What Did You Accomplish On Your Island Today?

  • Moved Wolfgang's house into the neighborhood
  • Made some paths
  • Trolled around for thought bubbles to see if anyone wanted to move
(it doesn't look like I did much but the path stuff actually took a while. I'm artistically challenged)
 
Here's what happened on Shione Island today!

4/27
• Kevin's wearing his present, I'm still so happy he liked it :)
• Kicks has returned, so I of course stopped by.
• Maddie showed me how to make a wooden-block stool
• Kevin taught me how to sneeze...
• Went to other islands in search of DIY recipes...
• Saw a cool garden idea in another town and decided to try it out in mine. Looks pretty good!
• Thanks to a friend, I managed to reach 100 wishes made!
• Harry was thinking of moving, but I've decided I'm not ready for him to go just yet. He's sticking around for longer!
• Kevin showed me how to make a pear hat.
• Went around fishing for a while.
 
Added Sherb and voided Daisy.

Tore down all my simple fencing and replaced it with the hedge fence DYI that Leif gave me...

Tried and failed again at getting a Golden Trout...
 
-Same dailies as usual.

-Got my first green mum! So accomplishment there as that's my first "rare" flower bred from store seeds.

-No landscaping today (probably gonna take a break for a few days tbh lol).

The main noteworthy thing was I saw and caught 3 tarantulas somehow. The fact 3 even appeared after the nerf is really crazy to me.

Today I found all my fossils. I watered all my hybrids which took so long. I finally ordered the rest of the my diner sets so now I will have all of them for catalogging. It was my first day without Hazel, and Stitches is moving in tomorrow. I met wisp and am in the process of getting his parts. I also had Saharah and was able to get the imperial and cafe curtained wall. I went to someone else's town and bought a bunch of books in order to finish my outdoor library. I was able to make it to meet Celeste and get meteor shower wishes.

Here's what happened on Shione Island today!

4/28
• There were Taurus Fragments on the beach today! Awesome!
• I made the Taurus Bathtub!
• Purple tulips have started growing!!!
• Label visited again, this time with a "work" theme. She gave me some socks.
• Rex showed me how to express "Shyness".
• I accidentally smacked Wisp with a net; while he did his usual speech, it was accidentally made funnier. He gave me a beach chair (maybe he learned his lesson after LAST time? XD)
• Visited a few islands for DIYs, and to sell my turnips!
• Paid off my loan with my turnip profits! XD (I'm thinking I'll agree to the next upgrade tomorrow)
 
I built a graveyard. If Leif ever gets a shop, I plan to integrate it into the Graveyard.

I finally got some Green Mums for my desert.

Scheduled the final house relocation (for now). Every house is in its proper spot.

Mitzi moved away to a new home. I will find a replacement for her tomorrow. Only one tutorial Villager left.
 
I've slowed my pace since Friday. I've been thinking about every area of my island and how can I make it look exactly as I have envisioned. It's now a delicate task, almost like micromanaging. The placement of every flower, every weed, every kind of cobblestone and clovers (a set of patterns I got), trees and objects, all of this with the need to make everything look and feel organic, it's now my mission.

That being said, I've built a second bridge across the river that cuts the island horizontally. It eases the access to the north section, and makes navigation through the island a lot better and more fluid. Also, I asked Nook to demolish the brick staircase connecting the west section to the woods. The brick staircase doesn't fit the "art direction" of the island, as I've been using only log staircases, and the common suspension bridge. That also means that I'll soon need to demolish a log bridge I was forced to build as part of the "story progression". It will be replaced with a suspension bridge, or - and I'm still kinda unsure about this - I'll just get rid of it and leave that part of the canal without a bridge.

I also started to measure an area next to the plaza, as I'm contemplating the idea of completely reworking the placement of both shops; the idea is to place the Cranny right next to the plaza on ground level, without any gaps between them, and elevating the land immediately behind the Cranny, where I'll place the Able Sister's store, the snack and drink machines, decorating the area with hedges or bushes. A staircase to access that area will be place next to the Cranny, and this is the only place where I would consider building a brick staircase, but I'll probably end up using either a log staircase (the standard of the island) or a natural incline.

I've changed the museum's location and planted some orange tea olive bushes around it, with a couple floor light placed on the ground right in front of it.

Tomorrow I'll make a trip to the Cranny to buy several cedar sapplings. I'll need soon, so it's better if I already have them stored (mostly because I often work on the island when the stores are closed).
 
-Bought roses and olive bushes from Leif
-Caught 3 coealacanths and 2 oarfish (There was a storm in my island today)
-Bought clothes from Able sisters
-Bought furniture from nook shopping and nooks cranny
-Talked to all of my villagers and learned DIY from them
-Found 2 DIYs today
-Finally demolished an incline for terraforming
-Learned the agreement reaction
-Did daily requests
-Dug fossils that were duplicates
-Didn’t have to water flowers today because it was raining
 
Yesterday I tracked down the last Cherry-Blossom DIY recipes I needed. These ones I purchased from other players yesterday for varying amounts:
Blossom-Viewing Lantern
Cherry Blossom Clock
Cherry-Blossom Petal Pile
Cherry-Blossom Trees Wall
Sakura-Wood Flooring
Sakura-Wood Wall
The Viewing Lantern in particular was a big hassle to find, and I had to trade away 2 ironwood DIY for it. Worth it though!

I was also able to acquire a good amount of other rare DIY for cheap due to reddit listings, and in other cases visited other players islands whose villagers were crafting rare items. And I did some merching of certain rare items, I think I increased my net worth by a good amount despite shelling out cash/NMT/DIYs for the Cherry-blossom DIYs.

For my Island, I did some terraforming of my main town square area, moved the Nook's cranny to its (hopefully) final location, figured out where the Museum is going, and made most of the main river. I also finally demolished the first log bridge I made during the main storyline the game moves you through.
