=> Came Late to School

Last Wednesday, I came late to my school because I played playstation until 2.00 am in the night. Because I woke up late.

I woke up about 6.30 am and the class would begin at 7.00 am. I ran to bathroom to take a bath. I usually had breakfast after taking a bath, but on that day I did not do that.

I always went to school by my motorcycle. But on that day, I forgot where I put the key. So, I went to the school by public transportation. It took me a longer time. I arrived at school at 7.15 am, I ran to my class but I saw my teacher had stood in front of the class to teach. I entered my class and of course my teacher was angry at me because I came late.

It was my bad experience and I hoped I would not do that again.

=> My Grandpa's Hometown

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

It rained almost every day there. We didn't have enough time to visit some tourist places there because of the rain. We had not enough sunlight even to dry up our laundry. As a result, we just stayed at home almost all day long.

Seeing the condition, we decided to make an interesting activity indoors 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 uploaded them to youtube.

By doing this, we could kill our boredom of staying at home because of the rain and make a creative activity instead.
