The things that I did before I found out about animal crossing are things I still do now, for the most part.
I take advanced courses in school, which I pretty seriously and eats up a lot of my time. Otherwise, I run and swim competitively, play a lot of Legend of Zelda (with the release of Breath of the Wild I may be neglecting my villagers a little bit), play with my dog, and read. Since I started playing Animal Crossing though, I definitely spend less time reading lol oops. xD
