Update:
Day 6 of continuously talking to Sable. Boredom continues as I try to accomplish my goal of getting the QR Paths...
I opened the Flower Shop in Main Street
Finished my first Community Works Project (or w/e its called), The Fountain
Naughty or Nice Day is Tomorrow (and no one cares)
I payed the 98k mortgage for my house
I have access to the island
I am regretting my layout, but cannot be bothered restarting
Still ignoring Apollo
I have gotten about half the fossils for the museum, as well as about 1/3 of both fish and bugs.
So, yeah... Grinding for cash (whale sharks and birdwing butterflies for EVERYONE /joke), waiting for days on end, and regrets. Whooo!
(Just kidding, I LOVE <3 THIS GAME)
