Personal Benefits of Plant Care
There are many interesting blogs out there in the blogosphere. I found an interesting blog that reported on the benefits of having houseplants (indoor plants). The homeowner learns patience, gets some practice on establishing a routine, and so on.

When I was young (growing up in Linden, Guyana), I helped Continue reading

High School English
There were problems associated with my English training in high school. I had a few good teachers. There were issues with the book selected for first year and the projects/assignments we received during English classes. We received no instruction for a period of time. In the first year, my English teacher was Ms. Luncheon. She Continue reading

A 5-gallon bucket at President’s College (provided by my family) meant that I could collect “extra” water for daily activities. I wanted a bucket that was larger than the standard bucket sold in Continue reading

Desiderata By Max Ehrmann Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, Continue reading

Fruit at a time in my life
My previous post made me think of fruit-picking at President’s College. Students picked jamoon and maybe mangoes (I don’t remember much about this). I do recall that some students picked fruit during the time slot for meeting with pastoral parents. I recall doing other things during the pastoral time slot – in retrospect, they were Continue reading

Georgetown Memory
Over 30 years ago, my father bought a guitar for my birthday in Georgetown, Guyana. I don’t recall the location of the music store we visited (the street the store was on), but I recall selecting a guitar from about 5 or 6 options. I opted for a yellow guitar. This is a good memory.

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.
