What Are You Happy About Today?

Yep, you guessed it - the AC direct! lol

Man, what an amazing experience. Now THIS is an update! It puts other game companies like Bethesda to shame! lol Nintendo sure knows how to hype it up!

I mean, I thought this game was overwhelming enough, but Nintendo decided to give me a heart attack anyway. lmao
 
Two wonderful things today:
  • The amazing Animal Crossing Nintendo direct
  • the movie Halloween Kills came out today and I'm going to be seeing it! I've been waiting to see it forever, it was supposed to come out last year but was delayed a year due to covid.
Oh and last night I got Cube's photo! I was so shocked, I wasn't even trying to get his photo, and he just gave me it after I returned his lost book. That was the first photo I've ever gotten from a villager in the game and including New Leaf.
 
• dude. the AC direct today? ****in WILD. new villagers? returning older villagers? permanent ladders? cooking? gyroids? happy home designer part 2? Kappn and Katrina and HARRIET???? im deceased.
• I should be getting Pinball (NES) in a few days and I'm gonna get Dr. Mario here soon!
• Im getting a much needed haircut shortly :)
• today is/was a beautiful day for a drive, a little bit overcast and not too hot/cold <3

edit: idk how I forgot to mention this but my brother bought me the SM64 question block Lego set?? like I already knew he was the best bro ever but jesus he's setting the bar so high 😭😭💕

I am so happy the city fixed the blocked sewer pipe asap this morning. It only took them an hour or 2 which was such a relief. The sewer line had literally backed up into our backyard and all our neighbours waste had combined into one big poopy puddle. 😭 It was basically a free swimming pool if you're brave enough, that smelled like death 💀

Still depressed about my kitty but a few things made me happy:

@jadetine surprised me with this drawing 😭. I am so overwhelmed with so many emotions (positive ones of course) because she really didn’t have to do this for me; am so touched by her thoughtfulness and generosity and her creativity & talent of course too.

Thank you so much! I feel my day can be a better one thanks to this wonderful surprise. ☺️💜

I still need to finish watching the nintendo direct; I skimmed through it a little and saw cooking and can’t help but be a bit more excited.

I just did another pull on this banner in a game and while I still did not get a new unit, I got an ultra rare ark and one I really wanted.

This morning my gray kitty dipped her paw in the water which they rarely do because they sometimes can’t see there is water; I thought it was so cute. She also still is very responsive and is still showing me affection and purring ☺️. I hope she can live as long as possible without suffering. 🥺
 
everything they showed in the AC direct this morning made me feel off the rails in the best way possible so. that made me happy today <3 great way to start a day

i watched it with my girlfriend and she's always a joy to hang out with so that was a blast as well ☺️ we don’t voice call very often and i like hearing her talk
 
I'm happy about the AC Direct like many of us here, but what makes me happier than the direct itself is that so many people are happy because of it! It's been so long since we've had this many people who were actually happy with New Horizons, and I'm so glad to see a ton of positivity surrounding the content we're about to receive right now!
 
Today I'm happy about a few things:

- I slept pretty deeply again last night.
- I woke up with very little back pain and haven't had much pain throughout the day either.
- I had a chiropractor appointment and a good massage.
- I saw a squirrel, a crow, and a monarch butterfly in the backyard today. Seeing the butterfly reminded me of a time when one had just come out of its cocoon on my back porch and it sat on my finger for a while as it dried its wings before flying away. 🦋
- It's Friday and I have the weekend off!

I'm so sorry about your kitty. I hope that you and she will have as much quality time together as possible.

Thank you so much! 💜 I appreciate it! We will ☺.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend :). I’m glad you had little back pain when you woke up. 🙂
 
posting a lil earlier than i normally do just in case i fall asleep aha, but today was fairly decent! 😊

i of course have to jump on the bandwagon and mention the acnh direct, because HOLY S***! i genuinely wasn’t sure what to expect at all, but nintendo has officially blown me away. i have no words, other than that i’m so freakin’ excited for november 5th! and also that shino is the loml. <3
obtained the purple and white violet collectibles, which were two of my dream collectibles and the last basic flower collectibles i needed!! tysm again, @Corrie! 💜
finally finished watching s4 of on my block, and it was fantastic! i’m sad that it’s over, but it really was a great series and the finale made me smile a lot. :’)

I had ordered myself a case for my switch after a few months of delaying it since I’m heading on out to see my cousin for her son’s first birthday. We tend to play Animal Crossing sometimes when she has time to spare after taking care of her child, so it’s nice to see her again after a few months of not seeing her.

I got lucky and found a art book of yet another series I want at a cheap price and snatched it, so that makes six in total that I have now (at least when the three that have yet to arrive come next week since it’s what I get for getting them at a good price-)

Also, the ACNH direct made me excited for all of the stuff that will be arriving in three weeks, so I’m eager to get the dlc and do so much more when the update drops.

I’m soo, soo happy with the update coming to New Horizons and I finally got the island I’ve been wanting for awhile. I had to reset a few times today to find it, but I finally did! Also starting today to try to rack up some more tbt for one last username change, as I found one that I like that will be permanent. I’m about 800 or so short, so it will be awhile raising up tbt for it. Changing my username will also help me with signing my artwork when I start making some. Thinking of starting an art gallery in the museum, but gotta get that username change first. 🙂
 
Like a lot of people have mentioned, the ACNH Direct today really brightened my spirits! There was so much cool and exciting news, and I got so, so many of the things I've been hoping for—I'm really looking forward to the 5th! I really love a lot of the new villagers too, and I'm totally planning on getting Shino as a permanent resident!
I put the money that was refunded from my August merch order into ordering another otome fanbook for myself! It's a shame about the items I couldn't get ahold of, but at least I'm still getting something cool for myself this way! c:
Went to pick up the cake for my mom's birthday party tomorrow and got some ice cream while we were out! Good thing it was in a cup so I could keep the leftovers in the freezer—I have a low tolerance for sweets and haven't actually managed to finish it yet. ^^; We also got some pizza and some cinnamon sticks, which are wonderful.
I placed third in goomy's contest!! There were so many good entries, I'm very happy I was able to place! ^^
 
I really like the orange colors of the fall aesthetic. It makes me look forward to the blue that is very likely to come with the winter theme. The orange suits the site well, in my opinion.
I’m having KFC for lunch. They don’t open for another hour so it looks like I will be waiting a bit, but I am already anticipating the deliciousness that is the famous bowl.
I’m excited for some of the college football games today. There should be a few good ones. I can’t forget hockey either.
 
  • I went to the movie theater with my friend last night and we saw Halloween Kills, it was really good
  • I'm super excited for the next several months, so many good things happening including: Halloween, carving pumpkins, Thanksgiving (I'm cooking a turkey this year, didn't last year), Christmas, New Years, the amazing animal crossing update coming November 5th plus the paid DLC too, the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl remakes coming out next month, the new Pokémon game Legends Arceus coming out late January, I'm hoping to get back into college to take one class while I hopefully get a part-time job after the holidays (I am only taking 1 or 2 classes at a time because I don't want to overwhelm myself, I have a few mental health disorders), the cool weather, practicing on my new tenor ukulele a lot. Overall it's just going to be an awesome time!! :D
