It’s a time-honored collegiate tradition – we’re talking about day drinking, natch.
If you have some experience with the subject matter, you know that there’s a right way to do it (endless stories! Fun! Booze and sunshine!) and a wrong way to do it (Week-long hangover. Puke everywhere. Endless shame.) But follow our top ten commandments and you should be good to go.
1. Thou shalt drink water.
And lots of it. Chug three glasses first thing in the morning, set alarms throughout the day so that you order glasses of it periodically and set a full bottle by your bed so that you remember to chug it before passing out – you will thank us for this tip the next day, trust.
2. Thou shalt take pictures early in the day.
Before you reach level 10 (beers) hot mess status.
3. Thou shalt not drive at any point.
Under ANY circumstances. Got it? That’s what Ubers are for.
4. Thou shalt eat.
If you’re one of those people who forgets to eat, (weird) find a way to remind yourself to inhale fried things every few hours. Planning your day in such a way that you’re near a Taco Bell at all times is a really good idea.
5. Thou shalt not use your phone excessively.
Because you WILL drop it at some point. And ain’t nothing cute about a cracked screen.
6) Thou shalt delete your ex’s number before you start.
Because the only thing more embracing than a drunk daily at night is a drunk dial during the day.
7. Thou shalt leave your wallet at home.
You’re just asking to lose it – instead take your ID and enough cash to last you the day. This totally helps you stick to a budget instead of blowing $100 on a round of shots for the entire bar too.
8. Thou shalt not disturb the peace.
Just don’t, k?
9. Thou shalt not argue with a cop.
It’s just not going to end well…
10. Thou shalt not mix liquors.
Limit yourself to one type of booze. Okay, fine. Three.
