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! 🦋

The first Bug-Off tournament of the year was held today, and Nat told me he would be glued to his spot until 6:00 p.m.

I decided to keep an eye out for bugs as I made my rounds. Moments later, I was looking for the day’s money rock when a centipede popped out of a rock. I caught it and took it over to Nat. He judged it to be worth 71 points, which was more than the previous record, Marina’s 54-point diving beetle. Nat rewarded me with a black bishop for taking over the top spot.

Honestly, I was surprised that a centipede was good enough to take the top spot. But that didn’t stop Robin from predicting that she would win the Bug-Off.

As I continued my walk around town, I spotted a Raja Brooke butterfly! I quickly tracked it down.

However, I didn’t want to give it to Nat unless someone else overtook the top spot. Why give away a fairly valuable bug if I didn’t have to?

Over by the museum, I was surprised when Big Top called Nana a rat for finding out his secret bug-catching spot! 😆

I circled back around town to the plaza outside of town hall, and Robin told me that people assume she attracts the wrong kind of bugs. 😆

But she assured me that she can lure good bugs too. I don’t even want to know what she’s talking about. 😛

I hung out next to Nat for a while, occasionally checking to see if my centipede had been overtaken. If so, I’d give Nat the Raja Brooke butterfly…but that wasn’t necessary. I held onto the top spot and won the Bug-Off. Nat told me my prize would be sent in the mail. I then went to Nook’s to sell the butterfly…but it only netted me 2,500 bells. I was thinking it was more valuable than that, but oh well.

I returned to the game later tonight, and made my way over to the Roost. Along the way, I had a chat with Mint. The conversation wasn’t very interesting, but I enjoyed how a firefly flew right in between our faces, illuminating Mint’s face.

Once I got to the Roost, K.K. Slider professed his love for me. 😛

After the show, I wrapped up my game for the night. But I’ve actually posted two ACCF videos this week! First, I posted the latest City Folk Moments video:

And then I posted a gameplay video of a 25-minute evening session that I recorded on Wednesday.

I hope you enjoy both videos! I’ll be back with another entry next week, and I hope to see you then! Never Stop Crossing!
