I got a letter from the snowtyke in the mail today, and he sent me a small igloo. (This item was called an igloo model on GameCube). I now have all four of the snowtyke items, which are shown in this picture. You can see a little campfire inside of the igloo, which is a nice touch. And yet the outside of the igloo isn’t very detailed at all, unfortunately.
For the first time since October, a new animal is moving in! Since Tabby isn’t gone yet, I’ll be back up to ten villagers. But the new villager will be Tia the elephant, whose head looks like a tea pot. Interestingly, she’s moving in near Big Top’s house. Is there going to be some steamy elephant romance brewing? Or will Big Top just get himself into hot water? We’ll see!
At Re-Tail, Reese informed me that the gallant statue I got from Crazy Redd was a fake.
I built a new bingo snowman today, and he rolled a 32. I marked it off my bingo card, and I’m now one number away from a bingo. I tried to let Tom in my town to get #32 for himself, but after it didn’t work, he had to go before I could try making any changes to my router settings. I usually have to try a few different settings before it will let him in, and it’s not the same settings each time.
Anyway, while I was in the train station, I tried to take a picture that made it look like I only had one leg. And that’s why you don’t lay on the tracks.
At the Dream Suite, Luna informed me that Jennifer from Winnifer was my most recent dream visitor. Interesting town name, Jennifer…
Big Top asked me for some furniture, but I didn’t have any customized furniture to give him today. So I just bought a wet-road sign from the Emporium and gave him that. Surprisingly, he seemed to enjoy it. But not enough to give me his picture, of course.
That basically wrapped up my day in Forest. I’ll be back with another update tomorrow, so I hope to see you then!
After waking up from the dream, Big Top asked me to collect signatures for his petition, No More Crinkly Wrappers.
I noticed the northern lights up in the sky once again.
Crazy Redd was in town, so I took a chance on this gallant statue.
At the Dream Suite, Luna told me Tree from the town of Konoha was my most recent dream visitor.
He had the northern lights in his town too!
I started collecting signatures, but I also stopped in his classic police station to say hello to Booker.
After Velma scribbled her name down, the petition was complete!
The other five villagers who signed were Pinky, Curlos, Derwin, Axel, and Klaus.
But while I was in the town of Franklin, one of the villagers gave Darian a petition too! So I let him come over and get signatures in my town, too. But before I opened my gate, I returned Big Top’s petition. Would this be the day I finally get Big Top’s picture? False. He gave me an alpine lamp instead. 🙁
I then opened the gate and Darian started collecting the signatures he needed from my villagers. Aurora seemed to be hiding behind her harvest lamp.
But before long, he got all the signatures he needed and I ended the party.
I asked K.K. for a random song, and he performed Steep Hill for me. Then today, I searched and searched for Joan. Once I eventually found her, I bought 1,000 turnips from her at 110 bells apiece.
With that out of the way, I returned home to put my turnips in storage and check my mail. I received a letter from Gulliver in Peru, and he sent me this tapestry, which I put in my World Wonders exhibit at the museum.
Tom and I briefly visited each other’s towns to get our bingo cards stamped. After that, I was just about to water my flowers for the day, when it started snowing! Perfect timing! So I decided to build my daily snowperson. I needed to make a flawed snowmam, so I made her nice and ugly.
If all goes well, this will be the last snowperson I’ll be making flawed (at least on purpose). And the snowtyke I build tomorrow will hopefully be the last snowtyke I’ll need to make, since he should be giving me the last of his items.
Awesome! I quickly put it in my house.
It has his favorite quote on the back: “Be yourself–everyone else is already taken.”
The interesting thing is that Kidd moved into Forest on September 9th…four full months after Big Top. And now I have Kidd’s pic, while Big Top continues to hold out on me. I do like Kidd, though. He may not be a very popular villager, but he’s grown on me a lot and I think I want to keep him in town for a long time.
