Meet ASU Odyssey: Shiaira Bradley

Hi ASU community! My name is Shiaira Bradley and I am beginning my journey as a reporter for the Arizona State University Odyssey. I am a junior in high school and I have joined online as a way to delve into the world of journalism. I love writing and can cover pretty much anything: politics, health & wellness, fashion, you name it!

Here's a little bit about myself: I hail from California but I have lived in Arizona almost my entire life. I love music and can listen to almost anything from rap to rock to alternative. I enjoy trying new things and going places I've never been before. I'm always down to try something new!

In my free time, I enjoy writing fictional works (I published my first novel in 2017!) and I hope someday to be a bestselling author. I also have created a podcast called Spoken Mentalities where my cohost and I talk about issues affecting minority communities. I also enjoy reading, playing improv games, and binge watching 90s sitcoms.

Get to know all of our reporters by reading their monthly "Meet the Reporter!"

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
