How are you adjusting with the ‘new normal’ life? Are you aware of the calendar dates? If not, we hope you at least know now, as we entered a new month! The coronavirus pandemic has taken a significant toll on us. But we are coping with it, maturely. Besides, a big thank you to social media, who never fail to keep users captivated. With so many restrictions, we are spending more time on our phones, than ever. During the time, it is good to see people positively using the internet by sharing funny as well as informative content. This diverts the attention from the pandemic, at least for a while, which is much needed. As we arrived at the weekend, the past few days have given us a number of videos to entertain ourselves. But for viral videos of the week, we select the top seven, which garnered many views and even sparked discussions online. From TikTok Pee Your Pants Challenge to bioluminescent sighting off California coast, watch seven videos that created waves on social media.
