New Year’s Day 2015

Pete met me outside my house today to deliver a letter from Nintendo.

Pete: I have an express delivery for you from Nintendo.It included an item called a hagoita; I’ll show a picture of it in a moment. But first, I headed to the event plaza. Isabelle was there, and I noticed that the northern lights were shining overhead as well.

Northern lights on New Year's Day.Isabelle wished me a happy new year and gave me a zodiac goat to celebrate the year of the sheep.

Isabelle: This year, it felt like the right time to honor sheep, what with them being so fluffy and cute, like me!There was also a face-cutout standee for New Year’s Day. I stuck my head through it,  and it looked like I was trying to warm my hands in the blast of a giant firecracker. Probably not the best idea.

The zodiac goat and hagoita.Outside, each villager would wish me a happy new year. Although Agent S tried to be clever by wishing me a sad old day instead.

Agent S: Sad Old Day! Get it? It's like, the opposite of Happy New Year! Hahahahahaha!Drago told me he almost missed 2015 altogether. I think he’s a bit confused.

Drago: ..Huh?! It's the new year already? Then happy New Year! I was this close to missing 2015 completely.After rolling a snowman’s eyes, I got a #40. That gave me a triple ding, meaning I’m one number away from a bingo in three different ways. The snowman says a triple ding is actually more rare than a bingo itself, but I don’t believe him. I remember triple dings being pretty common from all my bingo adventures last winter.

Snowman: TRIPLE DING!Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Alfredo from Smithson was my most recent dream visitor. And in the Happy Homes Showcase, Ian from Xereo gave me a tweeter.

Me blowing a tweeter.Happy New Year, everyone! I hope 2015 is your best year yet! 🙂
