I started up the game and checked my mail. A letter from Nibbles was there, saying goodbye.

I went to meet my new neighbor Pompom. She apparently is a Nintendo sales duck, as she was shamelessly promoting Nintendo products.

I then went home to play some Donkey Kong 3 for ACC’s high score contest. At first I didn’t know what I was doing. It’s not your typical DK game; it’s more of a shooter than a platformer. I ended up with a high score of 116,200.

I then caught a few bugs and went by the wishing well. Hank and Kody were there, and they were both depressed.

I saw the summer camper tent and went inside. Cookie was this weekend’s camper.

I played her games for a while. Tip: For the games where the animals tell a story and you have to choose “bear, wolf, or you,” you should always choose “you.” Even if it’s not the right answer, they’ll be flattered and will give you the item for a cheap price. I ended up getting a bonfire and a cooler. And of course we exchanged other items back and forth for a while.

Sorry if this entry is brief. My computer crashed and I lost the more detailed version I had written, and this is just what I can remember of it.

It was a sunny day in Forest. I went to Nookington’s and sold a bunch of items that were clogging up my inventory. I also went around town, talking to animals, pulling some weeds, catching some bugs, and digging up a bunch of gyroids. I found the daily glowing spot and dug up 10,000 bells. I also found the red rock.

I walked by Nibbles’ house and Genji was there with her, steaming mad. I don’t know what she did to make him so angry, but she doesn’t seem to be making friends so far.

I found a cabana table in the dump. I put it in my house so that I can use my journal/calendar. If they’re sitting on the floor, you can’t even use them! So now I can check for upcoming events.

I started up the game and it was raining. I also still had my blue balloon out from last time. I went to go to Nook’s, but it was closed. It was 10:06…just six minutes late! So I went on to meet Nibbles.

I then went home to play some NES Donkey Kong. It’s the game of the week for ACC’s high score contest and I hadn’t even played it this week until now. I ended up with a score of 61,400 points. That’s not very good, and wasn’t even my top score saved in Animal Crossing. But I ran out of time to keep playing, so it will have to do for now.
