My Last Dream
Recently, I have had a lot of dreams (at night when I am asleep). I don’t know why this is so. Could it be because it has been a lot warmer at night recently? My dream last night was interesting. It was about finding and moving into an apartment in Gainesville, Florida. In the dream,… Continue reading

This Day In History
On this day (November 18) in 1978, Jim Jones led his followers to commit suicide in Jonestown, Guyana (more information here: https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/mass-suicide-at-jonestown). I was surprised some past coworkers (in the U.S.) were very familiar with the story. It was why they were familiar with Guyana. Continue reading

BlueSky Account
It is a rainy day here in Linden. I actually appreciate the rain because it made it much cooler. It has been very hot recently! I signed up for a BlueSky account today. It was super easy to sign up for an account using the link on their website. I am still learning about the… Continue reading

BlueSky
A lot of people are signing up for social media platform BlueSky (https://bsky.app/). I read on LinkedIn that over 1 million people signed up recently. One individual said he signed up for an account because Twitter/X is getting nastier and more exhausting. I went to the site to have a look around. It looked good.… Continue reading

Update

Right now, the job market for technology jobs is known to be very tough. People are having a difficult time obtaining a job in tech. This follows the layoffs of… Continue reading

Finance
Sometimes I wonder what my career would have looked like had I stayed in finance. Would I have ended up on Wall Street? Would I have gotten a senior management role? It is impossible to know. I do know that I have no regrets about getting into IT. Continue reading

Times of Trouble
Sometimes things go wrong and the unexpected happens. Panicking during such times does not help things. It is better to stay calm and think of the right actions to take. I like how Ken handled his problems in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ok_ZCW2JdHc. I watch a lot of Ken’s videos. It was the first time he got into… Continue reading

Wishes
I remember reading stories about the granting of wishes when I was a little girl. I always read the things wished for with interest. But, I always wondered why the person didn’t use one wish to ask for more wishes so that he/she could wish for more things. So, that would be my first wish… 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. My main area of specialization is usability/user experience. Click on the ‘usability’ tag to view my posts, including ideas, on usability. 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.
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.
