BR 2-18: Twelve Things to Do at Age 12

I read a book about the 13th birthday of a boy whose name is Diego. He has a 20-year-old brother, Paco. Diego makes a list to do in a year on his birthday. Things to do in a year and his age is same. Here is his 12th list.

1. Go biking two days a week. ✔
2. Go camping with Paco. ✔
3. Eat healthy snacks. ✔
4. Do extra science homework. ✔
5. Study with my friends every weekend. ✔
6. Read 10 books. ✔
7. Play tennis every Friday. ✔
8. Make a surprise breakfast for Mom and Dad. ✔
9. Learn to cook. ✔
10. Visit Grandma every week. ✔
11. Collect trash on the beach. ✔
12. Help someone not my family.

Look at this list. He has not done the last one yet. Paco asked Diego to eat ice cream. It was a day before Diego's 13th birthday. However he refused because he had to do the last mission. Finally, he helped two girls and the last mission was completed. He was so happy.

I will try to make a list.
