YAY NO WORK FOR ME! =]






Moving right along, it's been a pleasure blogging with Ms. Moon and Ms. Moon's SOCIALS 10 BLOG B PW 2007-2008 STUDENTS!

NUMBER NINE TO SHINE! WOAH! THIS RHYMES

Hi guys!









Wow, I can't believe i'm on my 9th blog! that's crazy! I never thought I'd get here.









Well guys, here is the moment you've all been waiting for!!!









Bibbobo gets another SHOCKING adjustment. he was just getting use to moving to a pot..









and then..














I GAVE HIM HIS MAKEOVER! (Finally, I know right?) I've been talking about it since the first blog, and finally! I did it. It look lots of effort AND searching through my tree makeover kit, but here it is! Voila.









Bibbobo's Before and After Pictures:



































































































BEFORE










































AFTER













Yes, it is amazing! I know. Bibbobo is very pleased with it! Or so he seemed... I vaguely remember hearing tree cries in the middle of the night and hearing something scream "gosh I Hate my Makeover!!!"...








...Nah I probably imagined it. Anyways, I went through so much to find these expensive makeover materials (AKA my garage, and AKA my christmas tree decorations).





And here it is! The end result.





...Actually now that I think about it.. I'm not sure if Bibbobo screamed with joy or cringed with fear when i showed him himself in the mirror...








Anyways! I am very happy with the work I have done with him! Muahahah! GENIUS I TELL YOU! GENIUS!








Bibbobo is quite happy in the pot as well. He likes that there are no annoying pesky creatures there to bother him anymore. All the spiders, worms, cockroaches(?)(ew?) , and other slimy creatures of lower intelligence than Bibbobo cannot speak the same language as us, and he was telling me how all the bugs are so rude, and then walk on him and his personal space, as well as his roots! They have NO CONSIDERATION for him whatsoever. Bibbobo will ask them politely to move, and then just hiss at him. study creatures.





One time, a spider almost decided to plant her eggs on him! He scared her away however my shaking his leaves.





Bibbobo loves the privacy of the pot, and he likes that their are no other animals in their. (Besides ants, but their so scared, they immediately run away). Bibbobo is living the high life, with his own private pot!


EDIT: PICS HERE





Well That's all for this 2nd last blog! T.T TEARS

Major Change!

My tree died. the end.



I fail the assignment.. Sorry guys =[







*SPOILER ALERT*



















































Ha just kidding! My tree is doing really good! Berries arew continuing to grow on him! the first sign that he's growing.



I came to a major decision today. I decided to agree with my mom and move the plant from our backyard to a pot. 2 main reasons dictated this action:



1. We might move houses, so we can ACTUALLY take our tree with us if we move~ I don't want to leave Bibbobo behind!



2. According to my mom If the tree grows to big it'll break our cement.. and that's a "no no". (Pshh whatever)



3. It looks "ugly" in our backyard if it gets to big.. while in a pot it'll look nice and "cute"(?)





As you can see the only choice that dictated me is the first one.. The other 2 are of no importance to me.



Anyways, transferring the plant from the backyard was quite tedious and disturbing. everytime I would take a shovel to put some soil in the pot and like.....5 worms would fall into the pot. (as well as many other squirmy creatures). I kept having to dump out the soil back into the yard! Bleh! the soil also kept falling out of the pot, because the styrofoam I put didn't fit in the slot! Anyways, after much effort i finally replanted Bibbobo.



WAIT..Unfortunately there was one more incident =[.. or so I thought...DUN DUN DUN....





As I dug up Bibbobo, i thought I took him out nicely without breaking any roots. However, to my horror, i ripped off accidentally two GIANT roots.



I was devastated! I thought Bibbibo was going to die!



Anyways, I planted him int the pot, and i watered it. I only hoped that Bibbobo would do well.



However, after I planted him, I went back and examined the two giant roots. When I looked at them again..I realized they were completely different roots. I pulled one out, and it was attached to a Nut!!! (dam squirrels!). I was relieved though that Bibbobo didn't lose any roots.



Bibbobo is still in a state of shock, but hopefully he'll be fine! I think I may have watered him to much! But it's not my fault. It's completely my mom's! eh! Mrs. " I-Know-Everything-About-Gardening". She told me to water it quite a bit. I mean i know that you have to water it more when you plant it in a new place but WOW! IT WAS QUITE A BIT.





EDIT: MORE PICS







Well that's all for today!

Blog Numbero Siete!

Hello Fellow T-bloggers,

W'ere getting close to the end, here's blog number 7!



Basically, my trees doing good! I"ll post pictures later. *Running out of things to say, haha*. Well My tree isn't dead! So i'm definitely going to pass this assignment.






This has been a great asignment, among many which are tedious and boring.






So Bibbobo has just come back from filming tree-vivor. He cannot disclose any information of what happened!






I'm dying to know though. Eh, whatever. I'll just wait until it airs! on Treetelevision.






Everything tree!






Anyways, Bibbobo has grown again! props to him! He's been very grouchy lately though. I think he may be starting tree-berty. It's a very complex process. I'm just keeping away from him for now. I semi-Quarantined him.






When Bibbobo is normal once again, I have decided to recite and ODE for him!






Oh Bibbobo



The great tree of the forest.



Trees sway, back and forth



in the coolness of the swamp



Animals, from all over the world



gather around Bibbobo in honour of him.



The great tree



that provides us with comfortable and shelter



whenever we are cold and alone



Oh! Great Bibbobo! share with us some of your wisdom!



The great tree of strength, prosperity and perservance



has endured the weather conditions are harshness of the spirits



in this great land of green



The great Bibbobo lives



watching over us.






There we go! it was some-what of a "spur of the moment" ode, so sorry if it's not up to anyone's standards! Hope it was decent =]






I still have to give my tree his makeover! I haven't forgotten! Yes i know a bit late. But i've been busy with lots of exams, etc.






Also, i think i should start watering Bibbobo! no rain for a while.. haven't watered him at all! I should probably do that tomorrow, hah!





Edit: Here are some PICS.











Well that's all for today,

Half Way there!

Hello Fellow T- Bloggers!



I Just realized- 5 more blogs too go =[




then no more tree blogging on Bibbobo. You will all still remember him....in spirit. He will still continue to do good, even without the support of his online tree bloggers!






I just realized I only have 22 minutes to write this blog, because I have to leave at 5:10. So I better do some major writing.




Well! I just measured Bibbobo! He's grown like..0.1(ish) cm! YAY!




Unfortunately i might start to have to do some work on Bibbobo. It hasn't rained in a while. I might have to..




....


.......




*Gasp* I CAN'T SAY IT.




NOO.




I CAN'T.






*shivers* WATER HIM!




Yes, the day might come soon, that I, Stergios Darntanis, WILL BE REDUCED TO PEASANTRY WORK.




No, i'm totally kidding. But unfortunately I will have to start watering him soon. (poor me, I'm so lazy). Bibbobo's been doing well. He just got back from his Tree-vivor casting call, but a 3 Tree-llion dollar contract binds him from saying anything to me unfortunately. He has been practicing his modeling poses for the future though. Out of all teh other weeds and vegetables growing in our garden he definitely stands out.t He's always practicing his poses, trying to be FIERCE.




Here are a few pictures in his portfolio:























Aren't they amazing? THE INTENSITY, THE ENERGY, The variety of poses to choose from! WOW. I"m blown away. In every picture he brings a different emotion. It's great.




Bibbobo seems to be doing good health wise. A few days though I was starting to think that maybe I should go water him.




However, my mom told me that she once used a shovel to dig up some soil underneath Bibbobo, and all the soil was completely wet, and if I watered anymore, the roots would start to rot.


So nevermind about the watering part, haha.


However Bibbobo himself does look quite dry. Meh, whatever. If he's healthy he's healthy.


IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT.


Im quite surprised actually that the little children in my neighborhood have not destroyed Bibbobo.

Let me give you a little blurb about my neighborhood.


When i was a little kid, I was THE ONLY little kid in my neighborhood. So I WOULD never have anyone to play with close by.


About 3 years ago, and influx of families looking for a cheaper house in the East side moved to our neighborhood. They all had about 2-3 Children from the ages of 5-11. Since 3 years ago our neighborhood has NEVER gone a day without being quiet. It's extremely annoying.


Anyways, sometimes they all go out of control. They throw their toys all around the neighborhood and sometimes go into our garden and play there. We've had to shoo them out many times before they destroy our plants.


Let's pray it never happens, and Bibbobo is spared from the fury of these crazy little children. Bibbobo is tough, but not yet stable enough to survive whatever they have going for him.



Anyways, that was my little rant for today.


With a minute to spare before i have to leave;



THAT'S ALL,

History of The Norweigian spruce Trees

So for this blog,



I decided to dig deeper and find out more about the origins of Bibbobo.



So apperently he's a Norweigian Spruce Tree. Thanks Ms. Moon =] Here's some info.





--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The norweigian spruce tree is an evergreen tree that is native to Europe.The tree can grow up to 35-55 M tall. The leaves are needlelike, and are dark green on all sides. The pine cones are 9-17 Cm long(The longest of any spruce) and have blunt , triangular scale tips.



It goes throughout Northeast of Europe from Norway and Poland Eastward and southward to the alps. Somewhere Eastward they mix with Siberian Spruce trees just entering Russia. In South Eastern Europe The Norweigian spruce trees tend to have larged cones and more pointed scales.



The tallest measured tree is 63 m tall in Perucica Virgin Forest, Sutjeska National Park, Bosnia-Herzegovina.
The oldest tree known is a Norweigian Spruce discovered in Sweden in 2008. It has carbon dated as old as 9500 years old!






The Norwegian Spruce Tree is one of the most popular spruce trees that is widely planted both indoors and outdoors. It is used for forestry and paper production, as well as ornamental trees in homes, as well as parks and gardens.



Interesting fact:

Every Christmas the capital of Norway gives the cities of Washington D.C, New York, and London With a Norweigian spruce tree, to express thanks for their help in World War II.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Well if you actually had the patience to read that, good for you! Lol. It's actually quite interesting. I thought it might be some boring random information on the tree, but i actually learned a lot just by reading a small section about the Norweigian spruce!



Now When Bibbibo comes back from his casting call I can Show off all my cool tree- Knowledge. =] yay. I'm one-up on him with his "human" Knowledge. HA!





That's all,




















Ps. I will add some new pictures of Bibbibo soon! Be Patient!

Hi Everyone









Bye everyone.
Haha no i'm kidding. But i literally don't have anything to say about my tree again. I mean, to be honest, NOTHING really exciting is happening with it.






I am worried that it might not grow well. We have very poor soil in our backyard, so I am quite concerned that my tree will not do well.






I am actually swaying in the direction that maybe planting my tree in a giant pot may not be such a bad idea.









*new topic*



I was actually starring at my tree for a while today, and i realized that my tree looks exactly like this person.






Take a look.
























































I know what you're thinking. They look EXACTLY the same =].






I'm sure they'd make great friends, haha.






*New topic*




So anyways, Tree-yra Trunks sent us back a letter saying that unfortunately Bibbobo is disqualified because he's not the right age qualification. He's only been 3 weeks planted, and the qualifications "clearly state" apperently(pshh, ovbiously it wasn't visible enough) that trees must be atleast 8 weeks planted. that's the minimage age for tree modeling(24 weeks planted is the maxmium age! that's a bit too old if you ask me) They could've been clearer!




On a brighter note, We got a call back from the produces of tree-vivor and they told us Bibbobo made it -pass the first round of auditions(they chose 128 the lucky tree contestants!) And the audition process is still continuing. Bibbibo is currently at the private casting call. He cannot discret me any info on what's going on, he can only call to say hello. Hopefully he makes it in!






Well that's basically it.




Until next blog;
