Don't Mess with the Orange Power Ranger

Student Creed I will develop myself in a positive manner
and avoid anything that would reduce my mental growth or my physical health.

I will develop self discipline in order to bring
out the best in myself and in others.

I will use common sense before self defense,
and never be abusive or offensive.

This is  Black Belt School.  We are dedicated.
We are motivated.  We are on a quest to be our best.

Life is full of tests, isn't it. Well I proud to announce that I passed my Martial Arts test this weekend and I have graduated to ORANGE BELT. (I had to karate chop a wooden board and everything. Very cool.)

Big Apple Circus

I went to the circus they other day.  When you walk around Manhattan, it just doesn't seem to have room for a circus but take a peek behind Lincoln Center and there it is - The Big Apple Circus!

The circus does a lot for children. The New York School for Circus Arts  works with the NYC Public School system and ArtsConnection and established the Young Talent Circus Training Program which teaches children circus arts.

The circus also has a clown care unit, a group of professional clowns, trained in hospital procedures and circus skills, make rounds as "clown doctors" performing for patients.

They also created Circus of the Senses which is a circus performance specifically for children with special needs.

My grandma is always calling me a clown because I love goofy comedy.  I guess Mayor Bloomberg agrees with her because he made  November 1st (my birthday) "Big Apple Circus Day"!
