I don’t normally post my HRA (Happy Room Academy) scores in the blog, but here: Have a look. I like how it insults me for leaving items on my floor! 😆
I also received a goodbye letter from Sue E. I’m glad to see she has headed off to the chopping block, squealing “Wii, Wii, Wii” all the way home.
All lies.
Genji noticed I had a saw stag beetle in my pockets, and he offered me 2,390 bells for it. It’s a deal!
I found a new house near Static’s home; Sue E’s replacement is Tiara, a snooty rhino. I don’t particularly like her, but I guess she’s slightly better than Sue E.
We have met before, Tiara. You lived in Forest before, back in 2012.
Hank asked me to join his swimming team, but of course, we don’t actually swim. We just argue about who’s better at swimming. 😛 🏊
“You’re better!” “No, you are!” “I can’t even swim!” “Neither can I!”
Over by the wishing well, Freckles offered me some lovely wallpaper for 1,890 bells. I didn’t want it, so I declined the offer. And this being GameCube, Freckles called me nuts, told me to mellow out, and said it’s impossible to find wallpaper for less than that price. 🙄
Puck asked to take a pop quiz about him. He asked me if I thought his favorite night event was a meteor shower or New Year’s Eve. I guessed it was a meteor shower, and I was correct. He rewarded me with a pitfall; it’s always good to have one of these on-hand. 🙂
Purrl has already moved out of town, as I discovered when I checked my mail.
Genji was talking about giant stag beetles tonight, and in particular, about how big they are.
Yeah, I figured that much from the “giant” in its name.
He said he thought he saw one once, but it was just Resetti. 😛
I got to meet Purrl’s replacement…and I immediately wished I had Purrl back. It was Sue E the pig.
She has lived in Forest before (years ago, before I started this blog), and I wasn’t a fan of hers back then either. The only good news is that she probably won’t stick around long.
While I was banging the money rock, a mosquito bit me. So I didn’t get the full amount from the rock. Mosquitos can be so annoying!
Over by the wishing well, Ursala said she found a modern table. She asked if it was mine, and I said yes. So she said she was going to take a reward from me for finding it! So she took half my money! 😡
The worst part is that I was carrying almost 40k, which is a lot in this game. So she walked away with over 19,000 bells of mine! I was so mad!
I wasn’t happy about being mugged by this evil thug of a bear cub, so I hit her with my net a few times.
In stark contrast to Ursala’s attitude, Hank was impressed by my flat stag beetle…and he politely asked me to trade it for a cherry. I accepted the offer, and he said you can’t even catch “these li’l guys” in Forest, so he advised me not to eat it. I’m not sure if he was talking about the beetle or the cherry. 🤔
I posted a new video this weekend, ranking my villagers in every Animal Crossing town I have. Check it out if you’d like!
Today, I received Pompom’s goodbye letter in the mail. She has waddled away after two months in town.
Don’t forget you? Wait, who were you? jk
The fishing tournament was underway, and Hank said he may need me to help carry the fish he was going to catch. 😆
Purrl, on the other hand, wasn’t as pleasant. Snooties are very hard to like in this game. Even Purrl.
Puck and Belle were fishing together at the northeast part of the lake. Puck thought it was a good spot to catch fish.
Chip told me that Hank was the current leader, with a 19-inch fish. Of my first few fish (all regular bass), the biggest was 18 inches. I continued to fish as I made my rounds.
I found a mistake when I spoke with Maple: She said she accidentally bought two “peach” (instead of peaches).
But she gave me one for free; that was nice of her. 🙂
It was raining in town, and many of my villagers were complaining about it. Baabara said there’s not much to do in the rain (even though a tourney was underway?), and she’s going to go to the bakery if it’s still raining tomorrow. Yeah, good luck with that.
I was surprised to see Tortimer out and about; I forgot he pops out of his shell during tournaments. But he wasn’t even near the wishing well this time, he was several acres away. He told me if I was tired, he would catch a lunker for me! Yeah, right. He couldn’t catch a fish if it was in a fishbowl in front of him.
I noticed there were only six minutes until the tourney ended, so I decided I better get serious about fishing! When I caught a large bass at 5:56, I felt pretty good about my chances. Even my 18-incher was a regular bass, and that was only an inch shorter than Hank’s. So I rushed it over to Chip. But he told me it was also 19 inches, so Hank was still the leader! Uh-oh!
With just two minutes to go, I was unable to catch another large bass in time. 🙁 So I officially lost the tournament. But it was nice just to participate. In fact, this was my first time competing in the GameCube fishing tournament since 2012! 😲
On the bright side, I got to meet my new villager, Freckles. I like her, she’s cute.
So one duck replaced another. 😛 Freckles also lives in my town of Ohio, and she previously lived in Forest back in 2011.
When I got back around to my house, I checked the bulletin board. To my surprise, Puck was the winner with a 26-inch fish! So he must have passed Hank in the final two minutes! I guess that makes it easier to take the loss then, since I wasn’t tied with the winner.
I guess he really did have a good fishing spot, after all.
Of course, I would have been even more upset if I had taken the lead with a 20-incher and then lost in the final two minutes. Oh well. Maybe next time…whenever that will be. 😆
Thanks for stopping by, and Never Stop Crossing! 🙂
