  • Earth Day

     Good afternoon from Linden, Guyana! It is Earth Day today… This Earth Day  I am thinking of the outdoors. I am thinking of the pitter patter of rain And the earthy smell from the Earth when it rains I am thinking of days by the lake Just enjoying the calmness of the water I am… Continue reading

  • Explaining the Steps

     I stumbled upon the question: ‘What happens in your head when you add 37 and 48?’ on Twitter/X. I was surprised by the question. I usually hear questions such as: ‘What are your thoughts on X?’ or ‘What is your thinking on Y?’ but never: ‘What happens in your head when you add A and… Continue reading

  • Cream Soda

     It’s cream soda today. I always liked cream soda. When I was young, it was one of my favorite Icee drinks. Continue reading

  • Fruit

     Good morning from Linden! It is a good Sunday morning. I feel like having fresh fruit, maybe mangoes or sugarcane. Over the past two weeks or so, I had no fresh fruit. Instead, I had drinks made with fruit which, I guess, was a substitute for fresh fruit. I had the banana Icee (the local,… Continue reading

  • Submitted Poems

    Good morning from Linden, Guyana! I submitted a bunch of poems for publishing yesterday. I hope the publisher likes what I submitted (it is well received). Continue reading

  • Dinner

    I am having cook-up rice or just cook-up for dinner. It is homemade rather than store-bought. I eat a lot of cook-up (which is very popular in Guyana). I like that there is variety – different types of cook-up such as red peas cook-up, black eye cook-up, and channa cook-up. The meat used could also… Continue reading

  • Technical Writer

    Sometime ago, I considered applying for Technical Writing roles so I could have a lucrative side job while I work on completing my PhD. I applied for several jobs but did not obtain a position. I am very surprised by the number of people who are either already in a Technical Writer role or seeking… Continue reading

  • Motivation

    Good morning from Linden, Guyana! In a post on social media yesterday, Northcentral University (now National University) asked what song, album or playlist motivates me to complete tasks such as school assignments or projects. I was surprised by the post but decided to answer. I will preface providing one of my favorite motivation songs by… Continue reading

  • Limes vs Lemons

    Good morning from Linden, Guyana! I went out for a short walk today. It appears that it would be a good day. Back in the U.S., I used a lot of lemons. (Do you recall my post on lemons? See it here: https://fahmeenaodetta.blogspot.com/2023/07/lemons.html). Recently, I wanted lemons but got limes instead. I don’t mind using limes… Continue reading

  • More information

    More information or knowledge should benefit a person. More information about something should lead to improved understanding and could also improve behavior. But, sometimes, more information could lead to more confusion. The information may be conflicting or not the right type of information. I mentioned this issue in a post way back in 2014. I… 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.
