Five Things to Do Before You Are 18
Are you bored with your daily routine? Here are some things you should try before you are 18, because after that it’s too late.
Write your family tree
When you are young, get to know all the older people in your family and find out as much as you can about when they were young. Draw a family tree and make notes about each person so that you won’t forget.
Learn to swim
Seriously, this is so important that it could save your life. If you can’t swim well, you won’t be able to do water sports like waterskiing, surfing and diving. Even taking a boat trip will be dangerous for you. Make sure you do it.
Try at least one kind of team sport
Being a good team player is an important skill in life. You can’t just think of yourself, but have to work well with other people. Other advantages of team sports like basketball, football and baseball are that they keep you fit and healthy, and they are also great fun. Teams usually have a good social life too---you’ll go to lots of parties and make many friends.
Collect something
One of the best hobbies for under-18s is collecting things. You could collect rare Chinese stamps, or you could collect things that make you remember what you have done, like cinema tickets for films you have seen or emails from friends. The best way to collect is to have a special album to put your collection in and to write what each thing means to you. That way you won’t forget.
Camp out in the garden
If you don’t have your own garden, find a friend who has one! You will need: two or three friends, a small tent, sleeping bags and warm blankets. Take a lot of food and drink with you into the tent and play games until it gets dark. When it gets dark, tell ghost stories, and at midnight, eat all your sweets. You will need a torch or else you won’t be able to see all your sweets, and it might get too scary.

We had to make a quick decision as it was raining heavily. Chris said we could set up a tent(帐篷) to hide in, so Mary and Tom helped to set up it . Chris and I tried to make a fire to keep up warm. But we couldn’t as everything was wet. We dried ourselves and waited inside the tent. At about five o’clock , it stopped raining. We decided to give up the camping trip because all of us were tired.
This camping trip may not be successful but we know each other better. And the most important thing I’ve learned from this trip is the importance of team spirit(精神).
