Dizzy approached me today, asking me to play a game of hide-and-seek. Sure, why not?
He gave me 15 minutes to find him, Velma, and Agent S. Fifteen minutes is plenty of time, so I felt no need to rush. But still, it didn’t take me long to find Velma hiding behind a tree and Agent S hiding behind Rolf’s house.
I tracked down Dizzy a couple minutes later, and he had the worst hiding spot of all: He was trying to hide behind the arm of the Sphinx. If someone told him that was a good hiding spot, they were clearly lion.
Even though Dizzy lost the game, he said it was the most fun he’s had in ages. That’s saying a lot, because elephants never forget! 😉 He gave me a hearth as my prize for winning.
Even though I built a perfect snowmam yesterday, I tried making another one today since I found both snowballs pretty close to each other. However, the snowballs wouldn’t connect to form a snowmam–even though they seemed like they were the right size! Oh well. So I just made them a little bigger and ended up with a snowboy.
When I made my daily trip up to Main Street, Luna told me that Cab from Renwerd was my most recent dream visitor. (Ben from Leafwood was my previous dream visitor). At the post office, the money I deposited into my bank account kicked my balance up over 58 million bells.
I finished off my night with some fishing and diving. I caught a scallop and Pascal popped up out of the water. He figured that if people can get seasick, maybe the sea can get person sick. 😀
I definitely wouldn’t want to swim in that ocean.
Back in Forest, the countdown to the new year was on. Isabelle gave me a glass of sparkling cider. Even though I didn’t watch the countdown in New Leaf, I left my game in sleep mode and returned to it shortly after midnight. Rolf, Pashmina, Aurora, and Crazy Redd joined Isabelle and me in the event plaza.
I gulped down my cider as Isabelle looked on. Happy new year!
Tonight, the northern lights were in the sky above as I started up the game.
Isabelle was at the event plaza again, but this time she was telling me to swing through some trees like monkeys!
I’m sure Porter wouldn’t like to hear that! Why not suggest that I run my own train like a monkey? Hmmm? Anyway, 2016 is the year of the monkey, so she gave me a zodiac monkey. I put it in my house by my new 2016 sign.
There was a fireworks face-cutout standee at the event plaza, so I stuck my face through it. I had a blast.
I chatted with Velma over by town hall, and she told me that her new year resolution is to get really good at eating spicy food. Practice makes perfect!
Up on Main Street, Luna told me that Serenie from Cutiepie was my most recent dream visitor. Kevin from Leafside was yesterday’s visitor. When I went into the Happy Homes Showcase, I checked out the home of someone I StreetPassed, Miles from Animalia. There, I found a wet-roadway sign that had been customized to display a kangaroo! Nice sign, mate.
I hope you’re all having a great New Year’s Day, and I hope 2016 is a great year for you all! 🙂
Tonight, Daisy told me she was so frustrated that she considered sticking her head in the snow to cool off! I wonder what made her so frustrated. Maybe she was playing some ranked battles of 
It seemed like everyone was talking about the weather. Peck warned me not to freeze my toes. Uh, or anything else.
I made a visit to Brooke’s town Novation to drop off a few villager pictures. She seemed to enjoy them. 🙂
I have more villager pics that I’m giving away (up to 3 pictures per person, but they can’t be the same villager). If you’re interested, contact me on Tumblr, Twitter, Pinterest, Youtube, or Facebook. I’m jvgsjeff on all of those places. Here is an updated picture of what’s available:
He offered to give me his vegetarian shirt for it. A fossil for a shirt is a very unfair trade, but I accepted anyway. I’m too nice to my villagers. But an election year is coming up, so it can’t hurt. 😉 Re-elect Mayor Jeff 2016!
I finished my night with some nice peaceful ocean diving. One of my catches was a scallop, and Pascal popped up to ask me for it. I handed it over and he gave me an anchor in exchange. He then left me with some words of wisdom.
In an attempt to appear wise, I didn’t respond.
