International Friendship Day
I learned from a post in Facebook that the UN designated July 30 International Friendship Day. The organization (Poetry Book Society) had a great idea for this year’s Friendship Day: have team members identify poems that are friends to them. I decided to join in. After some thought, I decided to report that the poem… Continue reading

Known For
Three things that stand out about me (I need to toot my horn from time to time): I like to understand and make sense of things. I also have good ideas. My Lessons Project is one of my ideas/projects that stand out. Just aggregating the various lessons was good. The statistics papers I had out… 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

AI, Experimental Work
I see AI all around. A Google search now includes an AI overview (as shown below). Another example is AI in Paint (see below). I know that people are also using AI to assist with writing. Although I learned from articles and posts that provide useful information, I need to learn more about writing using… Continue reading

Life Lesson
Question: What’s the hardest lesson you’ve had to learn as an adult, and how has it shaped you? One of the hardest things I’ve had to learn as an adult is that life isn’t fair (the most unfair things happen when you least expect it). I have seen many times that people don’t always get… Continue reading

I viewed apartments, selected the apartment I would live in, and provided the required information for the rental application. I organized my move and bought furniture for my new place. I lived… 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

What bothers me
The WordPress writing prompt for today is: What bothers you and why? After much thought, I decided to write about competitive behaviors that bother me. Competition is all around – we compete for jobs, for promotions, and so on. Some people go overboard during a competition. I am usually put off by “extreme” competitive behavior.… Continue reading

Lemons and Limes
Incidentally, I saw a post on the benefits of lemons and limes by WebMD just a few minutes ago. I posted about lemons just a few hours ago. The diagram/chart in the post from WebMD showed some interesting benefits of both limes and lemons. I was surprised by some of them. I did not expect… 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.
