October is Here

October is here, and the first thing I noticed when I started up the game tonight was the grass. The brownish, ugly, autumn grass.

The new brownish shade of grass color.I had a letter from Jack, the czar of Halloween, in the mail. He told me to start stocking up on candy for the Halloween festivities on October 31st.

October 31st is on its way! Time to get ready for Halloween! Round up all the candy you can so you can give it to me on the big night! -Jack (Czar of Halloween)You can buy candy in Nook’s store each day. Since I only have Nook ‘n’ Go, there was only one piece for me to buy today.

Tom Nook: Yes, a yellow candy. It costs 320 bells.On the map, I noticed Forest has ten villagers again. The new resident is named Chester. I was hoping for a cheetah (that eats Cheetos), but he’s a panda. Pandas are cute in real life, but for some reason, I’m not a fanda of the pandas in Animal Crossing. I’m the same way with koalas.

Chester: Whew... Unpacking sure is hard work! I think I'm actually breaking a sweat for the first time in years...He seems nice enough, though. Maybe he’ll grow on me.
