Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (MMPR) Vehicles

MMPR was a programme I watched as a child. My brother liked it more than I did growing up as it was a programme geared more toward boys at the time. As an adult I rewatch it many times and I really enjoy it. My favourite characters would have to be Tommy, Kimberly and Alpha 5. I will take this time before talking about the vehicles in the series to remember Thuy Trang R.I.P who played the yellow MMPR who died on September the 3rd 2001 at the age of 27 in a car accident https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thuy_Trang#Death Now back to the cars in MMPR

  • The RadBug: Radbug stands for Remote Activated Drivingzord for Basic Ultra Geomorphology wow that is a mouth-full. It was a volkswagon Beetle with large canisters and exhaust on it and it was built by Billy Cranston who was the Blue MMPR. It was used because the green ranger who was Tommy was at that stage evil and destroyed the rangers teleportation systems along with other controls in the command centre. The command centre was a place where the rangers could come together to come up with plans on how to defeat evil and also a place where they could regroup. Zordon was their mentor and he was basically a giant floating head in a tube and Alpha 5 was his sidekick who was a robot. The Radbug could go from 0 to 3000mph in less than 3 seconds and could fly. This vehicle was used in a few episodes
  •  The Shark Cycles: The shark cycles were created out of the fossilised fin of great prehistoric shark. The spirit of the great shark resided in the shark cycles. The shark cycles also had battle features. The shark cycles are very similar to motorcycles. They had a shark inspired design. At the back of the cycles there was a large tail fin. The tail of the Red and White cycles were twice as tall as the fins on the other's cycles. The front of the cycles were similar to a sharks head with pointed teeth and noses that was painted on. There appears to be a blade of spikes on the front of the cycles. The back of the cycles had red break lights.
  • The Battle bikes: They were only seen in the background while of the rangers fought a monster. "They were based off the Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops and Mastodon Zords for the Red, Blue and Black Rangers respectively. The Blue and Black Battle Bikes had side cars for the Pink and Yellow Rangers." https://powerrangers.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Arsenal_(Mighty_Morphin_1)
Fun fact: The battle bikes only had 1 appearance on screen, they were never shown in use on screen again. 

Thank you so much for reading my blog post. The Shark cycles would have to be my favourite looking vehicles. I got information about these vehicles from these 2 websites here and here

Self Confidence and How it has affected me

I done this blog post a few months ago  O ne of the main reasons I have anxiety is because I have low self confidence. My low self confidence is more so in the way of my ability in being able to do future tasks rather than in how I look. Some nights I ask myself questions like how will I cope tomorrow if I don't sleep tonight?, will I be able to do the task I set out for myself tomorrow? therefore telling my self that I am not strong enough in such a situation. That sort of thinking lowers my self-confidence. This still happens me at times but now I try and tell myself that no matter what it will be ok. I am strong enough to deal with it. If I feel I am too anxious to think that way I talk to my brother and he tells me they are just thoughts, I will be strong enough to deal with it and then it reassures me that it will be ok and I will get through this. The last few weeks my self-confidence has gotten better and I am taking on more tasks. I feel I have a new found freedom. I used t

Novena to St. Francis Xavier (4th of March to the 12th of March 2020)

Most amiable and most loving St. Francis Xavier, in union with thee I reverently adore the Divine Majesty. The remembrance of the favours with which God blessed thee during life, and of thy glory after death, fills me with joy. I implore thee to obtain for me, through thy powerful intercession, the inestimable blessing of living and dying in the state of grace. I also beseech thee to obtain the special favour I ask of this Novena. (Make your request here...) But, if what I ask is not for the glory of God, and the good of my soul, I pray and desire that which is the most conductive to both. Amen. Pray for us, St. Francis Xavier. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Let Us Pray. O God, Who didst vouchsafe, by the preaching and miracles of Saint Francis Xavier, to join unto Thy Church the nations of the Indies, grant, we beseech Thee, that we who reverence his glorious merits may also imitate his example, through Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen. Pray three times the Our Fath
