Pascal was in town Wednesday, so I gave him a scallop. After wondering where pepper comes from (since salt comes from the ocean), he jumped into the river.

I followed him to the waterfall and watched him go over the falls.

Moments later, I spotted a new house in town. Robin’s replacement has moved in, and it’s none other than Fang the wolf! Pretty cool!

This town has actually become quite a good collection of villagers. I currently have Biskit, Marina, Fang, Big Top, Rosie, Nana, Mint, Antonio, Felicity, and Monty. Those last two may be mid, but I like everyone else. And there’s nobody that I strongly dislike. Can’t complain about this lineup!

Felicity told me she’s not into bugs in general, but she does love the cute bugs! I’m not sure which ones those would be, though.

I later had an 80-minute bug-hunting session, and I’ve since posted a gameplay video of that session. If you’d like, you can watch that on Youtube.

I played again today, and a dog without eyes met me at the top of the ramp, telling me he was waiting for to come outside!

It almost sounds a bit threatening if you don’t know Biskit. 😛

Over by the museum, Monty gave me a free pep squad shirt. I didn’t necessarily want it, but I can always sell it.

Down at the Roost, I asked K.K. Slider for a random song. He performed “K.K. Rally” for me.

Marina has been sick with a cold this week, so I gave her some medicine Wednesday and today. Get well soon, Marina!

While I didn’t specifically go on a bug hunt tonight, I did manage (somehow) to catch two tarantulas and an arapaima within 60 seconds!

And right before I wrapped up my game, Big Top asked me for a new catchphrase. I told him to say “528 bells,” which may eventually pay off.

For those who don’t know, 528 bells is a common reward for completing a favor for a villager. So stay tuned!

On Wednesday, I received Robin’s moving-out letter in the mail. She doesn’t call it a goodbye, because she’s sure we’ll meet again somewhere. And that’s probably more true than she knows, since she also lives in my Wild World town.

While nosing through Antonio’s things, I got this curious message that said “Let’s just pretend we didn’t see that…” Except that I could literally see that nothing was inside. 😛

Rosie approached me and gave me a free regal wall. She was on her way to throw it out, but she said it’s better to recycle anyway.

Later on, I held my first bug-catching session of the summer. I started shortly before 11 p.m., because I know more of the valuable bugs come out at 11:00. However, I was a bit disappointed when it suddenly started to rain right when the clock struck eleven! I wasn’t sure which of the bugs the rain would prevent from appearing.

However, I shouldn’t have worried. I was seeing a lot of scarab beetles, and a good mix of the other regular summer bugs too. But the rain also had a positive side-effect: It allowed me to catch two coelacanths!

In slightly over an hour of bug-catching (and a little fishing too), I made about 250,000 bells.

Today, Nana sent me a letter telling me that she was over her cold. She sent me an office locker to say thanks for the medicine I’ve been giving her lately.

I went over to the Roost to check out K.K. Slider’s Saturday night show, and he performed “Comrade K.K.” for me.

Monty asked me for a new catchphrase, and I wanted him to say “it’s poop.” However, the game wouldn’t let me say that. So I added an extra “o” and then it worked out just fine. 😛

While I haven’t yet recorded a bug hunting gameplay session video yet for 2025, I will be doing that soon…perhaps by next week.

Today, I received my bug trophy in the mail, from winning the Bug-Off last weekend. I sold it for 2,450 bells, which is more than I expected it to be worth.

When I visited Robin, I saw that she is moving out of town…and spreading her wings. 😆 Maybe she saw the Bat Signal in the sky, and she has to fly.

I’m okay with her leaving; I do still have her in Wild World, after all.

Back outside, Felicity called me crazy for being up so late…even though it was only 8 p.m.! But then she realized that she was still up too, so she must be the crazy one. Either that, or everyone else.

Biskit was talking about K.K. Slider being at the Roost tonight. But he also was talking about going over there tomorrow to hear a song at lunchtime? K.K. won’t still be there tomorrow, dawg!

But speaking of the Roost, I did head over there myself. Monty was in there too, enjoying some coffee.

I asked K.K. for a random song, and he performed “K.K. House” for me and Monty.

It’s not a bad song; the chorus is the key, and now it lives rent-free in my head. 🏠😉

It was raining in town tonight, and Rosie was sick of the dampness. She even said if hating rain is bad, she wants to be REALLY bad. 😆

Nana was sick with a cold today, so I gave her some medicine. Get well soon, monkey brain.

July starts next week (Tuesday, in fact), and that means prime bug-hunting season is almost here! I’m wrapping up June with 67,650,000 bells in savings. My summer goal will be to earn 2.35 million more bells, so that I reach 70 million bells by September 1st. That shouldn’t be a problem with the way I enjoy my summer bug-hunting nights. 🙂 I’ll also post a video of one of those sessions at some point in July, too.

Good luck with your bug hunting everyone, and I’ll see you in July! 🦋
