Last Monday, I found Pascal standing near the mouth of the river. He told me not to count my clams before they’re shucked, and then he gave me a sea view wallpaper and jumped into the water.

On Tuesday, I noticed that Rosie only had four pieces of pink furniture left! Is she clearing it all out after I went to all that effort to help her? Ugh. What’s more, she told me she’s looking for fossils now. She even called me a “jerkhead” because she assumed I wouldn’t think fossils are cute. That’s really rude, Rosie.
![Rosie: FINE THEN, JERKHEAD! I don't CARE what you think! I KNOW they're adorable!](https://www.jvgs.net/acwwblog/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/rosie-jerkhead.jpg)
But Rosie wasn’t the only one who changed their furniture requests. Benedict, who previously wanted fossils, started asking me for red furniture. I started off by giving him a maple bonsai.
Saharah was in town on Thursday. I helped her out by delivering a carpet to Tom Nook. I then continued making my rounds, planning to talk to Saharah when I ran into her again. However, I didn’t run into her again, and I ultimately forgot about making the other delivery! I didn’t even realize until just now as I’m writing this entry! Oops! Sorry, Saharah!
Yesterday (Saturday) was a special 5x bonus point day at Nookington’s. I bought out the store (as I’ve been doing every day), and then I was just 420 points short!
![Points required to reach platinum status: 420.](https://www.jvgs.net/acwwblog/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/420.jpg)
I looked through my catalog to find something expensive to buy, and I saw that the black katana cost a whopping 10,800 bells! I ordered it, and that kicked my point balance up to 20,120 points…enough for platinum status! Woohoo!
![Congratulations. You have achieved the highest member status, Jeff.](https://www.jvgs.net/acwwblog/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/highest.jpg)
At town hall, I found a plesio skull in the recycle bin. That’s about the easiest 4,000 bells I ever earned!
Today (Sunday), I got a letter officially announcing my platinum membership. I’ll now earn a 20% discount at the store. And more importantly, I won’t need to keep buying everything I see any more.
![Dear Jeff, Congratulations! You've earned 20,000 points. You're now an honorary Platinum Member! All items 20% off! -TNPS](https://www.jvgs.net/acwwblog/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/platinum-letter.jpg)
A Nookington’s model was attached to the letter, so I put it in my house. I was surprised to see how big it is: It takes up two spaces!

It’s even bigger than the Nookington’s model in City Folk!
I’ve continued to give Benedict red furniture, including a watermelon table and a gas pump.
Mathilda was packed up to move out of town, but I decided to stop her. Even though I still don’t particularly like or dislike her, I know she hasn’t lived in town long enough to give her a fair chance. Unfortunately, it took me nearly five minutes of attempts before I got her to change her mind.
I recently posted another video episode, which shows much of Yay Day and other recent highlights.
