Arapaima Time

After making a quick stop at Nookington’s (and BARELY making it in the door before the clock struck 10:00), I went back home and played one game of Clu Clu Land D. It’s one of ACC’s games of the week for their high score contest, and I’ve been trying to participate for most of the games so far. I just played one game to get things started and got a score of 28,470 points.

I caught an arapaima! This thing is huge!I went to the post office to deposit some bells, and I asked Copper for any upcoming events. There are none. I checked the wishing well (still perfect town status) and then I headed for home.

Cookie Camper

I started up the game and checked my mail. A letter from Nibbles was there, saying goodbye.

Nibbles' goodbye letter.I went to meet my new neighbor Pompom. She apparently is a Nintendo sales duck, as she was shamelessly promoting Nintendo products.

Pompom: Oh, I wish I had a Game Boy Advance and a Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Advance cable.I then went home to play some Donkey Kong 3 for ACC’s high score contest. At first I didn’t know what I was doing. It’s not your typical DK game; it’s more of a shooter than a platformer. I ended up with a high score of 116,200.

Cookie: Hello there! How's the evening looking outside?I played her games for a while. Tip: For the games where the animals tell a story and you have to choose “bear, wolf, or you,” you should always choose “you.” Even if it’s not the right answer, they’ll be flattered and will give you the item for a cheap price. I ended up getting a bonfire and a cooler. And of course we exchanged other items back and forth for a while.

Cookie: Enjoy your new bug zapper!Cookie: I guess I'll take your bug zapper.

Sunny Sunday

Sorry if this entry is brief. My computer crashed and I lost the more detailed version I had written, and this is just what I can remember of it.

It was a sunny day in Forest. I went to Nookington’s and sold a bunch of items that were clogging up my inventory. I also went around town, talking to animals, pulling some weeds, catching some bugs, and digging up a bunch of gyroids. I found the daily glowing spot and dug up 10,000 bells. I also found the red rock.

I walked by Nibbles’ house and Genji was there with her, steaming mad. I don’t know what she did to make him so angry, but she doesn’t seem to be making friends so far.

I found a cabana table in the dump. I put it in my house so that I can use my journal/calendar. If they’re sitting on the floor, you can’t even use them! So now I can check for upcoming events.
