and structure to achieve the set goals. This paper will give the summary of the article Not what it was and not what it will be: The future of job design research, which will examine the future of organizational design. Article summary This article gives a summary of the future directions of theory and research regarding the organizational design. The authors of this article have focused on the social aspects of modern workplaces, the changing contexts of work performance, the increased teamwork as compared to individual task completion, and the processes that employees involve in the creation of their own jobs. According to Oldham & Hackman (2010), organizational design started long time ago, and this is apparent from Adam Smith’s essay on division of labor. Oldham & Hackman (2010) consider that Smith’s thoughts on design and manufacturing led to the scientific management philosophy. Most workers including industrial engineers adopted this philosophy to increase control and efficiency in the workplace. The primary idea was to design work systems with highly simplified work and standardized operations. This created a hindrance to employee job satisfaction, which discouraged...

...Realism in Ibsen’s A Doll’s House and Churchill’s Top Girls Nineteen-century Europe held rigid conventionalisms of class division, social order and gender roles. Society hid behind the mask of hypocrisy in an attempt to preserve bourgeoisie’s position of power. In that concern, conceptions of ‘liberty of the spirit’[1] and ‘liberty of thought and of the human condition’[2] came to question. Thus, Henrik Ibsen drew attention to the threat to ideas of freedom and public opinion by giving life to A Doll’s House (1879). He aimed to critique constraints of Victorian society rather than vindicating the rights of women. In that sense, in a speech given in his honour by the Norwegian Women’s Rights League on 26 May 1898 he stresses: ‘Whatever I have written has been without any conscious thought of making propaganda. […] To me it has seemed a problem of humanity in general.’[3] Ibsen clearly states he strove to expose the manipulation of individuals’ liberties as he worked for the human cause. In Caryl Churchill’s Top Girls (1982) the aim of the play is to reveal how the fulfilment of women’s self-realization needs in the personal and social spheres is achieved by compromising humanity and morality. In the end, what ‘The New Woman’ gets is disillusionment and loneliness as she finds herself in a predicament: mother or career woman, sensitive or hardened. In Top Girls what is represented is the price women pay to go up the corporate ladder in a male-dominant world. Thus, I will...
