On Tuesday, I received Julian’s goodbye letter in the mail. He also enclosed his picture. So long, Julian! See you soon.
I found my former villager Velma has started appearing on Main Street. I said hello to her as she went shopping.
Last night, I saw that Harvey had this outdoor sign for sale. It looks like it’s made for a coffee shop.
I bought it, but I quickly found out that the outdoor sign can not be used outdoors. What’s the point of calling it that then?
Still, I took it up to Re-Tail to see what customization options were available. The only one was to turn it into a blue signboard. But when I picked it up later, it wasn’t just the color that had changed. Instead of a coffee cup, it now shows a cat reading a book? Good choice for a library, a bookstore…or a school for cats, I suppose.
I found Kevin Bacon at the campsite, but I wasn’t in the mood for pork.
When I checked out the drive-in campground, I found Jack there for the first time. At first, he said “trick or treat,” but he quickly corrected himself.
Since he’s so good at scaring people, I decided to turn the tables and scare him! HONK!
Today, Hamlet asked me to bury a time capsule for him. I buried it in the top-left (northwest) corner of town, as usual.
I went up to the Happy Homes Showcase for the first time since the update, and Digby had something to tell me. He said that the exhibition space can only be accessed by people playing the new version (Welcome Amiibo).
However, all of the houses on display from before the update were still there. But maybe new ones won’t appear unless they’ve updated their game? This seems like it will make it even harder to get those StreetPass badges, since many people haven’t updated their game. Ugh.
Anyway, my recent dream visitors have been Nisno from Partom C, Paige from Congo, and Ruben from Fun Town. Hamlet also mentioned Serenity from Pink Sky. Thank you all for stopping by!
I was planning on giving Julian to Merka, but she seemed to disappear and I was unable to get ahold of her. So I offered Julian to Beth, and she gladly agreed to adopt him. She came over and had a chat with him. Whatever she said to him, it was enough to shock him into opening his eyes.
Julian then confirmed that he’ll be moving to Acorn. Good luck in your new town! I’ll have to stop by and visit sometime.
Later, I made my way around to the drive-in campground. Harvey had something different for sale today, an exercise ball.
I took it back to my house to see what I could do with it. Unfortunately, I couldn’t sit or jump on it. But I could bounce it!
I also took it to Re-Tail to see if it could be customized, but the only options were to make the ball blue or white. So I left it alone for now.
The other day, my bank account balance reached 85 million bells.
Yesterday was the harvest festival (aka Thanksgiving), but I played too late at night to participate (although I did participate in the 
Tonight, I found Pashmina sitting on the metal bench.
She goaded me into joining her, so I took a seat. I only stayed for a couple of seconds, though. A mayor has things to do, if you haven’t herd. And I’m too stubborn to alter my plans for long.
I saw a tent at the campsite, so I went inside to see who was camping. Big mistake. Ankha was there, and I couldn’t invite her in because my town is still full! ARRRGGGHHH!
This was the 2nd time she’s camped here when my town was full (the previous time was in 
I redecorated my main room tonight, and I’m finally using a furniture set I’ve mentioned liking for years. It’s exotic furniture, customized in black and red. Once I set the pieces out, I used the new Happy Home Designer style controls to move everything around.
This is the end result. I kept my magic lamp out, for easy Amiibo scanning, and I also put my New 3DS and Wii U console where they’re easily accessible.
I moved the fruit-panel themed items over to my room on the left, replacing my sleek furniture. A lot of random update-related items are in here, along with some zodiac animals and a few other things. I may not keep it like this for long (or then again, I might), but I wanted this jumble of items out of my main room for now at least.
