Jeff's New Leaf Blog

Last Sunday, I put my wet suit on and did some diving in the ocean. That’s not something I do often, but I was doing it to record footage for a video. That video turned out to be “What Goes On Underwater.” While it’s not strictly about New Leaf, the last scene (which is probably the funniest) shows the struggles of diving in ACNL. Check it out if you haven’t seen it yet.

Today, Big Top told me that he’s been using a new shampoo that smells like raisin bread. I’m not a fan of raisins, so I had no interest in smelling his hair. Wait…does he even have hair under that helmet?

Hornsby asked me for a piece of fruit, so I gave him a perfect orange. In return, he gave me a laptop! Wow, I wish I could trade an orange for a laptop in real life!

When I started a conversation with Agent S, she seemed shocked that I actually spoke to her. It’s been a long time, apparently.

She said I’ve walked by her a billion times without saying anything, and that’s obviously not true. I just haven’t been playing New Leaf a whole lot lately.

But she then shifted the blame to herself, saying she could have spoken to me first (which isn’t actually true), and she felt bad that maybe she was being a bad friend. Poor squirrel.

While walking near town hall, I saw Molly from the back…and it occurred to me that the back of her head looks like a Goomba from the Super Mario series. Oops, I better not tell her that.

I updated my dream town (which I hadn’t done in a while), and I headed to Club LOL for the Saturday night musical performance. Dizzy and Peck were in the audience, and K.K. Slider played Aloha K.K. for us.

According to Luna, my recent dream visitors include Jack from Oakwood, Sarah from Fishtown, and Timo from Skyscape. Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!

On Monday, I let Merka come over to drop off the devil Katie in my town.

I actually haven’t seen Katie in a long time, but I’ve never really been a fan. Katie has annoyed me very much in the past, and I’m kind of hoping she permanently missed her flight to the New Horizons island.

Merka and I had a brief net fight.

She asked me about the whirt shirt I was wearing.

I was wearing the black anchor tee from Inkwell’s RV, so I offered to scan a Splatoon Amiibo so she could check it out (and order one for herself, if she wished). I had to kick her out, but I reopened after summoning Inkwell and his RV.

I played New Leaf again tonight, and I was barely able to make it to Chip’s tent in time to see the winners’ ceremony for the fishing tournament. Merka’s former villager Claudia was the winner, with a “stunning” 6.45 inch pond smelt. Vivian got 2nd place, and Aurora finished in third.

The northern lights were shining in the sky, so I took this picture after I came out of Chip’s tent.

While snooping through Lolly’s furniture, I found a classic chair in her dresser. The cute kitty let me have it.

At Club LOL, Kabuki and Dizzy were hanging out to hear K.K. Slider perform. I asked K.K. for a random song, and he played K.K. Ballad.

Rolf informed me that Aurora was thinking about moving out. So I made sure I got her to ping me (even though I had to save and quit to do it), and I got her to change her mind and stick around. The scary part is that she was going to move on the 10th, and today is the 8th. If I hadn’t stopped her, she would have been gone by the next time I played! Yikes.

According to Luna, my recent dream visitors include Jacques from Noatun, Emily from Gooseton, and Corban from Maytron. Lolly also mentioned dreaming of Ivy from Pumpkin. Thank you all for stopping by, and have a great day!

Just before midnight tonight, I barely made it into Club LOL in time to check out K.K. Slider’s Saturday night performance.

He played K.K. Safari for me, Velma, and Julian.

When I came back to town, I heard a balloon present. I shot it down in front of the train station. Unfortunately, I found a balloon chair inside.

I saw on the bulletin board that I actually missed Vivian’s birthday and Aurora’s birthday this week. Oops. I didn’t play at all this week until tonight.

Rolf asked me to make a delivery to Claudia, and I agreed to help out. So I took the item from one tiger to another. It was a reggae tank, and Claudia told me that she had already replaced it before Rolf could return it.

Surprisingly, she didn’t give me the extra one, nor did she offer any reward at all. But then I realized my pockets were full, so that’s probably why. Maybe the developers didn’t want you to be able to force bells as a reward, so they just give you no reward at all when your pockets are full.

Gulliver was down on the beach, talking about explorers. I knew he was headed to Portugal, so he’ll be sending me a souvenir from there soon.

Luna informed that my most recent dream visitor was Leandro from Neudorf. Thanks for stopping by, and have a great night!
