Last night, I opened the gates to share the new dalmatian model DLC from Europe. Here's what it looks like: I think it's so cute! But why is the puppy checking out his own ass? Whatever... lol! A few friends came by to pick up a copy of the new Nintendog. Miao arrived first, and …
EU DLC: Dalmatian Model
The final Nintendog has been released! It's a Dalmatian model! I don't have a photo yet (only just ordered them, waiting for them to arrive by mail!) but in the catalog it looked REALLY cute! I heart dalmatians! I ordered about 6 for my "regular visitors." I'll open the Shaolin Gates tonight at 11PM if …
The DLC Market
Yesterday was the Flea Market in Animal Crossing! I almost forgot to participate (despite having caught a bunch of fish and leaving them in my house earlier this week... lol) but luckily my boyfriend reminded me after I got off work! I was all set to sell off the stupid fish. Not that I had …
OMG AGENT S! OMG
The Animal Crossing Gods have smiled upon Shaolin this week. Since Broccolo left me, I was a bit down in the dumps. Now there aren't any "original neighbors" in my town. BUT... Yesterday, Agent S moved into Shaolin! She took Broccolo's house location, so I guess that will help me forget about him. I was …
Mid-Autumn and a Strange Note
We are about half-way through Autumn now, and there's only ten days left until Halloween! I'm super excited. I don't have work on the 31st so I'll be able to focus on obtaining the entire Spooky series, as well as the extra Jack items! Woo hoo! If you want to freshen up on what we're …
Grass Change and a Note in a Bottle
Yesterday, I logged onto AC just after sunset. I had heard from Vella that the lima bean green grass had finally changed color! I don't know if it was the purple twilight lighting, but everything was looking violet. I'll have to take a photo during the daytime to make a real evaluation. But I compared …
Broccolo’s Leaving :(
This past week I've been worried about who was going to leave Shaolin next. I talked to as many neighbors as I could find in the short time I've been able to log on. But none of the townies had volunteered to move out, so I knew it was going to be someone unexpected. I'm …
体育の日 and Explorer’s Day
Last week, this bulletin appeared on the Message Board in Shaolin. Explorer's Day was coming! In the USA, today is really Columbus Day, but I guess Nintendo didn't want to be specific? After all, why doesn't Magellan get a holiday? Anyway, everyone in Shaolin was excited for the coming event. Everything around town is starting …
Autumn Moon
Well, it turns out that Japan wasn't the only country to have a festival about the moon this week. Not sure how I missed this before, but there was a bulletin regarding the Autumn Moon posted on the 3rd: So in the evening yesterday, I went to the Town Hall to talk to Tortimer about …
つきみ – Tsukimi
You might have heard of the Harvest Moon before. And no, I'm not talking about the Nintendo game. I mean the REAL Harvest Moon. Now, in RL, the harvest moon is all big and orange in color. It's pretty cool. So when I heard that an event in Japan was happening called つきみ, or Tsukimi …
