Fortunately Neko had a reasonable surge in her stock prices on Thursday evening so I sold my shares for 153 bells apiece. Not a huge profit, but still a profit. Better luck next week.
Day 114
The big news is it’s pretty much officially spring—in New Leaf anyway. The calendar has tumbled over into March and there are butterflies flitting about and new fish to catch.

Villager News
Lillian is in love with the round radar. It doesn’t seem quite her style, but who am I to tell her she can’t have whatever she wants.
Hakase has the plague (or maybe he has what I have 🙁 ). I brought him medicine. If only my townies brought me some…
Holiday Coming Up
March 3 is the Doll Festival: ひな祭り. To celebrate Nook’s has the doll set for sale as a seasonal item between March 1-3. He also sells a paper-covered lamp (look close at the doll set, they’re on the top shelf). I bought the lamp too, but forgot to snap a picture of it.
seasonal doll set
If you look closely at the top two dolls on the set you may notice their distinctive hairstyles. Those two dolls are the Emperor and Empress. Labelle sells each of their wigs as seasonal items from March 1-3. I’ve only had the Emperor’s wig so far.

Saharah’s Design (flaws)
Saharah was roaming today. I still haven’t put my furniture back in since her last visit, so I switched wallaper and threw done some random items to influence her design choice.
before Saharah’s redesign: museum wallpaper and floor and random stuff
Saharah used the Illusion Wall (not original) and the Concrete Floor—ugly, but one of her creations
Ryuuji changed nothing and got nothing original
Taiga changed nothing, but at least got the original game board rug.
Miscellany
Taiga finally got the Toad Hat! Also, the dress is a QR Code from the Dengeki strategy guide.
Our New Illumination arch. The lights turn on at 6pm.
Day 115
~3/3 is the doll festival ~
Tomorrow is the doll festival. It’s also called the peach festival (I think?)
Did you decorate your doll set perfectly?
The bulletin board is advertising tomorrow’s festival. I don’t think there’s too much to it, but I know Shizu-chan will be there in a kimono and there will be cardboard cutouts. Now I just have to get Kokuto to come over for picture taking. 😉
The lamp to the right is the seasonal lamp.
Gracie Grace!
I did not expect to see him standing in my town square. And me looking…frightful.
Even though I look like a train wreck I talked to Gracie to find out what my challenge was.
He wanted me to throw together a gorgeous outfit. There aren’t too many gorgeous items. A lot of them—including the only gorgeous pair of shoes—are Gracie items. I did pretty well. Even though Kokuto laughed at my outfit and called me a dwarven princess because of my beard…The king’s beard is the only gorgeous accessory I could find. I don’t even know if accessories count, but better safe than sorry. I had a choice of 3 gorgeous tights: the fishnets, rainbow or wine-red tights. I picked the latter because the color is considered “red” and while I’m not sure if Gracie cares whether my colors match, once again I err on the side of caution.
Ta da! Gorgeous Dwarven Princess/King Yumi
The only thing that wasn’t gorgeous in my outfit were the shoes. They were “fancy”. It was the best I could do.
If I say fancy and gorgeous…I would imagine the world of a fairy tale dance party!
Sooooo maybe my fancy shoes weren’t horrible. I sighed in relief when he said I passed. And then—he gave me a princess bed. Eeee! my favorite set. I hope he comes back one more time soon and then opens up shop so I can buy the princess set.
Princess Bed!

You had to see Lillian looking absolutely adorable in a new shirt Taiga sent her. ♥

Kaizo’s (neglected) Corner
In case you wanted to see the Campus Closet turned yellow:

LOL whoops I thought it was Girl’s Day? But it’s actually Doll Festival? My bad. 😛
Congrats on the Princess Bed! I have yet to see Gracie in Wasabi…
You can do re-makes on alot of the furniture. Will it let you do a re-make on the princess theme set. When I get my game in june of AC: New Leaf -3DS. I want to get the princess theme set because I had it in AC: CF – Wii but just didn’t like sky blue for the color. I hope it’ll let a person do a re-make in the game on that furniture because I want to do hot pink or bubble gum pink on the princess theme set. 🙂
sorry @Barbiegurl777 I tried to remake the princess bed. No go. Kaizo won’t touch it.
Shame, I would have liked to see different versions of the gorgeous series.
@Jennifer
Thanks! At least you tried lol. Now I know to avoid that furniture in the game & save some bells. Thanks anyways! 🙂
I love your blog, but I must tell you this: Gracie Grace is a girl
http://animalcrossing.wikia.com/wiki/Gracie
@Grietchen as I’ve stated in previously blog entries, in the Japanese game Gracie Grace is male. In the US games Gracie Grace is female—the link to the wiki states this fact on the right sidebar. Since I am playing the Japanese game I refer to Gracie as he.
