Whitney’s Tune

Yesterday, Angus told me that he thinks of all the people in town, Whitney and Marina are the closest friends. He then added that he never wants to fight with me. (Frankly, I think that’s a bunch of bull.) 🐂

Angus: Even though you bug me sometimes, I don't ever want to fight with you.
Your eyes seem to say you want to fight me right now. 😛

I noticed that my savings account balance reached 21 million bells, thanks to my monthly bank interest (plus one bell I deposited to make it a round number).

Phyllis: Your balance is 50 billion bells. Just kidding! It's actually 21,000,000.

Today was La-Di-Day, and Chief was the first villager to sing for me. However, I wasn’t impressed with his song.

Chief: Make sure you hear my song. It's a manly country ballad, on a pig!

Angus told me that his best song is a ballad, and he said that “hipster kids” won’t get it. 😛

Angus: My best song is a ballad. I don't think the hipster kids will get it.

But even though I spoke with him a couple times, he didn’t actually sing it for me. Oh well, you had your chance, Angus!

After I came out of Angus’s house, I heard a shooting star! I quickly wished on it. Check back next week to see what Wishy sends me!

Jeff wishes on a shooting star in Animal Crossing: Wild World (ACWW) for Nintendo DS.

Anyway, there was only one other villager that sang a La-Di-Day song for me: Whitney.

Whitney: You're about to hear a singing sensation live! Whitney, fribbit!

I liked her song; it sounded unique, with several pauses. So I hired Whitney, and her song is now the official town tune of Forest. I checked the notes over at town hall, so you all can recreate it (and use it) if you’d like.

The notes of Whitney's song, which became the new town tune of Forest on September 12, 2026.

Maple has still been sick with that cold from last week, so I gave her more medicine yesterday and today. Get well soon, Maple!

Down at the Roost, K.K. Slider performed “K.K. Condor” for me. That’s one of my favorites! It’s the o-o-o-o-o song (iykyk).

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: K.K. Condor!

Better Call Sell

It was raining in town yesterday, and Chief was being a bit poetic about the wet stuff.

Chief: Rain tonight... Rain rain rain. My soul! It cries the tears of a million storms!

Of course he got mad at me for “not letting him express any emotion,” which I didn’t do at all. But that’s Chief for you. (And Wild World crankies in general.)

Meanwhile, Derwin was reminiscing about the town he grew up in. He said it had a train stop, and there was a monkey who worked at the train station. He’s clearly referring to Porter, in a nice throwback to the GameCube game. 🐒

Derwin: And there was the coolest monkey who worked at the station, derrrr!

A new “Talking to Myself” message posted to the bulletin board gave a recipe for homemade water! 😆

-Talking to Myself- I filled an empty water bottle with ordinary tap water and... PRESTO! Homemade water!

I played again tonight, and it was still raining! ⛈️

It was Flea Market day, but I wasn’t planning on buying anything. But when I saw Pippy’s Nintendo bench, I was curious to see how much it would cost. It’s already a very cheap item to begin with, and it’s one that I’ll often buy to give as a gift. As it turns out, Pippy was selling it for just 30 bells!

Pippy: I call sell you my Nintendo bench for only 30 bells!
Typo alert! Better call sell. 😉

So of course I bought it, and I’ll probably regift it once again at some point.

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

Maple: I feel better! I... I can feel my toes again! Thank you SO much!

Down at the Roost, Mr. K.K. Slider performed “Mr. K.K.” for me. Is it an autobiographical song? If only I could understand the lyrics…

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: Mr. K.K.!

Wasted Fruit

Mom sent me a letter today, talking about a fruit-only diet. She encouraged me to try it (she sent a cherry attached to the letter). In the spirit of her letter, I decided to eat the cherry instead of selling it. I don’t need the 500 bells that badly, after all.

Dear Jeff, Have you heard of the fruit-only diet? You can eat as much as you want and not gain an ounce! You should try it! -Mom

But moments later, I realized something. Forest doesn’t have any cherry trees! That may have been my first cherry, and I usually try to plant my first one of each foreign fruit so that I’ll have at least one tree of each type. Forest doesn’t have any cherry trees or peach trees. Oops! Well, maybe I’ll get another one someday. 😆

I visited Derwin, and he asked if I could make my house a little more cool. That’s kind of rude…but I suppose I could ask the same of him!

Derwin: Don't you think you could make your house a little more...cool?

Next, I visited Chief. He asked me to guess how he was feeling, and I guessed that was he was doing fine. That was correct, apparently because he just ate a bunch of garlic? 😆

Chief: Well, I did just eat a bunch of garlic.
The smell of victory is in the air.

For answering correctly, he rewarded me with a pep squad shirt.

The last fireworks festival of the year was held tonight, and Tortimer gave me a sparkler.

Tortimer: Tonight's the last Fireworks Show of the summer, sprout!

Frobert wasn’t taking the news very well about tonight being the last fireworks show of the summer.

Frobert: What?! Today's the last day of the Fireworks Show?!

He even said his life is meaningless without colorful explosions! Wow.

Frobert: But my life is meaningless without colorful explosions, fribbit..

Fortunately, fireworks don’t force K.K. Slider to cancel his show in this game. (I’m looking at you, New Horizons.) So I went down to the Roost, and the singing dog performed “K.K. Ska” for me.

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: K.K. Ska!

Over at town hall, I found a red bar shirt in the recycle bin. After that, I wrapped up my game for the night.
