What Did You Accomplish On Your Island Today?

  • did some swimming. got only one diy from pascal and is still drowning in pearls but i mean it's a start
  • fixed up different areas around my island and added new ones
  • organized storage and sold clothes i don't like anymore. also got rid of doubles i bought bc im an idiot
  • flowers control. gonna just put custom flower designs all over from now on lmao
  • browsed for new custom designs at able. found a couple of new ones that i really like
 
- Did a bit of island hopping, my sisters were looking for a deer villager and I found Erik the Lazy Deer after 5-15 hops! Might post my results on the Island-Hopping thread later tomorrow.
- Crafted up a bunch of fences to get my flower garden by my house going! I can't wait to finish with it ;~;
- Started trying to breed pink wildflowers (my favorite type of flower in the fame tbh) because I have enough blue ones by now.
- Found some super cool diys in some balloons that were floating by, I can't wait to start crafting them once I have some more summer shells!
- Made some new wand clothing changes. I finally got my character a straw hat, and I think it looks super cute!! I'll display a photo below in a spoiler :)
- Racked up a few thousand bells, I'll have to grind a lot more if I want to help my friend! What happened to her was... super uncool and she really didn't deserve it, so I'm trying to get more bells on hand in case she needs them <3
- Fixed my bedroom up a little bit! It wasn't amazing but I've always been prone to not having my animal crossing houses have very many things on the inside, but I'm trying to get more things and make it flow a bit better.

I managed to place new furniture in the wilderness part of my island! I also plucked the flowers of purple hyacinths and yellow mums so I could make more hyacinth lamps and mum cushions which I would use in the long run for the left part of my island. I managed to make tons of trades either through discord or TBT. Got a couple of NMT's from trading one of my fake gallant statues for TBT. I also stomped on most of my cockroaches roaming in my house xD
 
I've been trying to get villager photos the new way. I don't know if having a full pocket to prevent them from giving me gifts on the spot still allows me to get photos in the mail. Then I worked a bit on my island entrance. I can see what people were talking about with the residents area. I'm a little bummed out by it being a tad too close. Then I went to find Pascal his scallop. I tried to create a coffee shop pattern, but it didn't turn out how I had hoped so I scrapped it. Then I did the Fireworks Show thing.
 
So
  • Terraformed my house area
  • Talked to my villagers
  • Checked Redd and nothing
  • Bought stuff from Nooks
  • Checked Ables
  • Did some dailies
  • Did a few requests for villagers
  • Did some grinding
  • Removed some leftover flowers
 
- dug up fossils and got them evaluated and sold
- gifted my villagers whose photos I do not have (Ursala, Avery, Merengue, Daisy, Stitches. Bianca and Lionel have only just moved in so can't gift them yet)
- Paid for a new bridge
- did some building work and moved some things around
- plucked 5 purple hyacinths to make a lamp

Been a productive day, looking forward to seeing the new bridge built tomorrow! 🌉
 
I got Sally's photo this morning in my mail! It's the first villager I've received a photo from, so I'm really happy about it.

- Got the last gold rose I was looking for. Now I'm just working on blue roses, purple pansies, and a couple more purple tulips.
- Finished my fairy village, at least until autumn. I have some things from that I want to use, but I have to wait a bit.
- Figured out my flamingo beach. I'm just waiting for a few more bamboo to finish growing. And I made nests that approximate what a real flamingo uses. Again, that will get finished this autumn.

Everything else will have to wait until this evening, when I get home.
 
I fell way behind due to the Big Depresso, but I'm trying to get back on track :)
Here's what's happened on Shione Island for the past few days:

8/4
  • In-Game Mom sent me a present: her Pen Stand (which I later customized)!
  • Finally made some Mermaid Flooring!
  • Poor Gayle was sick :( I made sure to get her some medicine straight away.
  • Found Gulliver washed up on shore today.
  • Pekoe showed me how to make a log extra-long sofa.
  • Ordered Mr. K.K. from the Daily Selection.
  • Found a pearl!
  • Today's scallop earned me another pearl from Pascal.
  • Completed all of today's bonus NM+ offers.
8/5
  • Redd was here, today! I bought a Quaint Painting off of him.
  • Unexpectedly, today's Turnip price jumped out of the double-digits: 101 bells. Still, I decided to search elsewhere for better prices.
  • Gave presents to all of my residents :)
  • Visited the island of Hogsmeade (which was very pretty! ), where the turnip price was 496; I made BANK. (1,190,400 bells in total! :D)
  • I had invited a friend over to help me with crafting: I needed three western-style stones to finish my cemetary, but didn't have the recipe myself. The code I had to give them (and I can't make this up) spelt this:

    And so, I ended up opening my gates later than planned, because I couldn't stop laughing.
  • Paid off a small chunk of my loan.
  • Got another pearl from Pascal!
  • Completed all of today's bonus NM+ offers.
  • Sent a letter to Marina!
  • Celeste appeared, and gave me a recipe for the Leo Sculpture.
  • A few stars fell! I made sure to make wishes when I could!
  • Discovered you can actually read the papers on the Tanbata; the one I read looked like it was written by Gayle or Pekoe.
8/6
  • The Quaint Painting arrived! I made sure to deliver it to Blathers!
  • Patty told me that Label was here today!
  • Found star fragments on the beach (and was thus finally able to craft the shell wand).
  • Ordered clothing to give as presents to my villagers tomorrow.
  • A package meant for Plucky accidentally ended up at Marina's house instead, so I offered to deliver it.
  • Found a pearl!
  • After finding a scallop, Pascal gave me a Mermaid Tiara.
  • Label gave me a "party" theme to work with; thanks to Pascal, I had a full Mermaid Outfit by now, and so that's what I wore. Label was thrilled, and gave me a black coat from her clothing line (I like it a lot! ).
  • Gave out a few more presents I'd been saving in storage, and also cleared out some storage space.
8/7
  • Recieved two tailor's tickets in the mail from Label!
  • Ordered K.K. Adventure from the Daily Selection.
  • Watered my purple tulips in attempt to make them cross-pollinate.
  • Gayle showed me how to make a western-style stone... :eek: (I'm suddenly worried I've been irritating her...)
  • After timidly offering her the dress I'd ordered for her, Gayle completely surprised me; I finally recieved her picture! Huzzah! :D
  • Flick was here today, which reminded me of all of the beetles I had saved up for him in storage.
  • Rex left something behind at Plucky's house, so I offered to take it back over to him.
  • Delivered more presents!
  • At long last, I FINALLY HAVE A 5-STAR RANKING!!! 🎉:LOL:🎉 SWEET VICTORY!!! (I have no idea why finishing the cemetery gave me the final star, but okay)
  • Isabelle then gave me the recipe for the golden watering can! :D (I later crafted it)
  • Took a nap so I could ask Luna to update the dream of Shione.
  • Grabbed all of my extra beetles to sell to Flick, and grabbed my Horned Hercules beetles so to make a collectible. The sum of the rest of the beetles totaled out to 406,500 bells!
  • Found a flatworm!
  • After finding a scallop, Pascal gave me a recipe for the Mermaid Wall!
  • Paid off a small chunk of my loan, and I now have over 6M in savings!
8/8 (today was short)
  • Delivered a few presents.
  • Today's scallop earned me a pearl from Pascal.
  • Requested K.K. Lullaby, without realizing I already had a copy of the song...
8/9
  • Got changed for the fireworks show!
  • Today's S-Rank from the HHA puts me at 197,798 points :) so close to 200K!
  • Updated the fireworks lineup.
  • Today's scallop earned me a recipe from Pascal; I can now make a Mermaid Vanity!
8/10
  • Watered my purple tulips, which proved pointless after 2pm (when it conveniently decided to rain).
  • Redd was here today, and 3 of the 4 pieces were real! I chose the Scary Painting, and then put out a call for anyone looking for the Sinking or Dynamic paintings.
  • A fourth Lily-of-the-Valley plant grew in!
  • Gayle sent me on a treasure hunt; it didn't take long, as it wasn't far from my house (only 30 seconds). It turned out to be a cassette player.
  • Patty was thinking about moving away, but I was able to change her mind.
  • Ordered Only Me from the Daily Selection.
  • I recieved a pearl from Pascal after I found a scallop for him.
  • Opened my gates to allow two friends to pick up the other paintings. One of them pointed out that a double rainbow had started to appear! It was so pretty! :D
  • On that note, the rain stopped at 4pm.
  • Went searching for a Soft-Shelled Turtle, but didn't have much luck, today 😅

I'm gonna try to not fall so far behind again.
 
I decided to move my cafe and shopping area around this weekend and changed the placement for what seems like the billionth time in the last 2 days. I also helped gullivarr.
 
Move a building. Decided to shrink down my museum area because I want the space back for other project areas.
 
Did a bunch of trades and got the first rock where it needs to be on my rock garden! Also got all my mush lamps today which I’m really excited about ^u^
 
  • Built my last incline
  • Added some more decor to Bones' yard with items from a trade today (still have Ankha, Chief, and Graham's yards to embellish)
  • Agnes taught me the last uchi reaction! :love:
 
Believe it or not, Redd had TWO genuine pieces of art. I bought them both (main and alt).
 
Got all my rocks moved and was finally able to erase the extra paths I had to help control where they ended up 😄 Still not sure I love the location of the last one but, for now, they all look nice and are still easy to collect (I didn't do a full-on rock garden, but I still chose spots where I thought they'd work best. I also spruced up my beach DIY workshop area and gave Maple a little laundry area just outside her house.
 
I restarted my island last night so not a lot but I got my museum back and am working on getting my shop.
 
Since restarting my island, here's what I managed to accomplish. I time-traveled to speed up the process a bit... ;; So this is in the course of 3 TT days, iirc.

8/10 (to 8/13)

  • picked up a TON of weeds, I don't like when my island has a lot of weeds even starting out. I cleared out as much as I could!

  • paid off my living expenses, upgraded my house twice, working on the 3rd upgrade now.

  • got nook's cranny built

  • got the museum built

  • finally managed to put all the stuff I dropped off at @NoUsernameHere 's island in my storage! yaay~

  • upgraded my inventory (3 rows babie!)

  • finished the 3 home-plots! using my nmt to move villagers of my choice in instead of having it randomized -3-

  • visiting NUH (again) to pick up my flowers ;w;

  • accumulated over 10k Nook Miles since starting not even 24 hours ago LOL
