2nd article:

http://www.cnn.com/2007/EDUCATION/05/15/harvard.reut/index.html


The article’s main focus is on the change in curriculum in Harvard University in 30 years. It mentions that this curriculum change would be “putting new emphasis on sensitive religious and cultural issues, the sciences and overcoming US parochialism”. Parochialism is when one is concerned with only a narrow range of issues, particularly those that concern one. The reason for this curriculum change is because there had been criticism about the curriculum in what was considered the “oldest US institute of higher learning”.

I think that this change would be beneficial for all in various ways, and it would also expose the students to many different customs, traditions, culture and habits that they have not known before. Besides, Harvard is a prestigious college, and it should not just focus too narrowly on academic topics or issues that concern US. Instead, there should be education on the various different parts of the world, as well as real life issues, for example, ethical issues in science as mentioned in the article.

This article mentions US parochialism more than once. I think that parochialism belonging to any form is not beneficial, as this will only narrow a person’s view of the world, and also limits the so-called knowledge for the person to learn. Education can begin from issues directly concerned with the person, and then slowly branch out to include bigger, broader issues. It should not be stagnated at a point where the learning only comes from the issues directly concerned.

Education should not just be about the facts of life and in science and languages, it should be able life itself, and how knowledge can be applied to life. There are many different things about education such as culture and beliefs that are worth learning and looking into. Every different culture and belief is a new window of knowledge, and enriches one’s learning experience as well as provides one with more information about others instead of just issues and things that are directly concerned with oneself. This provides a broader perspective for one to look into, and there’s more room for exploration too.

Only when knowledge not only about oneself, but also about others is grasped, can that be considered as truly learning. Education should aim to achieve this level, whereby there is no parochialism. By changing the curriculum, Harvard is in fact leading by example to other colleges, and I think that this change would be for the betterment of education.

" i almost forgot to say something else
and if i cant fit it in i'll keep it to myself
i almost wrote you a song about you today
but i tore it all up and threw it away
"

HAHAHA:D
so here is this anonymous speaking here today
on 16th may 2007.
cos the day is special.
as ive seen these blue clouds that parade this beautiful
never ending and unforsaken land
i remember the days we stare upon the sky
and talk about gossips of moon and stars
how scandalous just aquaintances could get.
HMMM.
i dont make sense now:D

oh yeahh. well! im bored:D
tomoro is going to be a free day for me.
but luwei has got plenty of assignments due tomoro.
and now he is doing a philo assignment.
"steel would expand when heated"
hmm, what a heated debate it would be to discuss about this.
i think i would own.
HAHAHA the rest GO HOME LAHH(:
and i went sakae today.
it was so fun.

cos we sat on chairs that could move.
no seriously, LITERALLY. it moved in circus
so as we ate, we sang
"circle circle dot dot"
ahhaha, and i memories quotes for lit that helped in my lit exam
so im a happy girl.
today i didnt clap my hands
cos my teachers said that was "childish"
oh whatever.
so i stomp my feet(: ahahhaah how cool hur.
i know, but annoyed them a hell lot! HEE HEEE:D

oh and SAKAE IS GOOD STILL.
hahaha:D and omg.
i hate talking to 9 people on msn
so annoying.
alright.
i'll stop here and end off with a well, memory.

ive seen these photographs of those pretence smiles
it brought back the shots where they all dwell
cant seem to forget this hurt thats pressing me within
cos everyday i become locked up in a cage of inhumanity
every turn i make
seems to diverse my attention to your face
oh, you're just simply too "irresistable"

so true, i beg for a battle that is of equal standing
oh please dont torture me further.
cos im falling deeper

deeper, each step i take
a step that causes me to fall.

fall
fall
fall

is that all i could ever do?
wouldnt i be able to pick myself up?
i fear, i fear oh dont go gentle....

Here's the news article review for this term


Sources: http://www.cnn.com/2007/HEALTH/05/11/image.self.esteem.reut/index.html



This article reflects how outer appearance matters a lot to teenagers nowadays, and how it can affect their confidence and self esteem as well. It shows results that reflect the close relationship between body satisfaction and self esteem, particularly for girls.

Although this study is based in New York, it is evident that such instances exist in Singapore as well. Teenagers are mostly influenced by the images portrayed in the media. People featured on television and in magazines are more often than not an example of what is considered the “perfect” body now. For females, they are mostly shown skinny, sometimes to the extent of looking malnourished and for males; they are mostly shown with the so-called “good body” with six packs. These images can subconsciously set a standard in the teenagers’ minds for them to achieve.

Not too long ago, there were cases of secondary school girls competing to lose weight, and these girls ended up getting anorexia nervosa, some even had to be hospitalized. Not only in Singapore, there was a case in Spain where a 14 year old girl starved to death due to anorexia nervosa as she was trying to lose weight in order to attain her dream of being a model.

Things like bullying also occur due to self-esteem, and this further causes the victim to feel bad about her self-image. Not only does this happen to girls, it happens to boys as well. Every now and then, there are bullying cases happening.

The main reason that is indirectly causing teenagers to have low self-esteem is the influence from the media. This has escalated to many negative consequences and should not be encouraged. The media is feeding the wrong ideas into the teenagers’ minds, though it is not justified to say that all media is doing that, as there are times when issues like body image are addressed.

One thing that can be seen from the article is that Singapore is greatly influenced by the Western countries, as they are perceived to be more advanced and at a higher level than us Asians. The article mentioned that the blacks are less inclined to suffer from low self-esteem due to body satisfaction, and this shows how Western culture has come to influence Asian countries like Singapore, particularly the young generation.

It is not beneficial for teenagers to blindly follow Western culture, especially if it can be harmful to us. Teenagers should, instead, learn from the blacks and how they do not let their body satisfaction affect their self-esteem.

Create your own Friend Test here



and then i stare at your face
whisper those sweet nothings
that deny the truth of reality
because you wave "hello" to me
and i say "goodbye, my past".
i must confess, you're truly more than
what i really desire.
*

strolling down this memory lane
i recall, the many times we spent together
reminscing about the past and present
because its indeed juxtaposed within.
i cry, just cos im morphed between dreams and nightmares
horrors that seem to flood my mind
and as i recall,
it hurts my mind
cos i all remember is simply, your face
-

to think you know nothing about me
every word every movement we make
just so that, we've been through it all together
memories that stained our minds
that holds this friendship into place
so strong, like an ionic bond
that forms love , friendship love
like how atoms , this simplest love element
that get bonded together.
because of our heated conversations that bring about
bring about this mutual understanding and strong bond
truly, you're one and only.
forever, ever. congratualations.
+

and if wrote you a symphony of sounds,
would you "hold me there at hello"
or would you shun me away like im invisible.
i mourn i cry, for your attention towards me.
but alls lost, cos you're gone from me.
to declare what we call "love" so be it.
i think truth is, we've been in denial this way through.


:)

and one last caption.
"the bearer of love, is nothing but pure and the innocence"
so remember:)
everyone has the capacity to love.
just so you know, we're all humans:)

yay

because ive been assigned to this task
im here to update for my best friend.
well, im cool, so shut up and read.

:)

today hasnt been fantabulous for me
but im sure it was beneficial for him
cos luwei packed his room.
like WOW:)
and it was be speckless now, aint it?
HAHAHA(:
uhhh, i still proclaim, i love ninjas.
tho luwei thinks samurai is the hots.
i beg to differ.
:D

hmm. what else to say.
lets all talk about the moon.

tonight, the moon that hung above us all
blending in to this never ending blue sky
this sky that seems to shelter us.
sheltering us from, whatever it may be.
reaching out, you hope to touch this roof.
you want to feel its presence but,
its out of your limits
you're trapped within.
the sky, so bounded with serenity
but captured in this nightmare of yours
its a nightmare
cos its at night, that shows this moon
which guides you through;
you cant breathe
you try to, squealing for help. you lose control.
no not all is lost.
because you've got this living shadow beside you
saying "hello, i miss you quite terribly"

and together, you and her.
travel along this very sand along this beach
and made a memory almost incredibly.
with a pair of footsteps that created.
you carry her through in happiness and glee.

<3

hope you like this post.
i know the above doesnt exactly make the slightest bit of sense
cos im simply rushing off to bathee.
:)
