Trip to Georgetown
Earlier today I was in Georgetown to take care of some business. I got up early to get the bus (from Linden) to Georgetown. I did not expect to get there so quickly. The time in Georgetown went by very quickly as well. I was able to get the task completed and return to Linden… Continue reading

Hot Weather
It is amazingly hot in Linden and I find myself reaching for something cold to drink ever so often. A lot of times I drink water. Sometimes it is a “sweet drink” from Banks DIH. Sometimes I need a break from all the water – a refreshing drink that tastes good. Banks DIH drinks do… Continue reading

Food at the office party
Good morning from Linden, Guyana! In the U.S., when there is a potluck, employees bring the food that will be eaten at the office party. Some people cook or bake food to contribute. For potlucks, I liked to contribute items like chips and drinks. I noticed a slightly different practice in Guyanese offices. In Guyana, there… Continue reading

Resume Length
My resume does not show the job title Writer or Technical Writer much, but I have been writing as part of my job for over 20 years! One of the first jobs was the Financial Auditor position I held in 2003/2004. I was an auditor who was also responsible for writing reports of my findings.… Continue reading

My Last Search
The WordPress prompt for today 8/27/2024 is: What was the last thing you searched for online? Why were you looking for it? My response: I use Google search fairly regularly. I search for such things as: articles/papers, lyrics to songs, and people. I tend to use keyword searches (rather than full sentences or questions) and usually… Continue reading

Everyone rushed by
Would I stop and appreciate a beautiful thing? That is what I asked myself as I read the piece on an experiment at a DC metro station. No one treated the world-class musician playing beautiful music in the metro station as he should be treated. A group of people gathering around him applauding as he… Continue reading

Ancestry
I just watched a travel video by popular travel and food vlogger Mark Wiens (link to video: https://youtu.be/DMlITdf3w-o?si=yVWP5EicO5H7R4kc). The video was different from his other videos because he had the results of a DNA test that provided information on his ancestry and also because his father was involved. I got the sense that the DNA results… Continue reading

Writing
Some people argue that it is important to write simply and clearly, even in academic papers. I just saw such an argument by Jason Thatcher, a well-known academic on LinkedIn. I agree with his position.

It is hot in Linden
Good morning from Linden, Guyana! It is a quiet morning so far. It is expected to be very hot today – a high of 94 degrees fahrenheit. I will be indoors away from the heat. We have had a lot of hot days recently. It is hotter than I expected. The heat does not affect… Continue reading
ABOUT ME
I am working to be published. In the next few months, I would like to publish my PhD papers as well as lessons from my life.
I am on a break from PhD studies at National University, formerly Northcentral University (NCU). At NU, I completed 11 signature assignments – significant papers with original ideas. In one paper, I foresaw specific problems at a major company. In another, I designed a study (with statistical analyses) to explain why videos do not significantly enhance or improve online reviews. I worked alone. My signature assignments available at: https://fahmeenaodettasignaturepapers.tumblr.com.
About THIS BLOG
I created this blog to capture my thoughts and ideas and to practice writing. Why practice writing? I was on a break from my PhD and not writing much. I needed to continue writing regularly – I wrote and submitted weekly assignments/papers.
I also track my mental health using this blog.
I am currently working on publishing my papers in academic journals. Click the ‘paperforpublishing’ tag in the tags section below for my last status update. Usability/user experience is one of my topics. Click on the ‘usability’ label/tag to view my posts, including ideas, on usability. I have new ideas you may be interested in. If you are here for information on my success research, click on the ‘success’ tag. If you are here for information on my hometown, click on the ‘lindenguyana’ tag. If you are curious about my choices about God, click on the ‘WhyGodForever’ label.
