What Did You Accomplish On Your Island Today?

[CrankyCupcake]

Another busy-happy day!

Harriet taught me a new hairstyle and it's one I like. We had an opening ceremony for the cafe at the museum. I can drink coffee again! In Happy Home Paradise, I furnished and decorated vacation homes for 6 villagers. Unlocked the amiibo scanner, partition wall and room expansion features. Lottie had me furnish the first facility on the island, which is the school. We ended my second day at work with a little celebration party.

Screenshots of the day's events are on my island journal here.

Finally reached 5 stars! But I'm not done with my island, so I'll still play the game, upgrade my house, improve my island en explore the 2.0 update.

I'm making a holiday island for a friend that will have a "misfit toys" theme. There was an open plot and I went mystery island hopping and found Cephalobot on the first ticket. He's great for a misfit toy theme since robot octopus is a bit unusual.

Watered my flowers an crops
Ordered more stuff
Visited harvs Island for a new haircut
Ordered from redd

Visited a new kappn island

Doesn't seem like much but I am happy with what I did today

 

[daisyflowers]

today the cafe opened!! woo ! had my first cup of coffee, saw daisy mae. the music took me back lol

queued up to get various food recipes and succeeded, went to a kapp'n island where i got 13 iron nuggets + 1 gold nugget from rocks overall and there were shooting stars (though there were on my island too, so ??)

completed the photo tutorial thing (hopefully) at Harv's island so i can unlock the whole new RV thing, as i had no clue how to unlock the various people to get to stay over.

Nov. 7

Checked my mail box, got some weekly Sunday mail on top of a nice letter from Molly!

Walked around and reminded myself/brainstorm what I need to work on. Need to get some items to finish my house, revamp a sitting space into a beach prep space with changing rooms, decide how I want to redo the music space, and how I want to set up the town square. Decisions are hard.

I also set up the space where I want to move my house and am in the process of redoing quite a few things structure and island wise. I have an incline to build in two spaces and that'll be a process over the next couple days.

I haven't 'gone to work' yet since I was hesitant with how little options I have, but now that I've learned I can go back and change them I'm really excited to jump into it!

Also thinking of redoing the set up I have for my villager housing. Now that there are more fencing options I can customize them to each villagers aesthetic and really make them look nice.

For more misc stuff, need to farm balloons for more mushroom recipes and water my crops in preparation for recipes! The day is still young.
