New Year’s Day 2014

It’s New Year’s Day, and Tortimer was standing outside town hall to hand out the New Year’s shirt for 2014.

Tortimer: It's a New Year's shirt. And it's this year's limited-edition model!It’s green and it has a horse on the front and “2014” on the back. The reason for the horse is that 2014 is the year of the horse in the Chinese zodiac. Today is the only day you can get the shirt, so I hope you got yours!

The New Year's Shirt 2014 in Animal Crossing: City Folk (ACCF). Front and back are shown.I had a lot of letters in my mailbox today. One of the letters was my monthly bank statement from the Bank of Nintendo, informing me that I’ve earned 99,999 bells in interest on my account.

But the rest of the letters were New Year’s greetings. One was from “Mom,” who sent me 1,000 bells along with the letter. The others were from my villagers: Melba, Avery, Ribbot, Octavian, Lily, and Rowan.

Jeff, HAPPY NEW YEAR! I was the workout king last year! This year, I'm making a run at workout Chief Extreme Officer of Radness, and I'm giving you a promotion! -H-core for life, Rowan!After a quick, but unfruitful, trip to the city, I returned to water my flowers and talk to villagers. Ribbot told me we’re going to be solid buds again in 2014. That’s good to know, because it’s never a good idea to get on a robot’s bad side.

Ribbot: We're gonna be solid buds again this year. I know it, no compute!Rowan, however, was being more arrogant than friendly. He told me he’s so awesome that it scares him. Allllrighty then.

Rowan: Sometimes I get kinda scared about how awesome I am...rowr!I also switched to my Scott character to put some extra hybrids into his storage. I’ve already grown enough new purple roses that I’ve replaced all the ones I borrowed for Bob’s memorial. I even have several extras. Anyway, I hope you had a good New Year’s Day and I hope 2014 is a great year for you.

I also hope you’ll continue visiting JVGS throughout 2014 and beyond for Animal Crossing blogs and more. Thank you very much for reading and have a great day! 🙂
