Jeff's New Horizons Blog

On Monday, Pascal popped up to provide some profound prose pertaining to ant hills. 🐜

After that pearl of wisdom, he also placed a physical pearl in my pocket.

Afterwards, I found Flick in Forest, fawning over butterflies. Fortunately, I’ve amassed an ample amount…no, an invaluable inventory, of insects. Flick fondly paid a full fortune for my 21 flying friends.

On Wednesday, pounding a rock produced this particularly pleasing pattern.

Yesterday, I found the furry bear Charlise at the campsite for the fourth time! Please flee Forest forever!

After I procured a pirate’s phone parts, Gullivarrr promptly put a package in the post. I got the gift today, a pirate treasure robe. I’m pleased with the present.

Today, the lovely Label longed to see me in an outdoorsy outfit. She doled out a denim jacket, which I donned on the double. I also added a baseball cap and neon shades as accessories. Label loved the look!

She humbly handed me a handcrafted a Labelle knit shirt (a custom creation) today, but she’ll also ship out some tailors tickets tomorrow. Thanks!

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone! I’ll be back blogging again before you know it. Bye! 😉

Last Sunday, I again attended the fireworks festival. This time, Isabelle gave me a bulb bopper. I put it on, sat down, and enjoyed the fireworks for a while. 🙂

Ketchup was so sick on Monday that her skin was as red as a tomato! I gave her some medicine, and she started to feel better right away. She rewarded me with some bunny ears.

On Wednesday, Merengue was asking me about my favorite food. She was asking if it was still pizza, but she phrased it rather awkwardly. 😛

Today, I did something I haven’t done in almost two years: I went to work at Paradise Planning (in the Happy Home Paradise DLC). I saw that Cephalobot was outside, so I asked him about building him a vacation home. Of course, he was interested, and his ideal theme was “My Other Home,” which didn’t tell me much. But his must-have items were all gears and mechanical items.

I picked him out a deserted rocky island in the southwest corner of the map. I gave him a couple of large tanks, a science pod, a flying saucer, and a few tin robots to keep him company. (The game was also recommending space items, so maybe he’s an alien robotic octopus?)

Indoors, I started out with his required items, but I also added a strategic meeting table, a cold sleep pod, an amazing machine, a couple of crew member’s seats, some gears, and an upright speaker. For the floor and walls, I used some circuit-board flooring and a sci-fi wall. I set the gears in motion and took a photo.

He enjoyed the house, and Lottie paid me 20,000 Poki for my work. I immediately headed over to the hospital, where I donated the full 20k towards their expansion. Unfortunately, they still need 49,000 Poki…so the expansion still won’t be done anytime soon. 😛

Here are a few other quick notes from this week:

• I gathered up Wisp’s spirits on Sunday, and he gave me a shopping cart in return.
• On Tuesday, I helped out Gulliver. He sent me another samurai wig.
• Static was sick on Thursday. I gave him some medicine, and he handed me a happi tee.
• The same day, I returned a lost book to Agent S. She rewarded me with a baseball uniform.
• Tonight, K.K. Slider performed K.K. Country for me and Louie.

I’ll see you all next time!

Last Saturday, I found one of my mortal koala enemies (not Yuka, though) at the campsite. It was Eugene, and he was not welcome in my town! This wasn’t even his first time camping here, so I may need to take some extreme measure to dispose of him…or his body. 😛

Bones was celebrating his birthday on Sunday, and I made sure to attend his party. (Well, one of his parties. I didn’t play in Wild World on Sunday.) I gave him some hanging stage lights for his gift, and he seemed to enjoy it.

Our buddy Bob was also at the party, and he was having a great time too!

Sunday was also the day of the first fireworks festival of the year. At the plaza, Isabelle gave me a flower bopper.

Agent S then gave me a sparkler, so I set it off while I enjoyed the fireworks for a few moments.

Thursday, Pascal popped up to ask me for a scallop I caught. He said that stars and planets are floating in space, but he wondered what space is floating in. Good question.

Today, I had another unwanted camper. It was Katt the cat, who was camping here for the third time! Why do these ugly villagers not get the message and keep haunting me? 😛

After I put some money into the bank, my savings account balance reached 95 million bells…with 52 bells to spare. 😛 I’m getting close to 100k!

Here are a few other quick notes about the past week:

• Last Saturday, K.K. Slider performed “Spring Blossoms” for me, Agent S, Static, Ankha, and Merengue.
• On Monday, I sold 29 fish to C.J. for 424,125 bells.
• I helped out Gullivarrr on Wednesday, and he sent me a pirate-ship helm.
• I sold 23 bugs to Flick on Thursday, and he paid me exactly 177,000 bells.

Enjoy your weekend, and I’ll see you next time!
