My Life in WordsThoughts, scribbles, doodles, videos.
Welcome to my blog where all my thoughts and ideas get put into text. |

とびだせ どうぶつの森 Tobidase Dōbutsu no Mori Oh my goodness, where do I even begin? I started my adventure in Animal Crossing the day it game out, and it has been absolutely amazing so far. I think I have managed to at least check out my shops on a daily basis, even if I couldn't play for a longer period of time. I have a few friends that are also playing, so having a few different villages to hang out in is pretty neat! I think we now have every fruit except for apple... It is being quite the elusive fruit. It's even better when we all wind up on the island together and do some island tours though; they're pretty hilarious. As in previous Animal Crossing games, the player takes role of a newcomer to the village. The difference with this instance is that you get mistaken to be the mayor! As the newly instated mayor, it is the players duty to create a wonderful environment for the town, as well as craft public work projects either at their own whim or at the behest of the other villagers. I think one of my favorite parts so far is the new dress system; the last Animal Crossing game I played was the original one on my Gamecube! It seems like forever ago, and I still have my old memory cards with the different villages on them. On my first day, I found the Steampunk glasses, but no corresponding outfit; the natural course of action for me was to create my own steampunk dress. I've since created a Fi dress, a Strawberry Chocolate shirt, and a Ramen Pusheen long-sleeved dress. The pusheen one was inspired by the shirt on the website, Hey Chickadee! I've also upgraded my home a few times now, and have the largest sized main floor, a relatively large upstairs, as well as a room in the back and one off to the right. I'm currently working on paying off my Eastern room so I can switch the items in the Northern room with the items currently in storage over there. I finished my museum renovation today, which means that instead of my museum displaying only fossils, fishes, bugs, and paintings, it can now also display rooms as created by villagers. Since I have some furniture that I don't actually want to display in my house, this was the perfect solution! One thing that was driving us absolutely crazy for the longest while was the presents that float overhead... They no longer eventually get stuck in a tree, but will rather float over your town and then beyond it if you do not have a trusty slingshot with you... The real reason they're frustrating is because it's the only way to fully collect the "Balloon Set". My museum is getting to be quite full! I think I've caught at least 60% of all sea critters, as well as close to 80% of all the fossils. I try to make it my policy to donate the first of everything, so that way I never have to worry about whether I've already donated one or not. If there's no "I wonder what my encyclopedia says about ___", then it's a good animal/fossil/bug to sell. Makes it way less stressful, haha! I'll upload more pictures of my house as it gets closer to completion. I finally decided on my bedroom set, and moved my main floor upstairs, as I liked the set, as a whole, more. I may still change my mind as I collect more of the "Patchwork Set". I'm quite excited to gather the rest of it and put it together. I love candy quite a bit, so I'm also working on a Candy set for my back room, and a Mario themed set for another. I haven't quite decided what I want to put in the Mario one yet, though, as no room is large enough to display everything and still be livable. I also need to find just the right outfit, as the crown I'm wearing is part of the "Ornate Look", and my dress is currently "Iconic". Hmm. Decisions decisions. Stay Tuned!

4 days where I'm busier than I am on days where I'm not off...It was super awesome seeing my family this Easter weekend, we had tons of food and it was happy go fun times! I also got a chance to *finally* play the new Metal Gear game, Metal Gear Rising Revengeance on my Xbox 360! So far, absolutely loving it, Raiden is awesome. The only thing I wish that they had done (probably because I've never played a Metal Gear game in my life prior to this, excepting Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions, which was AWFUL) was made a tutorial explaining a little bit more about Raiden's combat skills. However, my lack of talent with it was most likely entirely my fault, and not the game for not holding my hand enough. I wound up playing about an hour of the game, then did some VR missions, which definitely helped me out in learning some of Raiden's skills, though I have absolutely no idea how I'm going to get close to getting some of those times. Hopefully by the time I beat the game, I'll have improved... maybe? I managed to remember one of my favorite songs of all time, and one that I was always pretty decent at singing, as it fits pretty much perfectly into my range, Kaze ni Naru (Become the Wind) from The Cat Returns. I'm working on a piece of artwork to sit there while the Youtube video is playing, so I'll hopefully have that finished by Monday evening, so I can post the video. My version is obviously a little different, as my voice sounds quite different, but I'm pretty happy with it. I will also be posting my PSO 2 White Day video tomorrow night, as I simply keep forgetting to do anything about it until it's roughly this time of night (3 am, whoops!). I guess that's everything... Oh! I downloaded the demo for Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, and it is one of the cutest things I have ever seen. I chose to look like a Pikachu, and just the way the Pokemon reacts to things and how I run make me super happy. It isn't very challenging at this point, but I will most likely pick up the game to go with my new Pikachu 3DS XL. |
