Today, I had a mini heart attack when I ran around a corner and tripped, landing right in my prized Blue Pansies.. Leaves flew everywhere but luckily, the flower survived. And so did I.
Whew.

Has anyone had any moments like this? :D
 
I feel like this everytime I get too excited and try catching a bug that's jumped/flown away and end up running after it... right through my precious flowers. D:
 
ahhhhhh yes so many times I've been running and nearly ran through lovely hybrids D: it's a scary moment my heart jumps a little haha
 
Oh my goodness. I didn't play all day today because I was working all morning and I went out with friends. When I clicked to open New Leaf it said that it couldn't open my saved data and wouldn't continue on. I died a little inside. Shut off my 3ds. Got sad. When I finally got the courage to open it up all ready to start a new town....... and my town's data loaded c':
 
Yesterday when I was living off four hours of sleep, I started playing the game at around ten thirty PM. I started rushing around to get everything I wanted to do done. While I was my local T&T, I came across a paper tiger that I had been wanting forever and quickly bought it. Then I ran back over to my house to grab some stuff and rushed over to the Re-Tail and sold everything in my inventory.
I spent all day today worrying about whether or not I had accidentally sold my paper tiger, but was so relieved to find out I had remembered to put it in my wardrobe. It's silly, I know, considering I could have bought a second one if I needed to, but I just didn't want to wait anymore. It's one of my favorite items in the game.
 
i killed my only blue pansy from running; i was running and yawning so i couldn't really see, and BAM petals everywhere and pansy gone D:
i have come to the conclusion that running + yawning is dangerous

NEVER RUN AND YAWN KIDS

Every time I TT and hope Isabell doesn't say a villager is moving. I lost one villager to TT'ing and ever since then I'm super cautious while TT'ing. *^*
 
This thoroughly creeped me out. I really thought that Fauna, Rowan, and Coach would linger after the celebration like the villagers typically do regardless of what time it was. But with the exception of Velma, I was left pretty much alone after an active celebration. I've attended a celebration where it was just Isabelle and me, but that didn't weird me out as much as seeing 3/4 villagers (not including Isabelle) disappear after a celebration all because the clock struck midnight in the middle of it...
 
My game messes up or I'm guessing it's a glitch. When I run around the game messes up like a TV messes up. It does that when I'm on the island and I'm scared it's gonna freeze and my file will corrupt or something.
 
When I was TT'ing to get back to the current date, Marshal was sick and when he was out 'n about, he pinged me telling me he was moving and omg, the moving date was tomorrow and I had a mini heart attack if I TT'd without seeing it.
 
Life got in the way, and I hadn't played AC for a almost a week. All my hybrids were outside, no Beautiful ordinance, and nothing to prevent my favorite villagers from moving while I wasn't there. I intended to do a little time travel to stop anything bad from happening, but got distracted and ended up loading without changing the date.
I was absolutely terrified when I realized what I had done, and instantly turned the game off out of reflex. Then I remembered that once you load the town with an existing character, it's too late to time travel the damage away anyway.
(Thankfully, the damage was actually pretty minor. Nothing like the time I left City Folk for a few days and came back to discover my best flowers were dead and a villager had moved.)
 
One time when I was coming back from a town, my 3DS started flashing red in the middle of saving... and it died. I went absolutely crazy, it was just scary. Luckily, it didn't ruin my game :3 (But I got a scarring from Resetti >.<)
 
The first time I saw a tarantula I nearly had a heart attack. Needless to say it attacked me xD
 
^ A scorpion jumped out of a flower and got me that way on my first day. I thought it had killed my little guy for a second! I was all "NOBODY TOLD ME YOU COULD DIE IN ANIMAL CROSSING!"
 
My heart always jumps a little if I accidentally tap the wrong milk/sugar option while working at the cafe. I'm a bit obsessed with getting each order perfect every time, so luckily my accidental taps have so far been light enough that they've only highlighted the option and not actually chosen it.

I had a pretty scary moment yesterday when my 3DS slipped out of my hands and fell on my kitchen's stone tile flooring. There was a loud crunch and what sounded like a plastic piece coming loose, but after a frantic examination there was no damage and AC was still running. It's not the first time I've dropped it and so far the XL has proven to be one tough bugger of a handheld but it still makes my stomach drop. :'D
 
Just had a minor scare when I noticed a scorpion tail roaming around in my lillies about one tile away from my character. Luckily it didn't notice me though, I didn't have my net.
