15 things to do when it's raining outside

MANILA, Philippines - With the intensity of tropical storm Mario, most classes and offices are cancelled. Whether you are a student or a work struck individual, this is the ultimate holiday for you.

For some people, rainy days are the only free days you get to spend personal time with yourself. This is the time when you can actually stay indoors and do all the things you have craved doing in a long time.

Given the hustles and bustles of the city in a normal day, staying indoors has lost its value because almost everyone is out doing their errands from one place to another.

Now that it is cold and wet outside, here is a list of few fun things that you can do at home:

1. Watch movies you’ve been longing to watch.
2. Movies and books will make up your whole day.
3. Play computer games with beer and snacks beside you . It would be the ultimate free day you can ever have.
4. Write a good poem or draw/paint something and feel good about it.
5. Brush up your cooking skills - cook something to warm your cold stomach
6. Catch up on your cleaning. This is the time to remove all the dust on your table and fix your clothes in your closet.
7. Playing cards with your housemates might turn out to be quite entertaining.
8. If you are a health freak, you can do all sorts of indoor exercises like yoga.
9. Play with your pet and teach him new tricks.
10. Have a warm cup of coffee and just stare at the tricking raindrops on your window.
11. Watch a horror movie with your girlfriend and let her cling on to you!
12. Light your whole house with candles and play some feel good music in the background. Nothing gives you good vibes better than a playing melody.
13. Pamper yourself with some home beauty treatments like painting your nails or doing home spa.
14. For the fashionistas out there, a fun way to spend the rainy days indoors is to mix and match your clothes…then organizing your wardrobe in the process.
15. Last but not the least, just relax and do nothing if you feel like it. This is the day when you could just lay down and do absolutely nothing, like a boss.
