Sufia Sadaf Running for President Dear neighbors, In the three years as the Sawtelle A unit Rep I got an opportunity to work with you to organize various community-wide events, foster mental health, inclusivity, community engagement, and work towards creating a sustainable environment. The past year has been especially challenging for all of us, which has motivated me to run for the UASRA's President position. We aim to increase community programs through transparent and supportive budgeting. We will engage community members who have expressed interest in volunteering for the free food program to ensure that this sustainable service continues to bring help to our families and food to our tables. We will also work to support our neighbors who struggle financially and advocate for affordable housing, a safer and secure living environment, safe and hygienic zones for animal relief and recreation, and expanded green & sustainable resources. We will interface with UCLA/ResLife office for efficient communication. With your support, our UASRA team will consist of empathetic and supportive resident volunteers. Please also vote for and support our board members team- Yan, Aleks, Gena and Maria. We thank you for your trust and promise to do our best to create a happy and supportive community.

I will post here some photos I made while learning how to do it. You can too :) The Ocean

Hi fellow gardeners, I finally had time to make one more compost bin for the garden plots on the Mentone side: There was some soil under the old compost pile, so I gathered it next to the compost drum. So please take if you need! I brought some branches from a friend from the neighborhood, who has trees. You can use those for plants that need support for climbing, like peas, tomatoes... I put them by the compost bins on both sides, Mentone and Keystone. Enjoy! :)

I will read it to my Kindergarten students and one day to my kid, in hope they might be the ones who are really going to change our world for the better. Jennifer makes really good masks. The best ones I had so far! I know, it's weird to get excited about a mask, but what the heck :) These handmade recycled cards are amazing! Sufia made them.

Here you will find all the goods I want to sell to you.

Just recently I discovered an instrument called the Chapman Stick. I really like the richness of the sound and how it enables the musician to be creative.

... two packages of mixture for making Brazilian cheese balls. I bought a different one we usually use.

Hi fellow gardeners! Some time ago I realized how important soil bacteria is for the health of the soil and therefore the health of plants. In the following video I learned how to create soil bacteria and much more:
