Month: April 2015

It was a nice, sunny day in Forest, and Frobert the frog was loving the great weather.

But Friga wasn’t in such a good mood. She was complaining about not having friends, saying she watches rugby and eats tempura all by herself.

Down on the beach, I found a crash-landed UFO and an unconscious Gulliver. It’s kind of funny that the UFO can endure long flights between planets, yet can’t handle getting hit by a pebble.

I had to talk to Gulliver over and over, but I was eventually able to wake him up.

I handed him his spaceship part; that will allow him to repair his ship and return home. Of course, his ship won’t disappear until tomorrow whether you give him his part or not.

In return, he gave me a Metroid. As you can see, it’s not my first one.

I had to shoot down 19 UFOs before I got my very first Metroid back in 2012. But since then, Gulliver has started to give me a Metroid nearly every time I shoot down his UFO! I guess he’s making up for all the trouble he caused me in the beginning.

Fang sent me a letter to thank me for the medicine I’ve taken him recently. A blue clock was attached to the letter. I’m not sure how that fit in the mailbox, but I won’t complain.

Twiggy was talking about her old town, and how they used to throw parties for any old reason they could think of. Each spring, they would throw a party anytime a flower bloomed. In fact, they once threw a party over crabgrass!

Lily asked me to make a delivery to Broccolo, and I had just seen him a few seconds before, so I knew it would be a quick job. Once I returned, she thanked me by giving me 552 bells. There it is again! It seems that most of the times I get cash rewards for doing a job, it happens to be 552 bells! If you’ve been a long-time reader of this blog, you may remember me mentioning this before. There must be some significance to the number 552. Or the game’s random number generator is nowhere near random.

I later ran into Lily once again by Nook ‘n’ Go. She gave me a bit of a motivational speech. She said even when times are tough, look for the small things that make you happy. And she also had a flea on her.

All indications were that today was a UFO day! And indeed, at 6:07, the UFO flew from west to east. I chased after it and hit it shortly before it could zoom away!

Even though I killed two gold roses in the process, that’s okay. I have extras to replace them. I believe this was my first UFO sighting since March of last year, and I believe this is my first UFO shot down in almost two years! That makes this my 27th UFO in total, and obviously, the first one of 2015. I found the spaceship part over by Mallary’s house.

I’ll have to play tomorrow to exchange my spaceship part for one of Gulliver’s items, so I should be back with another entry then. Of course, I’m not used to playing ACCF two days in a row, so hopefully I won’t forget!

The fishing tournament was held today, but I played much too late in the day to participate. However, Chip was kind enough to tell me that Bunnie won the competition.

Fang was still feeling sick, so I bought him some more medicine. But he told me that I should continue to feel sorry for him.

Angus asked me to catch a mole cricket for him, and I declined. He wasn’t very happy with me.

At the Roost, I checked out a Saturday night performance from K.K. the singing dog. Usually I ask for a random song, but this time I had a certain song in mind: I requested Steep Hill.

Broccolo told me about a fight that Lily and Bunnie had recently. He said they were throwing lemonade in each other’s faces and slapping each other! Wow! I always miss the good stuff!
