Are you bored with your daily routine? Here are some things you should try before you are 18.
Try at least one kind of team sports.
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 football and basketball are that they keep you fit, 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 (收集) something.
One of the best hobbies for under-18s is collecting things. You could collect stamps, or you could collect things that make you remember what you have done, like tickets for films you have seen or letters from your friends. The best way to collect is to have a special album(冊子) 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 (鬼) stories, and at midnight, eat all your food. You will need a
torch or something else, or you won't be able to see all your food, and it might get too scary.
