My favourite thing to do in AC:NL is to explore other peoples towns, make new friends, play with friends and make money because SOME people say that all you need in life is friendship, I don't agree, but it IS very, very important, bells are good because when you're rich you can always have a little set up, like a Saturday treat of a public works project, or on your birthday, treat yourself to a great party with your friends, I had a great Christmas on AC:NL when I made a party. And I like to explore other towns because you get to see some totally new things that you might have not seen before, and it may impress you. And playing with friends is a great thing to do to stay in communication, even if you know each other in real life, it's really fun to do island tours and say what's going on when you're not with them.
