Thursday: So I went back to school today after a two day vacation for... rosh hashanah? I know it was a Jewish holiday, but I'm not exactly sure which one. And even though it was Thursday, it totally felt like a Monday, which totally threw me off.
So tomorrow I have a Calculus test, and you know what that means.....CALCULUS EXTRA HELP!!!
I love calculus extra help so much. My teacher is super funny and there seems to be a pattern in the kids that come to extra help, which is pretty cool because we've sort of formed this little after school math extra help clique type thing, I don't know what to call it, but I love it, and I have so much fun hanging out with them after school, learning about math. Just for my own rememberance purposes - (Carlos, Ankit, Shreya especially, and a few other kids). And now I have to study. :(

Silver Rebels: Adventures Beyond the Limits of Age
Description
This imaginative collection celebrates ageing as a new frontier of freedom, humour, courage and limitless possibility. Across a sequence of surreal cinematic worlds, groups of joyful older adults reject conventional expectations and transform retirement into an extraordinary playground filled with movement, friendship and adventure.
The protagonists race through undulating chessboard landscapes on modified walkers, knit scarves while parachuting above floating windmills, compete in vehicles carved from giant wheels of cheese, climb frozen fantasy architecture, ride bicycles beneath the sea and cross enormous landscapes shaped like mouths, teacups, musical instruments and inflatable cities. Other scenes place them paddleboarding through a flooded library, kitesurfing across mirrorlike water, skateboarding over volcanic terrain, ziplining through a dental wonderland, racing motorcycles among meteorites and celebrating athletic victories on floating cosmic islands.
Despite the impossible settings, the emotional core remains recognisable and deeply human. Laughter, companionship, determination and curiosity connect every image. Protective equipment, athletic clothing and expressive faces reinforce the idea that these seniors are not passive observers but fearless participants, confidently entering environments usually associated with youth, risk and physical daring.
Warm golden light, rich colours, wide cinematic compositions and highly detailed environments create a visual language that combines photorealism with playful surrealism. Familiar objects are enlarged, transformed or placed in unexpected contexts, turning everyday memories, hobbies and domestic symbols into spectacular arenas for exploration. The result is an optimistic reflection on longevity and active ageing, suggesting that imagination does not diminish with time and that adventure can continue in endlessly surprising forms.

For a class on experimental media. The first assignment was to use a camera to capture the world in a way that the human eye cannot, with Vertov's "Man with a Movie Camera" as the inspiration. Vertov's film, made in 1929, was one of the first to use experimental filming and editing techniques to transcend these limits of human vision.

Each and Every Team Had a selection of High Powered Racing Machinery that would along with the Rider take on the Might of Brands Hatches' Grand Prix Circuit for a Gruelling 8 Hours Straight.
While Some Teams had as many as Four Riders to make the job a Little Bit Easier other Teams Had decided to go with just Two Riders for 4 Hours Each knowing they Had the Skills and Determination to Keep Racing Hard.
The Championship was in is Last Race of the Season here at Brands and Whoever Won this Final Event would take the No Limits Bike Racing Championship Crown.

Just like Old School Le Mans the Riders all Lined Up on the Opposite Side of the Pitlane with their Respective Teams Holding onto the Bikes Ready for them to Blast off into the Distance around the Circuit.
A Loud Bang from the Calcian Signalled the Start of an 8 Hour Endurance Race and each Rider Ran Towards their Bikes Fired them Up and Set off onto the Race Track.
During the First Hour All Riders Made it through the First Opening Laps without any Problems and already many of them were getting up to Speed while some other Riders Preferred to nurse their Machinery for the First Hour to Avoid anything Breaking or Failing on thease High Powered Machines.
As Hour two Approached Everyone was still going strong and The Riders were Each Getting into a Really Good Rhythm of the Grand Prix circuit while other Teams had opted to Head to the pits to swap Riders and Give themselves more of a chance to take Victory with a selection of different Talents and Bikes available.
The Start of Hour Three saw a lot of Different Battles Going on thought the field and on the Back Straight there was some Close Wheel to Wheel Action Between Every Rider traveling at Speeds close to Nearly 100mph. Some Riders were Pushing so Hard that Even their Front Wheels Rose into the Air Making for some Epic and Thrilling Moments. An Overtake by Rider Number 97 on 36 was the Highlight so Far.
Hour Four and Still Each Rider was not Giving Up on the Chance of Victory with Half of the Endurance Race Completed by Now it was Time for Another Rider Change and with Many Teams Heading for the Pits Once Again Each New Rider Ventured Out onto the Brands Hatch GP Circuit it Beautiful Sunlit Conditions Although thease Must Have Been Playing Havoc with the Visibility for the Riders. Non the Less After Just One Retirement Earlier Due to an Engine Fire and a Marshall that should Have Really Been More Prepared. the Remaining Riders Soldered on.
The Fifth Hour was now Upon them and after a Very Hectic and Fast set of Laps Earlier Many Riders were setting down into their Positions to make sure the Bike they were on would Survive to the End. Druids was a Place to witness some Incredible Overtakes During this Time with the Light Levels Lowering and The Riders Really Looking like they were Pushing Hard and Encouraging their Machines to solder onto Victory.
Hour Six and with the Light Levels Now Falling even Lower it looked like this Endurance Race would be Ending in Nearly Dark Conditions as the Rider Kept on Going. The Few Retirement's Earlier on during Hour 2 and 3 were now just a Memory in the Surviving Riders Minds who all had One Goal in Mind. Get This Bike to the End of The Race.
Hour Seven and by now the Light was Nearly all But Gone with the Last Rays of Sunshine Disappearing Entirely from the Tops of Druids and yet Despite this now disadvantage i terms of Having a lot less light The Riders Still Continued to Push Hard and Fight their was To Victory in the Closing Stages as the Race Reached its Climax.
The Final Hour was Finally here and Every Rider who Had Been Concentrating Hard all Day was Now in a Position to Push Hard for that Final Hour of Glory that would mean the Difference Between either a Race Victory or a Race Loss. As The Minuets Slowly Ticked Down and The Last Light of Day Had been Long Extinguished from the Circuit. it was the Team of (Delkevic Racing's Liam Marchant / Gary Johnson / James Edwards and Luke Scott who took a Resounding Victory after 232 Laps and a Gruelling 8 Hour's of Racing 2 For Each of The Riders.
