If you're bored on Minecraft, one thing you can do is build a zoo. It is possible to make a zoo in Survival Mode, but it's much easier in Creative Mode.
Steps

Part 2 of 3:
Building The Zoo
-
1Build the base. A suggestion to do would be creating a 10 block by 10 block square for each mob's pen. Avoid counting any wall space.
- After all the pens are done, you could put little stands next to each pen, with Squidward or villagers.
-
2Decorate the inside of each enclosure. For cows, you could put a plains area with a tree or two and some tall grass and flowers. For zombies/skeletons, you could make a cave and have water outside so they don't burn.
-
3Build the walls. You can make them out of any material, but it's preferably at least one row of glass. For hostile mobs, you must make a roof or covered area inside.
-
4Make your pathways. You can make them out of any material, such as sand or cobblestone, for example.
