Month: July 2015

Saharah was in my town today (just like she was in ACCF), and I hired her to put in some new carpet and wallpaper. She gave me this music-room floor and backyard fence. I promptly sold both items.

Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Paige from Serenity was my most recent dream visitor.

At 10:00 tonight, I opened my gate for Friday Night Forest.  T Zelda and BranDex came over to visit. TZ was proud that she arrived first. She was also dressed as a baby.

TZ put a Pokemon shirt in Able Sisters, and BranDex really liked it.

In the accessory part of the store, TZ tried on a diving mask that was on sale. But I told her that babies shouldn’t go diving (since she was dressed up as a baby). But in Kicks, she said she could wear some booties. 😛

We headed over to Club LOL for some dancing. Unfortunately, Tabby was also there.

But we tried to have a good time anyway.

After that, we went out to the island for some fishing, bug-catching, and diving. While diving, I was just offshore while TZ got her fishing rod out. She was trying to catch me! 😀

We also went on one dangerous fishing tour, but we didn’t do very well. It’s a hard one, so we only earned two medals for clearing it. At least we got some bonus medals, though.

We returned to Forest, and Merka came over to join the party. TZ asked me where I was, and I said Forest. She then came over and drank her coffee.

TZ left after a while, and I started throwing beans at BranDex and Merka. I threw so many that they had to start cleaning them up with shovels.

Around 11:30, I ended the session for the night. Thanks for coming, everyone! I hope you all have a good weekend!

Yesterday, Copper told me that Phineas was in town! Yes! I quickly searched, and found him by my western bridge. He gave me what I was looking for: The Gold Medalist badge!

He said he couldn’t imagine how much time I spent working on that badge. No kidding!

I spoke to him again to see if I could get another badge, but no such luck. That’s okay, I’ll see him again. I’m going to keep working on these badges. Here’s an updated look at what I currently have:

One of my villagers sent me a pack of paper in the mail, so I decided to use them to write some letters. Unfortunately, the game wouldn’t let me send Cally a gift.

After shaking a perfect peach tree, the tree died. And a spider descended out of the leaves–the leaves that were no longer there.

Kabuki told me he was going to move out of town on July 13th, but I made him change his tune.

Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Hannah from Sonora was my most recent dream visitor. Yesterday’s visitor was Mary from Hogwarts.

Just as a reminder, Friday Night Forest is coming up this Friday. For people already on my roster, I’ll be opening my gate around 10 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. Also, if you haven’t entered the StreetPass item giveaway, you have until Saturday night at 7 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time.

See you next time!

Today, Big Top asked me for furniture shaped like an ice cream bar. That just means a rectangular piece of furniture–one that takes up two spaces, like a sofa or single bed.

I gave him a kiddie couch, and he rewarded me with his picture.

I went out to the island for some tours. The best one today was the bug hide-and-seek tour. It requires catching some “hidden” bugs, including centipedes and pill bugs that hide under rocks, walking sticks that are hard to see on trees, and mole crickets underground. If you take your time to look for the walking sticks on trees, and then hit all the rocks you see, it’s pretty easy to get gold. I don’t bother digging for the mole crickets. But I played this tour three times, earning a gold Tortimer award and 15 medals each time.

I actually spent some medals on the island too. Grams had some kappa-costume pants for sale for 15 medals, and I bought them (for catalog purposes).

Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Noah from Animal was my most recent dream visitor.

***GIVEAWAY INFO***

I’m giving away a total of 10 StreetPass items: Three pinwheels, three balloons, two ice cream cones, a bubble wand, and a tweeter. See the picture below for the full list of each item.

There are three ways to enter:

[Entry details removed now that the contest is over.]

You can enter once per method, for a maximum of three entries. The contest will end on Saturday, July 11, 2015 at 7:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. All valid entries will be entered into a spreadsheet and a random number generator will be used to choose a winner.

The winner will be announced later that night on my July 11th New Leaf blog entry. I will also attempt to contact the winner directly at that time. If the winning entry was from a post on this page, I will contact you via e-mail if you provided an e-mail address. If not, or If I am unable to contact you for any reason, you must contact me and claim the prize (by opening your New Leaf gate for me) by Tuesday, July 14th at 9:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. If you don’t, you will forfeit the prize.

Note: If a winning entry was from a comment left on JVGS, the prize will ONLY be given to the winning friend code chosen (to prevent abuse).

Other notes: I am unable to keep the winner on my friend roster after the prizes have been delivered. If a winner does not claim the prize by July 14th, another winner will be chosen. That replacement winner will also have three days to claim the prize. Good luck, everyone!
