First thing yesterday I ran into Phineas. I knew what he was there for—to give me a badge for completing my bug encyclopedia, even though I was secretly hoping he would give me the badge for visiting dream villages. A girl can…dream. I play Animal Crossing. I get to pun.

Thanks to Miiverse’s screen capture I was even able to get a clear picture of my current badge album. I had to screen capture in order to get it for the blog, but at least I know I can take decent pictures of letters and stuff now!

Redd’s Letdowns

Had Redd again. Didn’t get what I needed. Got a flowery painting I’m wondering if I should even bother saving these paintings.

Snow Family

Yesterday I made a snowmam (WTH is a snowmam? Why couldn’t it just be snowmama? Is the one letter really too long?). Ahem. I think I’m just bitter because she went on and on about her beauty and refinement and then proceeded to tell me that she wanted five snowflakes for a piece of the ice set. I didn’t feel like snowflake hunting all day, so she only got one set of five and all I got was an ice wall.

Today in Hanabi

I started out with Locke today because I had a bunch of stuff on the ground I wanted her to pick up. After that she rolled out a perfect snowman.

Tomorrow with a little luck I’ll put together a snowtyke and get a present. 🙂 I missed out on a couple of those last year in Kasen due to my atrocious snowman making abilities, so I’m going for the snowtyke presents first this year.

After that Vella took over. She still has to visit a town for Shep’s “Cute Animals are Cute” petition. I thought that was a given?

Vella found a lost…something…on the ground. I was really hoping it belonged to Tia or Julian because it seems like animals often give you their picture for returning lost items, but sadly when I inquired both denied that it was theirs.

Turns out it was Rooney’s. I already have his picture so the excitement about returning it sort of faded.

I spy with my Little Eye

You know how I was hoping to get a letter from the museum after completing it? Didn’t happen. Turns out you get the museum model the same way you get all the other wallpapers and floors for completing collections: by lucking into them upstairs. I didn’t have to wait too long for it though.

I’ll have to give one to Yumi for Toy Day since those elusive 3 paintings for her museum might take a while.

Aside from that

My townies keep telling me 1) they’re cold 2) the fishing tourney is tomorrow. I’m not sure if it’s going to be a free for all tourney or a specific fish tourney, so I don’t know if I should spend the evening catching big fish on the island. As you can tell from my badge picture I still need to catch a lot of fish, so even if tomorrow is a specific fish tourney I could use the fish and profits could go toward expanding Olive’s house.

I still haven’t had an igloo! I want an igloo!

Dreaming

Continuing with my dreams of ACUKE members’ towns I visited Astrid’s second town of Belea.

After that I visited Paarl. I don’t know if it was old Paarl or new Paarl? Regardless, I loved the rooms.

P.S. I received a US copy of Animal Crossing New Leaf from Nintendo. Thanks, Nintendo!
