Seoul Searching - A Return to My New Leaf Town

[Asarena]

I last played New Leaf during the Farewell to New Leaf event last year, and before that it had been a long time since I'd opened the game. But lately I've been feeling like playing it a bit again, so I thought I'd make a journal for my New Leaf adventures. I don't really remember what I was doing the last time I played, what items I have, what villagers I have, or anything else, so this should be a fun journey of rediscovery and making new progress~

To start with, my New Leaf town is called Seoul. When I started playing New Leaf I was learning Korean, and I loved Kpop and Korean shows. I still remember a decent amount of Korean, although my knowledge of the language has certainly atrophied. I listen to Kpop occasionally still, but I haven't watched any Korean shows recently.

My First Day Back​

Today I just wandered around a bit, exploring and refamiliarizing myself with the lay of the land.

I seem to have a bit of bedhead... But no time to worry about that for now! I started by checking my mail. I had a letter from Nintendo containing a Flower Fairy Dress and a farewell letter from Ruby.

My storage is almost full and there are gemstones littering the ground. Yeah, that checks out.

I put on a braided wig to cover my bedhead and began to greet some of the villagers. I started with my beloved Eunice. She looks so cute in her scarf!

I talked to Phineas and he gave me a Village Representative badge.I checked and it's my second badge. The only other one I have is called Fish Maniac.

There's a café that needs to be built. I should probably work on funding that.

I fell in a hole.

After that traumatic event, it was time for some retail therapy!

Next I decided to go see what my house looks like. These are my rooms at the moment...

And finally I checked my debt!

Current Goals: Pay off my loans, expand my house, and fund the café!

My Second Day Back​

I started the day by going to see Harriet to get my hair done! After consulting a guide, I ended up with a cute ponytail in my preferred shade of brown.

Next up I took a trip to the museum. These are my exhibit rooms at the moment:

I also checked my collection, and I'm missing a good number of bugs, fish, and deep-sea creatures, so I'll need to try to collect more of those.

Always have to hit the shops and see what's for sale!

I collected some fruit and shells to sell, and I caught some fish and sold those as well.

I fell in another hole.

Also, I do have another character in my town, and this is his house:

I made sure to talk to Broffina after the conversation we had yesterday, and I did talk to some other villagers as well.

I donated about 50k bells to help fund the café.

And that was all for the day! I'm going to keep trying to earn more bells each day to pay off my loan and get the café funded. I really would like to expand my house some more and start (re)decorating~
