Christmas
It is Christmas Day! Merry Christmas to one and all! As I mentioned, this year things are a little different. It does not look a lot like Christmas around me, but I will reminisce about things I enjoy about the Christmas season. I enjoy the decorations, I enjoy the food, I enjoy exchanging presents (gifts),… Continue reading

Down Memory Lane Dec17
A black marble composition book….reminds me of Watooka Day School. Students at Watooka Day used these books instead of the standard Guyanese exercise book. There were other special things. Watooka Day was created by the bauxite company (called Guymine when I was there; called Demba originally, which was owned by Alcan Aluminum). The Chinese took… Continue reading

Food At PC
I am thinking of food during my high school years. My high school was a boarding school so I was away from home, living in a dorm with other girls. The school (dining) staff prepared meals for us – three meals a day served at 7:00am (give and take a half an hour), 12 noon,… Continue reading

I am in the mood for some Caribbean cassava pone. This reminds me of the pone my father made for me and my sister. The… Continue reading

Where Are You From
From time to time people ask me where I am from. My accent is a dead giveaway that I am a foreigner. I am not sure which country others associate with my accent. I hope it is Guyana (there are other Guyanese that speak like me especially students from Watooka Day). I do have a… Continue reading

School Biscuits
Months ago, I commented on a post by Visit Guyana on school biscuits provided to children in Guyana. I ate a lot of those (SIMAP) biscuits in Guyana. At President’s College, I ate them as a late-night (10pm) snack. The box came out late at night for us to line up for the cookies. When… Continue reading

Not Indian
Some believe I am Indian (maybe because of my name). Someone once told me there are a lot of girls named Fahmeena in Bangladesh. I am not Indian. My parents are also not Indian. Guyana has lots of Indian citizens (they make up one of the six races in the country — this presentation 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.
