Unlocked terraforming - just hitting down some ideas for how I want my town to look. I’ve already started laying some paths and messing around with the terraforming tool c:
- Met Marshal at the campsite and invited him
- Finally caught a tarantula! (learned that they don't disturb you when you aren't carrying a net)
- FINALLY caught a stringfish!!!! (was shocked by how small it actually was & was absolutely expecting yet another black bass)
I've now officially finished catching all the fish & bugs that'll be gone come April.
- Chose a plot for Able Sisters. So excited for it to open.
- Sold my turnips for a good profit.
- Found a hybrid (pink windflower - my fave colour)
- Caught my first oarfish (and caught not one but two!!) AND it's been raining all day on my island and managed to stumble across a coelacanth!
- Antonio moved in.
- Able Sisters finally opened.
- Moved Jambette's house.
- Will be attempting to catch a golden trout (and maybe a char? I think that's available this month).
- Going to invite Vesta to my campsite for the first time via amiibo (eventually I'll be getting her to move in!).
Paid off the 2nd bridge.
Set up the campsite.
Moved a bunch of trees from the villager neighborhood (I'll replant after houses are there).
Updated my pockets to the largest size.
Set up the spot for my house relocation.
Changed Flora into a school smock - it looks adorable on her!
Played treasure hunt with Snake.
Updated my wardrobe at Able Sisters'.
Spent quiet time on a bench with Lolly.
Checked mail and received an alpinist hat as a gift from Gulliver
Caught peacock butterfly for museum
Bred my first hybrid
Checked my ranking with Isabelle and still haven't reached 2 stars yet as it still says I need to increase the population so hopefully will reach 2 stars tomorrow when Cole, my 8th villager, moves in
Held a ceremony to celebrate the grand opening of Able sisters shop
Talked to all my villagers

My fourth villager was fully moved in today, so I was able to have conversations with everyone. I did my daily errands (fossils, flower watering, etc.), and went on several island tours in hopes of finding a normal villager I wanted to move into my town. Unfortunately, I haven't found anyone I want to move in so far. I may try another tour or two later, but I'm running low on Nook Miles. I'm not sure what to do about it at this point, so I may just continue to take things slowly. I'm also hesitant to speed along to the point where I can bring in Amiibo villagers thanks to the various Amiibo-related glitches, so I'm trying to hold out for now and see if any of those get patched.
My island tours weren't a complete waste, however, as I caught my first coelacanth! My island hasn't seen any rain yet, so it was fun to go to a distant rainy island and catch some fish. I also managed to find bamboo on one of the islands, which I hadn't obtained yet.
I haven't finished catching all of the creatures that won't be available next month, but I may just wait until next winter to catch the rest of them. After all, I'm in no rush to get through the game, as I want to savor my town for a while.
My first hybrid bloomed today (an orangish pansy)! I'm hoping to get some more hybrids in the coming days/weeks and figure out how I want to plant them.
I’ve been thinking about where I want to place certain things. Villagers houses being the biggest issue. Having them in one area is essential for me. I’ve placed the museum and both Nook’s Cranny and Able Sisters in the perfect spot, but I have so many ideas I’ll eventually just need to draft it all out soon.
On that note, terraforming and placing pathways is going to help drastically. Until then I feel like I can’t do much except for establishing the rough ideas in the desired areas.
i got Marina from an island tour, i rearranged my flowers, and i finished organizing my fruit trees. cj's at my island so i'll probably finish the night out with some fishing.
Honestly not much. I’ve been cleaning up trees and planting more for future use along with mentally laying out everything. I feel stuck as it is right now. I don’t feel like I know where to start and I feel like nothing is looking good.
I feel like the game just opened up for me. It really feels like it was like you know how to play now, go earn that Project K. I just moved in my campsite villager (Shep) and got the Able Sisters opened up. Of course, I had to go on a shopping spree! There were some western clothes in there today and I got a brown set and was disappointed that there was no pink version to go with the pink hat and pink boots. So, I made my own!
I also designed my town flag and customized my town music. I got my museum and my Nooks Cranny all swapped around after three days. I am working on making a little neighborhood with the villagers I have. I have no idea if it is going to work how I want to and I know I'm going to be switching my town around a lot, but I'm having fun!
Poppy will be relocating to her new spot tomorrow. I decided against moving Flora next to Hamlet because they had a big fight today. I'm going to go on a Nook Tour before bed to get some materials and hopefully some more rare bugs or fish to sell for some more cash. I'm going to need a lot of bells to move everyone around and I only have 50,000 left in my ABD again.

3/31
• The bridge was completed, and Marshal moved in.
• Mabel was back again, and this time she asked me to help her find a place to set up shop permanently! Yay! After I spent a lotta bells, I gladly picked out a spot nearby. (It ended up next to Nook's Cranny, I'm hoping I can give them more space soon)
