Yesterday, I finally got to meet Marcel. He’s the newest neighbor of mime mine.

Stitches was talking about the possibility of eating a spider, and he was a bit too excited to give it a try.

But it turns out that he was just impersonating Nat, the Bug-Off host…who eats bugs. Allegedly.

Tonight, K.K. Slider was in town. I enjoyed his lively performance of K.K. Metal.

Marcel was at home tonight, so I got to see the inside of his house for the first time. It looks very Japanese, and he has a whopping four lucky cats!

In the city, the pathway to the Reset Center was open. I went inside, and Resetti seemed to be hinting at a future when he didn’t have to get angry about everyone resetting.

This is indeed how things have played out in subsequent games. New Leaf, by default, doesn’t have Resetti in his usual role…at least until you choose to build the Reset Center. And he has a different role in New Horizons altogether.

Now that April is here, some of the trees have pink leaves for cherry blossom season.

I was disappointed to find a new house that landed on my path in the western part of town. I was even more disappointed to see that it was Marcel who moved in.

I was playing unusually late, so I didn’t get to meet him yet. I also missed out on K.K. Slider and the ability to shop because of the late hour. Everyone else other than Marcel was still awake, though.

Gwen was suffering with a cold (and the chills), and I could completely relate because that’s how I’ve been feeling today as well. I gave her some medicine. Get well soon!

Maelle asked me to make a delivery to Stitches, and I agreed to help out. The gift was a circus shirt, which doesn’t sound very flattering. But actually, it’s orange and it matched Stitches quite well.

Maelle thanked me by giving me a stone tile.

See you all next time!

On Thursday night, Goldie insulted me. She said that the best thing about coming to live in Forest was that she got to meet Curt! CURT!

I found Pudge all packed up to move out of town. Pudge is a nice guy, but honestly, he didn’t grow on me very much in his short stay in Forest.

He was still in town yesterday, but he was gone by today. I received his goodbye letter in the mail. Take care, Pudge!

Curt approached me, wanting to play a wilderness-survival game. He really meant hide-and-seek, and I agreed to play. Curt was just so sure that he was going to win.

He gave me 15 minutes to find him, Goldie, and Stitches. With that much time, I wasn’t in a rush and I still went on with my normal duties. After about five minutes, I found Goldie hiding behind my house. A minute after that, I found Curt hiding behind a tree near the fountain. And with just three and a half minutes remaining, I found Stitches behind Scott’s house.

Curt rewarded me with a dirt-clod wall for winning the game. Such a fancy prize.

After that, I headed over to the Roost for the Saturday night concert. K.K. Slider performed Neapolitan for me.

While I was looking at my letters, I was surprised to see a blue (unsent) letter. My curiosity turned to sadness when I realized it was a letter I wrote to Lucky…who has since moved out. I was sending him a mummy shirt.

I remembered being a bit disappointed that he never put the shirt on or wrote me back…and now I know why. Oops. As you can tell, I don’t always pay a lot of attention to my mail slots. I usually check the new mail and just ignore the others. Sorry, Lucky!
