Everyone rushed by
Would I stop and appreciate a beautiful thing? That is what I asked myself as I read the piece on an experiment at a DC metro station.

Being Merry
I recall there was a lot of music and singing in Guyana. “School children” sang patriotic/national songs in school. Neighbors sang along to music from the radio or from their “music system.” Everyone seemed to know “oldies.” Riders sang along to music in minibuses etc. I remember the music piece “PC Nights” that was based Continue reading

Thankful
I was a little sick over the last two days. I feel better now and am listening to music. The music reminds me of the hospital. When I was in the hospital, beautiful gospel music filled the air for a time. One of the songs was ‘Goodness of God’ by CeCe Winans. Just as CeCe 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.
