Month: January 2017

I found today’s snowballs pretty close to each other, so I decided I should make a snowman. But as I was rolling the snowballs to build them up, I spotted a shooting star up in the sky. There’s a meteor shower tonight!

So I wished upon the star. This isn’t the first time I’ve seen a shooting star in Wild World, but it is the first time I’ve successfully made a wish.

I then continued rolling the snowballs to build the snowman. He was perfect, so he’ll be sending me a gift in the mail. But was he unhappy about one thing: He couldn’t see a snowlady anywhere around. Sorry, but you’re all alone here. *cold chill*

I found a note in a bottle down on the beach, and it was a description of what Heather Smith did on her summer vacation. Of course, this game doesn’t have any online connectivity, so this had to have been put into the game by Nintendo. Is it based on a real person (perhaps a relative of a Nintendo employee) or is it completely bogus? We may never know.

Gracie was standing near her car outside of town hall tonight, and I had a quick chat with her. She was asking if I came to try for a fashionista badge, but I said no. I’ve already earned mine, so I didn’t bother sticking my neck out to try again.

Static asked me for a new catchphrase to replace “tsk tsk” (which he got from Yuka–what a bad influence she is). So I told him to say “unlike you.” It’s a phrase I’ve used before in other Animal Crossing games, and it can result in some funny sentences.

Pudge asked me for a fossil, so I gave him one that Blathers just identified for me. Pudge was standing behind Gracie near town hall, and he was impressed with the mammoth skull.

He only gave me a floral wall in return, which is a pretty disappointing trade for a large fossil.

I then went inside of town hall to make a mortgage payment. I was able to pay 30,000 bells this time, and I only owe 13,000 more! Hopefully I’ll be able to pay that off on Saturday (if I remember to play before Nook’s store closes, at least). I hope to see you then!

Update: Just because I’m weird, I made this GIF:

I’m happy to report that Bill followed through with his plans, and he is no longer a resident of Forest. I got his goodbye letter in the mail today.

Today was La-Di-Day once again, and several of my villagers offered to sing songs for me. It’s my job to pick one (if I like it enough) to become the new town tune. While I didn’t talk to Static enough times to hear him sing, he did comment on how he likes music as much as he likes a good insult.

Yuka was sick with a cold, so I…did nothing. Well, that’s not completely true. I laughed at her, so that’s something. 😛

Since it’s Saturday night, I went down to the Roost to hear some real music. K.K. performed K.K. Love Song for me, which is one of my favorites.

Back outside, the search for a new town tune wasn’t going so well. I didn’t care for any of the songs I had heard…at least until I heard Puddles. She really put her heart into her song and croaked out a winner. Even if she did have a frog in her throat.

But when I heard Kiki’s song, I liked it even better. So I told her she was hired…but oddly enough, she reacted as if I had told her no!

She even started crying! Kiki, this is all a big misunderstanding…

I even went back and double-checked my footage to make sure I told her yes, and I did. Yet she was clearly upset; those were not tears of joy. Oh well. Sorry, Kiki.

All three of the fossils I found today got returned to me, but they only earned me about 5,000 bells in total. So I didn’t make a mortgage payment this time.

Anyway, I returned home to put K.K. Love Song in my stereo, and then I saved and ended my game for the night. Thanks for stopping by, and I’ll see you next time!

The snowman I built last time send me a letter in the mail, along with a snowman carpet. I put it in my house today.

Wendell the starving artist walrus was in town today, looking for food. I caught a yellow perch for him, and he was glad to have something in his stomach.

In return, he gave me the four-way pattern, which is the intersection of the street paths.

Baabara was telling me how she almost became a pop star when she was younger. She said she could sing and dance, but there was one thing she lacked. I then had the option to guess what she was lacking…

I guessed that good looks were the thing she didn’t have, and naturally, she turned into an angry blue fluffball of rage.

When I visited Puddles, she was complaining that every day of her life is more boring than the last. She also asked me for red furniture (as she has been for a while), but Nook’s shop didn’t have any today.

I went to say hello to Static, and he was relieved to see it was me and not Bill who came through his door. I guess I’m not the only one who doesn’t like Bill.

Chevre asked me to make a delivery to Baabara, and I agreed to help. But only because Baabara was literally standing right there.

I dug up three fossils today, and two of them were returned to me. But the other was an apato torso, and it completed the apatosaur!

I made a 25,000 bell payment on my mortgage at town hall, and now I only owe 43,000 more.

On my way back home, I realized I hadn’t seen Bill outside today. So I went inside his house and saw that he was all packed up and ready to move out of town! I did not try to stop him. Fly far, far away, please.

That’s all for now. See you Saturday!
