Fully Expanded House

When I started up the game tonight, I found my back room was fully expanded.

My fully expanded back room.And Tom Nook confirmed that my house was also fully expanded. It’s now as big as it can get.

Tom Nook: And, Jeff, by the way--your house is as large as we can make it. We cannot build it any larger.There was a meteor shower in the skies above Forest, so I stopped to wish on a shooting star. And then it crashed into Aurora’s house.

I wish on a shooting star, which appears to crash into Aurora's house.

I had a gem rock instead of a money rock today, and two of the gems were gold nuggets. I took them (and another gold nugget I had in storage) to Cyrus, and he made me a golden carpet. That’s actually an item I needed.

Take home the golden carpet?The Able Sisters had a skeleton hood for sale today, so I bought it.

Labelle: Oh wow! So flashy and so wonderful!Remember that customized mini dharma that I gave to Rolf? Guess what I saw for sale in Re-Tail tonight!

Reese: Oh, the mini dharma? This item belongs to Rolf from here in Forest.Rolf has some ‘splaining to do! I don’t care if he is an endangered species. He’s gonna be more endangered if I don’t get a good explanation and a serious apology!

Fortunately, I also have some nice villagers. Molly is one of them, and when she asked me for a butterfly, I went out of my way to catch one for her. I gave her an emperor butterfly and she gave me modern wood flooring.

Molly: It's some modern wood flooring.I actually needed that flooring for my modern wood room, so I’m very glad to have it.

Big Top had a petition for me to take to another village. The cause was “Don’t hate, hydrate.” I was unable to visit another town at the time (but special thanks to Roman for trying to help me out). Much later, my friend Wendy opened her gate for me. So I went around asking her villagers for signatures. My former villager Rory was the 6th and final signature I needed.

Rory: Sweet chuckling chin-ups! My name completed your form, right?I looked over the completed petition…

Don't Hate! Hyrate petition signatures: Molly, Mitzi, Mira, Colton, Angus, Rory.And I returned to Forest to give it to him. Unfortunately, he was now sleeping! It looks like I did this all for nothing!

Sign on door: I'm sleeping... Please don't wake me up, OK? -Big TopHave a great weekend, everyone!

Big Top’s Birthday

Today, I paid off my latest house expansion and I went with the only option left, to expand my back room. It will be done tomorrow.

Tom Nook: The work will be fully completed by tomorrow morning. I'm so sure you must be very excited, yes, yes!I  finished up customizing my modern wood furniture with the diamond wood pattern. I don’t have the entire set yet, but everything that I do have has been customized.

My modern wood furniture customized with the diamond pattern.There was a tent over at the campsite, so I went inside to see who was visiting. Turns out it was Soleil the hamster.

Soleil: You're from Forest, right?When I went up to the Dream Suite to update my dream town, I saw that my most recent dream visitor was T. Zelda from Hyrule!

Luna: According to the latest feedback, a client named T Zelda from Hyrule enjoyed your dream.Over by Re-Tail, Tabby was talking about fairy tales. I wasn’t really paying much attention, and then an option came up where I could choose a poison apple. I hoped I was going to give her one.

Tabby: Hmm... A poison apple? Are you sure about that? Well, I bet you're right, master...And she acted as if she was grossed out by the notion of being awakened by a kiss from a prince. Tabby, that’s not something you ever have to worry about.

Tabby: Then she got to take a long nap, but some random prince woke her up with a kiss? EW!And over at town hall, Rolf was talking about how I rarely spend time at town hall. Hey now, I never asked to be mayor in the first place!

Rolf: But it's pretty rare to see you in the town hall at all!Aurora approached me and gave me a pawn for some reason.

Aurora: Um, J-bot. I hope this isn't presumtuous, but I think you could use a pawn.Time to Party

Today was Big Top’s birthday, so I stopped by his house to wish him a good one.

Big Top: Hurray! You came, killer!Benedict was also there to celebrate Big Top’s birthday. He said he was going to show Big Top the best time he’s ever had. I don’t want to know what that means.

Benedict, at Big Top's birthday party: Today you and I are gonna show Big Top the best time he's ever had, buhk buhk!When I talked to Big Top, he asked if I brought him a present. Of course I did! I had a wonderful pawn to give him!

Big Top: A pawn? I never would have guessed this would be my present!
But will it be the only piece I give you? I’ll have to check, mate.

Customizing Furniture

Today, I got a letter from the Happy Homes Academy. They congratulated me on reaching an HHA score of 50,000 points. They also sent me this silver HHA plaque.

The silver HHA plaque from the Happy Homes Academy.My friend Wendy came over to visit, wearing a monster mask. I wore my bug mask from yesterday.

Wendy dressed as a monster and Jeff dressed as a bug.In the Able Sisters, I bought this ghost mask and put it on.

Trying on a ghost mask in Able Sisters.Wearing the ghost mask, I stepped behind my tombstone picture on my face-cutout standee.

Poking my face through my gravestone face-cutout standee while wearing a ghost mask.Wendy helped me spot some blue violets in my town, so I could finish surrounding my fountain with them. I’ve added a new picture of my fountain to my town page.

Later on, Big Top invited himself to my house. He suggested that I use my sleek bed as a trampoline.

Big Top: I hope you're practicing flips. It would be a waste to use a bed that big just for sleeping, peanut.When I went to work at the cafe, Brewster told me that he didn’t need help.

Brewster: Sorry... I don't really need any help right this moment...Yesterday, he didn’t need help either, but I thought that was because Jack was visiting town. But if he didn’t need help today either, then why? Am I not going to be able to work the whole month of October?

My daily fake rock gave me an emerald. I wanted to customize some furniture with it, so I took my modern wood sofa in to Cyrus at Re-Tail. I found out that the modern wood furniture can’t be modified with the emerald, but I still had it modified to display a diamond wood pattern. I’m happy with the way it turned out, and I plan on modifying all of my modern wood set the same way.

Take home the modern wood sofa?Back outside, Aurora was talking about her shirt design called “shirt.”

Aurora: This particular design is called shirt. Isn't it nice, waddle?I saw Canberra over by the bridge, and she asked if I could call her master.

Canberra: Can I call you master too?Phineas made an appearance, and I talked to him to see what new badge he had for me. He gave me the Happy Homer Bronze badge for scoring 50,000 HHA points.

I got the Happy Homer Bronze badge! I've taken one big step toward a fashionable lifestyle!I then checked out the latest Nintendo Zone DLC, a fedora chair. It can not be ordered from the catalog.

Fedora chair DLC: Not for sale.When I was going back to Re-Tail to have more modern furniture customized, I noticed that the mini-dharma in my pockets could also be modified. Out of curiosity, I decided to give it a try. You can only change the color to white or blue, and I went with blue.

The mini dharma customized in blue.It does look better in blue, but I ended up giving it to Rolf anyway (when he asked for furniture). That’s all I have for today, but I’ll be back with more tomorrow. I hope to see you then! 🙂
