Inside Fahmeena Odetta's Head

  • Living a life of purpose

    I really do believe that because I am alive when so many of my friends are dead, I should make the most of the time I have left (hopefully it is decades). I should try to use time wisely, live a good life, maybe carry on the important work others left behind. I must ensure… Continue reading

  • Friend

     I was shocked to learn of the passing of one of my friends from high school. It is interesting how life goes. She was also from Linden. I remember we rode our bicycles to Watooka to play tennis on the courts there. I didn’t have a lot of experience but I enjoyed it. I didn’t… Continue reading

  • Research

    Just recently, I got to thinking about research and my research career. I like that I am into research – I prepare research papers, I conduct business research, and so on. I like that staying objective and impartial is easy for me especially since I don’t have a lot of “connections.” It is not much… Continue reading

  • New Year

    This is my first post in 2026! It is a new year and I expect good things to happen. It is normal here in Maryland. I have little planned for today. I do have some appointments coming up so I would be getting dressed up for going out soon. I do need a few items… Continue reading

  • Update

    The new year is almost here. I am looking forward to new beginnings. I should be better off in 2026. At some point in 2026, I expect to return to work in good health. I hope to complete my PhD in 2026 too. I am not feeling my best right now. I decided to take… Continue reading

  • Out

    I was out. I had a good time. Feels good at Christmas. (The green frosting on my cupcake made me happy. It makes me think of a Christmas tree.) Continue reading

  • Christmas

    This Christmas, because of my health situation, I did not decorate the Christmas tree or put up Christmas lights. It is an unusual Christmas. I remember the excitement around Christmas in past years. There was an excessive amount of excitement around Christmas when I was a young girl. Growing up in Linden Guyana, it was… Continue reading

  • Thankful

    In 2025, I faced health challenges. I felt older than my years. I now appreciate life more and am thankful for the little things. I communicate this to others all the time. I remember I gave a small speech about being thankful I am alive on my birthday (just before I blew out the candles).… Continue reading

  • Use of Preprints

    In 2025, I hoped major journals would select my papers for publishing. I discovered that the publishing process is a complex one and publishing my papers will take time. I made some of the papers public (can be viewed by anyone) using preprints. I was pleased that a lot of academics and students read the… Continue reading

  • Need for End of Year Review

    In my email, I saw that a year in review was available from LinkedIn. I didn’t open it. It is something I would like to do based on my blog posts. It is a great idea! I also saw a post asking for a word of the year. That is something I will think about… Continue reading

FEATURED

I am working to be published.

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.

I welcome comments. Submit your comments and feedback at any time. I prefer that you use Facebook for comments, but feel free to comment in any of the blogs or on Twitter.
