24 HOURS remain! What are YOU doing to pass the time?

I decided to redo more of my island to pass the time. Trying to figure out how to make a nice looking tree house for Wade and Cube to share.
 
I'm excited, and not going to let myself try to rush through all the content as I tend to do....
 
I left the game for almost a year so I'm filling this time with bugs and fish for my museum! I've been after the Char for so long...
 
I suppose, in a way? I'm more excited than anything, though. But I would be lying if I said I wasn't even just a little bit nervous. You know, worried that the update isn't going to be as 'amazing' as we hoped and ends up being a let down, etc.

I doubt it will, but those thoughts are there. And there really intrusive. Frick anxiety disorders.
 
Yeah because I need to raise my grades to As and Bs if I want to play it when it comes out.
That sounds like great motivation if I've ever heard it. It's all about putting in the time and it'll be worth it.
 
Honestly, yes. I'm so excited to get back into AC with renewed fervor, but simultaneously I know the amount of possibilities this game has and how my perfectionism copes with that had me burned out so quickly last time I played (after launch). I didn't even think I would want to go back to ACNH if I'm honest, but I'm so excited to play every day again now but I'm nervous I will take it too seriously again. With so many new things to do, there is also so much more to be perfectionist about. And last time there was a lockdown here as well, so now without that I will have to manage my time even better.
 
I’m only excited. I have a few series 5 cards that will arrive via online order so not nervous about getting all of those. I’m just hoping to get one or 2 that I want. I’m very excited to scan villagers in at The Roost. I have a very full binder of amiibo cards to use 😊
 
I’m a little worried that something will be added or changed in the game that will ruin it. it happened with the sims 4 where some updates ruined the game for me and I can no longer play, so I really don’t want it to happen again with this game. Otherwise I’m super excited.

I'm excited! Wouldn't say nervous... more anxiously waiting. I'm sad they discontinued Dr Mario World which I had been playing daily, so can't wait for this update/dlc. I'm not too concerned about doing everything at once or in any particular order.
 
I'm definitely excited and more impatient in terms of I can't wait to hear what my friends think and what they find. It's gonna be a whirlwind of excitement. I will say I am nervous for how the forum will react and if everything will be on fire on the day of (but in a good way hopefully!)
 
I took down the area near Cole’s house to make a little farm. I also ended up moving him somewhere else. After all that, I still don’t have a farm. I don’t know what happened there. Now Cole has no place, and I still don’t have a farm.
 
I'm nervous that it's not the 5th yet 👀🤣 This update is literally getting me through the work week since Thurs/Fri are my days off!!!

i'm holding a villager hostage and attending school so i have to tt to certain points of the day so he doesn't leave, because i want him to leave when the update drops so i can descend on the islands! it's stressful but getting me thru the week somehow
 
Definitely getting antsy. I’m going to try not to literally blow out my arms this time, which means pacing myself with the new material, but it will be difficult to decide what to do first even just focusing on the stuff that will be available straight away. (I suspect/bet there’ll be another Blathers dialogue + wait a day before Brewster moves in, but the DLC will probably be available if you have it right off the bat and I wouldn’t be shocked if Photopia is, as well. Plus all those Nook Miles upgrades.)

I got Leif today, so I at least know I’ll be waiting a bit for new vegetables. Does kind of remove the pressure there.

* Hotly anticipated new game + getting commissioned to crochet a LOT of deceptively simple bunnies in a short time frame for Easter + wanting to work on my own projects + lockdown so suddenly all my standard routines that took me out of the house and not crocheting or playing video games were gone = tendonitis I’m still managing, almost a year after finishing physical therapy. 0/10. Do not recommend. I like crocheting and miss not being afraid of it.
 
Mostly hanging out in the Basement, posting memes and wasting time.

Also tidying up my island a bit.
 
Random little tidbit I felt like posting! If the update releases on Nov 4th, 9PM EST...

There are only 1 day, 20 hours and 56 minutes remaining at the time of this post!
 
I swear, this is just like the New Year's Eve. 🙃 Thankfully, I'll be busy at work these next few days, so I won't be thinking about it and therefore losing my sanity patience over it too much!
