I played some City Folk late on Sunday night, after the fireworks festival had already ended. But even though the show was over, the fireworks were still on everyone’s minds.
They all had glowing reviews of the fireworks. Tom even said that he had nine summers worth of fun in one night! Is this a reference to cats having nine lives? 🐱
Of course, my main reason for playing at that hour was to get some extra bug-catching in. It was going well too. At one point, I caught four rare bugs (worth a total of 32,000 bells) in a 36-second span! I even made my first Youtube Shorts video to show it off:
In total, I earned over 200,000 bells in just a 55-minute session! And in the process, my bank account balance topped 52 million bells. I still need another million to go by September 1st to meet my goal, but I can DO IT! 😉
Yesterday (Monday), I received Marcel’s goodbye letter in the mail.
I also got a letter from Boomer, who is over his cold now. He sent me a hearth to thank me.
My Monday bug-hunting didn’t go as well as Sunday’s. Even though my session was a bit longer, I only earned about 165k. That’s not bad, but it shows how lucky I was on Sunday.
Today, Marcel’s replacement moved in: Vladimir the cranky bear cub.
I’ll always remember him as being my frenemy in the early days of my GameCube town. He lived near the ocean, in the spot where Ursala lives now (where one rude pink bear replaced another). 😛
In a 45-minute session tonight, I earned another 150,000+ bells. And with these past three days, I think I’m back on track towards meeting my goal. 👍🏼
See you next week!
