New Year Holidays

---

Whether festive mood came on top New Year's or earlier is always better to approach parties with a dose of common sense.

Here are some tips on how to keep good spirits in a long New Year's Eve!

When a few drinks come to more

Many people really only be granted where a degree, but it is also true that things can easily go out of control.

If you drink frequently, be careful if you do not want to wake up with a strong hangover the next morning.

Or even worse: you can get alcohol poisoning and spoil your holiday.

Following tips:

* Do not mix different types of alcohol, whether you've done before and how sure it is safe;
* Consume in parallel with alcohol and water;
* Stop drinking before you even feel the alcohol (surely there will be more and later);
* If you feel dizziness refresh with cool water and come out in the fresh air;
* Drink a glass of water before going to bed.

Never, but NEVER sit behind the wheel after you drink. Now enough people have made this mistake. Organize your party at your house or go to a party where you can stay for the night.

Careful with fireworks home

Every year people should be reminded to be careful with fireworks and pyrotechnic devices. Although today it seems that the kid can handle, they can be very dangerous (even children should not be allowed to them).

Plenty of tips if you did not try to play pyrotechnics.

When using such materials, make sure not around children and pets. Once lit fireworks not touch more, whether visible or not burn.

Away from water

If you decide to spend the holiday in a warm place - the sea, near the pool and others. - Remember that alcohol and swimming do not go at all. Night swimming under the influence of alcohol can quickly turn from fun in an accident.
When really too young ...

Imagine what happens after direct with food and drink ... Such interventions shock on his stomach does not reflect at all well. And nobody wants to meet holiday bent over the toilet.

The opposite is also not good at all - do not put a morsel in your mouth all night. In this situation, and one glass of alcohol will launch under the table ....

Balance - try everything you want, but at moderate levels. And eat slowly. Only then will you feel better when eaten and should stop.

The September baby boom

When inhibitions fall and love is in the air (mixed with alcohol money) ... I'm not bad to become more communicative and will give the feelings. Unplanned sex with a stranger at the party can be very exciting, but unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases, may be even more exciting.

Remember also that man / woman with whom / which you tonight and maybe you want to stay and now probably does not share the same plans and can leave the next day ... with your heart.

Have fun, but smart!
