Buying Turnips from Joan

While in Re-Tail today, I saw Tabby and said hello. Wow, I just can’t get over her face.

Tabby: How can I not buy at least one thing today, killer! There's so much here!And last Friday night, Valeria gave me a bamboo shoot, which I planted in my town. It’s starting to grow.

My bamboo is growing!And I was playing in the morning today, which is a rare thing for me. So when I saw Joan, I decided to buy some turnips. She was selling them for 107 bells each; I bought 200.

Joan: So 200 turnips comes out to be... 21,400 bells altogether. Do you wanna buy them?Big Top had given me a pineapple bed, but not soon after, Tex wanted to buy it with all of his money.

Tex: Well, I'm desperate. So if I can have your pineapple bed, I'll give you ALL my money.Unfortunately, he only had 248 bells to his name.

Tex: How much exactly...? Oh no, I've only got 248 bells. Er, is that enough for you?I still sold it to him. My pockets tend to fill up quickly on my daily walks, so exchanging items for money is a helpful thing.

Then later on tonight, my friend Wendy told me that she’s now able to view her town history at her town tree. So she invited me over to see it with her.

- The History of Oakville - June 9th, 2013: Mayor Wendy took office. June 11th, 2013: Eugene moved to town.After I returned to my town, I caught a few emperor penguins butterflies and a horned elephant. I sold them and went into the post office. I just barely had enough to pay off my house expansion! So I decided to expand the left-side room of my house. It’s currently 4×4 spaces, so this will bump it up to 6×6, which is much more manageable. It will be done tomorrow.

Tom Nook: This work will be fully completed by tomorrow morning. I'm so sure you must be very excited, yes, yes!

K.K. Island

When I checked my mail today, I got a letter from my friend Wendy. And the letter played a song! It was the Song of Healing (from Zelda). Apparently, you can do that with melody paper. I never even paid attention to that stuff before!

Timmy: Ah, some melody paper! A fine item, yes?While working in the cafe today, I had two out-of-towners come in for coffee. One was Kiki, the black pig-like cat who I grew to like when she lived in my City Folk town. The other was Baabara, who just recently mocked me viciously in the GameCube version of Animal Crossing.

Baabara: I'll have a coffee, please. Mocha roast!Tortimer also came in for coffee. I didn’t have any notes on him, so I had no idea. He hated the coffee, but appreciated the customer service.

Tortimer: Hey there, sprout! Gimme a cup of coffee to go!I only earned good coffee beans today, which is quite unusual. But that’s what happens when you don’t have notes on the day’s customers. After work, I went outside and had the best conversation imaginable with Katt! That’s right! She’s moving out of town!!!

Katt: I've got a secret! I was gonna keep it quiet, but I feel like I should tell you. I'm moving this summer.At first she was just saying she would move this summer. But then she gave a specific date: July 31st. Awesome!

Katt: Pretty soon, actually. You're stuck with me until the 31st of this month.As for my other least favorite villager, Tabby, she wanted to give me a new nickname: Dumpling. Heck no!!

Tabby: OK, here it is! Dumpling! Snappy, right?I had her call me killer instead. Except the game wouldn’t let me enter “killer,” so I had to use a special character for the “i.”

Tabby: The sun's gone down, but you just keep going, killer!Later on, I went to see K.K. perform at Club LOL. I got a tip from Alyssa on Youtube to request K.K. Island, so I did.

K.K.: K.K. Island's a secret song...It plays the song from the island in the GameCube version of Animal Crossing. Pretty cool! This is what the CD album cover looks like:

Street Lamp

I got my aurora screen in the mail today, and I put it in my upstairs room. It looks really nice, especially when the room lights are off.

My aurora screen on display in my New Leaf house.I also got my gift from Gulliver. He sent me a tuk tuk from Thailand.

The tuk tuk that Gulliver sent me from Thailand, next to my Eiffel tower.When I talked to Big Top, he asked me to dig up his time capsule. I didn’t mess it up this time! I returned it to him, and it contained a taiko drum, which he then gave to me.

Big Top: It's my taiko drum! I never thought we'd see each other again!In the Roost, Tabby compared milk to glitter. She said you don’t want too much of either, but you can’t go completely without them. What is wrong with her?

Tabby: Milk is kinda like glitter--you don't want too much, but you can't go completely without it. Am I right?I caught a dorado in the river, and Molly wanted to trade her tank top for it. I like Molly and all, but I’m no fool.

Molly: So would you consider trading your dorado for my orange tie-dye tank?I then went up to Re-Tail, where I displayed today’s superb coffee beans with an asking price of 7,500 bells. Tex came in, and immediately said that was affordable price and he bought them!

Tex: Are you the owner of the superb coffee beans? What an affordable price!After that, I went to go see my new public works project, the street lamp.

My new street lamp PWP, next to my yellow bench.I also attended the ceremony for the street lamp. But there’s only one person on the left side. And where the other person would be, the edge of the cliff is there.

Everyone fires party poppers at the completion ceremony for the street lamp PWP.Does this mean someone (hopefully Tabby or Katt) is underwater celebrating along with us? I can only hope.

At 10:00, I opened my gate for Friday Night Forest. Wendy, Valeria, and Daisy came over to play. We hung out in my upstairs “heaven” room, using all the items up there to make noises and sound effects and music. We also played my harp for a little while.

My visitors and me playing with my harp.We later went over to my new park. Daisy was digging holes around the bench, so that Wendy and I would fall into them when we got off of the bench. I had to get my revenge by planting a Daisy.

Daisy struggles in a pitfall as Jeff points out he planted a Daisy.We also had way too much fun using emotions tonight. But 3 out of 4 Animal Crossing players think using emotions is a bright idea.

The four of us with light bulbs above our heads. All but Wendy's were lit up.We went out to the island for a while for fish, bugs, and a couple of tours. On the way back, Leilani told me to dance my face off. Shouldn’t that be my butt? Unless she’s saying my face looks like a butt?

Leilani: Yo ho ho! If ye get the urge to dance yer face off, don't ye be fightin' it!Back in Forest, Wendy and I hid in my new room and gave Valeria and Daisy five minutes to find us. Unfortunately, we got disconnected. But I reopened, and everyone came back. Valeria found us before the new extended time limit ran out. We then went crazy with the emotions again, with Valeria collecting my tears. There was also a lot of mischief.

Jeff, Wendy, Valeria, and Daisy using the mischief emotion.We went into Big Top’s house and hung out for a while. I’m afraid Big Top isn’t the most observant elephant…

Big Top asks me if any guests are visiting right now, as his house is filled with visitors walking around and in his bed.We went back outside and had a good, old-fashioned net fight. Benedict told me if I was stressed, I should end the multiplayer session. 😀

Benedict: If you feel stressed, just press START and select End the multiplayer session.But before I did, we went to Club LOL to dance our “faces” off. The atmosphere in there was electrifying.
