5] Nook's Part Time Job.
========================================================================
 
You will now be in the town where you will be greeted by Pelly,  
(or Phyllis, depending on what time of day it is.) Where she will ask 
what  
she can do for you, you can reply: 

-I moved in! 
-I came in by cab! 

I dont know what difference it makes on what you choose, but i think 
Pelly 
just says something different with each option. Afterwards Pelly will 
pull 
up a map of  your Town, and will mark where your house is. Pelly will 
then 
ask you if you know  how to use your map, you can reply "What?", if you 
dont 
know how,or "Yup." if you want to skip the mini-tutorial. 

To pull out your map, tap the green arrow icon in the top right, and 
then 
tap  the green house icon, or you can do the faster way, which is just 
pressing X.  
  
Find your house and walk in. it should be pretty empty right now. 
To your right, go up the stairs. There will be a bed and a phone. 
The bed is for saving, (Just lay down on it) and the phone has certain 
settings. Go back outside, and you will be greeted by Tom nook, your 
towns 
shop owner. He will tell you about your houses debt, and that you need 
to 
go 
work part time at his shop.So, head over to his shop. 

Nooks part time job simplified: 

-Change into the chothes he gives you. 
( Y, drag and drop on your character.) 
 
-Plant all of the Tree's and flowers he gives you. 
(It does'nt need to be around his shop, it can be anywhere) 
 
- Talk to everyone in the village. 
(This means everyone! The mayor will be in front of the town hall, and 
make 
sure to keep talking to everyone until they ask you about their 
Birthday, 
only then, will Tom Nook allow you to move onto the next job.) 
 
-You will now deliver Furniture to a resident in town. 
(simple enough, you will get a random piece of furniture from the 
resident 
after you give them the delivery, and a brief explanation on furniture.) 

-You have to send a ketter to a selected resident in town. 
(Tom nook will provide the stationery, you can write anything, just make 
sure its to the right animal. Afterwards, Go to the town hall and mail 
it.) 

-You will now deliver a carpet. 
(simple enough, you will get a random carpet from the resident after 
you give them the delivery, and a brief explanation on carpets) 
 
-Deliver a watering can to the animal whom you mailed the letter to 
earlier. 
(You don't get anything for this one, except a brief explanation on 
letters.) 

-You will now be obliged to post a advertisment on the bulletin board 
outside of the town hall.  
(Does'nt matter what you write, As long as you write 
something.) 

After You complete your job, Nook will deduct 1,400 bells from your
