Day 152, 153, and 154
Unfortunately, it seems despite taking it easy, feeling better went away and it’s back to feeling awful 🙁 Which may be in part due to the suddenly be scheduled work and having to rush somewhere to get that done. Hoping it won’t be too much longer before things go back to getting better. Regardless, I dislike not playing for a while and 3 days is probably the most I haven’t…thus, it was time to load up the game regardless. I sadly wouldn’t have much time later so it’s an early playthrough–hopefully none of the late risers want to move :/ Might at least try and poke in for a second to check on them…
Anyway, I did get lucky and Flurry wanted to move so I was able to easily stop her without worrying if I’d get a chance to pop on later.
IT WILL NEVER BE THE RIGHT TIME, FLURRY.
And as you may notice… I had a Camper today.
Even though I won’t be asking any Campers to move in, I still have fun checking who’s here.
I didn’t do too much else–but I did notice I still don’t have my gold gardening badge so I may try planting something everyday… Palm Trees and planting stuff even if they don’t grow count (like a normal tree on the beach), right?
Day 151
Despite (thankfully) feeling so much better today, I decided to still take it a bit easy due to not wanting to overdo it and then feel awful again. Thus, I mostly just spent time talking to and doing favors for my villagers.
I would’ve liked to visit some Dream Suites, but I always get carried away…
I do want to give a special Thank you to Mikayla though for holding a Tteok Plate for me while I’ve been feeling so bad T~T I really appreciate it! <3 Hopefully the feeling better train continues at this rate.
And to end this--something I've wanted to do for a while:
Plan to make it transparent once I find time to go through all 108 frames to do so.
Day 149
I managed to get a good amount done this morning. Besides checking on my villagers, I also stopped by Zed’s to hang out with him and Rainy.
Then it was over to Chananr’s for weeding.
I got a Hydrangea Bed 😀 I had needed one more so I was super excited.
I also ran into Joan.
I didn’t buy any, but she did have a good price today.
In which we talk about the things we couldn’t have
As most people know, my town is pretty much done. It’s mostly a waiting game at this point for DLC not out yet with the exception of the Harvest Day items later this month. Even the last Public Work I want I will be unable to unlock for several months and I won’t have the biggest tree until late October next year so it’s just a lot of waiting around. The only thing I can really do now is hope for a Balloon to come back where I want a present and that’s just luck…
But regardless, there’s still things I wish I could’ve done–from my original set-up I had to make smaller to more complicated things like a vertical row of trees. I always like the idea of running through a Path of trees, but sadly, there was no place I could fit such a thing in town that it wouldn’t look odd–the closest would’ve been down from my house–but just like I couldn’t fit the full set-up, I wouldn’t have enough room for trees on each side due to the restrictions.
There are no other long areas besides that–they all have houses that interrupt or come to an end or are surrounded by something (like the Plaza) that just won’t make it happen. And a line on one side kind of ruins the effect. So it’s just something I’ll never be able to do unless the maps get like…magically bigger or something. That’d be neat if they did a Wii U version–transfer your town and the town would be expanded based off it and you could then move things around and stuff and it’d be nice.
But yes, back to some other things…
Some people may recall I really wanted the Beach on the East side. While I still would’ve liked that, I think I’m too used to it on the West now and while there’s a lot I preferred to the East, the Museum looks kind of odd to the West IMO.
I would’ve really liked a Down-Facing Waterfall. I find it’s hard to fish off the sideways ones. But yeah… map issues.
I really wanted a Woodsy area near the Camp Site–but I don’t think there would’ve been anywhere I could do that for it on this map.
I originally wanted the Cafe on the cliffside with the water pump and stuff to the right instead of the left–I think it may look better now though… but I still would’ve liked the Streetlight closer to it over across from it.
As people may remember, I had to get rid of my Instrument Center as the original bridge now counted to the 30 count. Ignoring that I’m still sad about it, there’s actually A LOT of Public Works I’ve wanted so here’s the full list before I did the narrowing down to 30 + original bridge (and then 29 + original bridge :/) of the ones that didn’t make the cut:
Instrument Center
Fairytale Bench
Tire Toy
Bus Stop
Zen Clock
Garbage Can
Round Streetlight
Streetlight
Fairy-tale Streetlight
Zen Streetlight
Balloon Arch
Illuminated Arch
Flower Bed
Illuminated Tree
Sandbox
Scarecrow
Tulip Topiary
Square Topiary
Wisteria Trellis
Stonehenge
Tower
Wind Turbine
If I was able to make a nice Camp Area:
Log Bench
Fire Pit
If I could’ve put stuff on the beach:
Hammock
Torch
So yes, it was very hard to narrow things down 😛
I’d have loved to have more decorative patterns too for various things… but nope, hit the limit on that too
