Two weeks ago, I and my family were in my grandpa’s hometown. it is
our annual agenda every holiday in the end of Semester.
Unfortunately, it was rainy season there.

it rained almost every day there. We had no enough time to visit some
tourism places there because of the rain. We had no enough sunlight
even to dry up our laundries. As a result, we just stayed at home
almost all day long. Seeing the condition, we decided to make an
interesting activity indoor to spend the holiday together. The activity we
chose that day was making funny videos directed by me. Finishing the
videos, we edited them and made them uploaded in youtube.

By doing this, we could kill our boredom of staying at home because of

the rain and made a creative activity instead.
