What are you doing to make the wait more bearable?

[Snowesque]

Job searching, other hobbies, playing New Leaf, and forum activities.
Sort of wish I had the job stuff in order before release...
It is going to be hard getting un-glued from the game haha.

It's been okay for the past weeks, but now it feels like waiting for Santa. Then I have to remind myself that I've been hyped since the announcement during the E3 and back then it was still nine endless months away. It's getting harder for me to be patient because Nintendo keeps us waiting. I hope we'll get a Direct soon, that'll help me to get through the next one or two weeks, haha... Ha... Haha... *drops* orz

Think about it in different units. 720 hours feels like a lot less long to wait than a month

 

[skogkyst]

I just have to distract myself with non-video-game-related news and updates and studies. If I focus on those, then it'll be easily for time to fly by on the Animal Crossing front.

 

[Yoshisaur]

I've been trying not to think about it LOL!! Nothing is working though

 

[KazooSquirrel]

Watching Gordon Ramsay Kitchen Nightmares and trying in vain to play other video games.

Unfortunately, as a person I tend to fixate on things and right now I am fixated on ACNH and no other game can keep my attention for more than an hour.

The wait is killing me! Q.Q

 

[Yonk Raccoon]

I've been composing Animal Crossing songs. It's kind of disheartening though. I've made a post about it but it's not getting any replies. I was hoping I could make stuff for the community but I'm a very dense artist and can't tell what people want

I feel you! Well I hope it's at least a good thing to decompress with during the job stuff.

 

[DinoDymo]

I've been playing The Sims 4, Stardew, Minecraft, literally anything to distract me. Its not working tho.

 

[Mothership]

I've been trying to play other games but can't concentrate on any of them for more than an hour or so. ACNH is the only game that I want to play, but I can't for another whole month. The wait is agonizing!

 

[meggiewes]

I have upgraded from just playing New Leaf to watching streamers play New Leaf while playing New Leaf myself. lol. And cleaning. Cleaning is a good way to take your mind off the wait.

 

[Hanif1807]

Playing New Leaf and other games, Doing other fun stuffs, or any activities that make me forget that time flies fast

 

[John Wick]

Shaving those wheelknots.

 

[JKDOS]

Working a fulltime career, and keeping up on my hobbies. XD

Work makes weeks feel like a few days.

Agreed. I'm pushing for Friday every week. Friday comes, and the weekend goes fast, before you know it, it's Monday again. It's rough, but that means another week closer to launch date.

 

[DinoDymo]

Reviving this thread bc I want to see peoples answers.
I've also been trying to distract myself with new hobbies - embroidery, guitar and schoolwork mainly.

 

[DJStarstryker]

Working on my other hobbies. Preparing my NH journal so it'll be ready for the 20th. Working on my yard because warm winter made my yard full of weeds. Where is the real life Leif when you need him?

 

[Bluebellie]

Work, Netflix, and Sleep.
It?s literally been excruciating. Time was going by so fast, but not it has suddenly started going at a snails speed.
My job has been going painfully slow as well. Perhaps next week when I have a four day weekend it will pickup the pase I suppose.

 

[MissShema]

I've been playing a lot of Stardew Valley, it's so peaceful

 

[Paperboy012305]

I'm trying to get a shiny living dex for this fangame, Pok?mon Solar Light & Lunar Dark. I'm doing great so far, and i'd like to finish it before March 20th.

Another thing I'd like to finish is this Paint By Number thing that I got in 2013 yet never finished it. I'm hoping to finish it before March 20th as well.

Also. Another thing is that I've been playing all 6 of the Skylanders games from the first to last. I just completed 4 of the games so far and now I'm going on to the 5th one. I've been only playing 1 game every week to commemorate with New Horizon's release.

 

[KeatAlex]

Work, Homework, Disneyland, Movies. Trying hard but it's hard. It feels so far away

 

[mocha.]

Playing New Leaf as well as college/working, but a date has never felt so far away before! Each morning the first thing I do is check my calendar to see how long is left until the release haha.
