HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! <\/p>\n

Oops, sorry, too loud?<\/p>\n

*whispers* happy new year everyone<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It might be a new year and a new day but if you had a big one last night you\u2019re still stuck in the past. <\/p>\n

There’s nothing like a sore head and waking up next to someone you to recognise let alone remember to ruin your #NewYearNewMe positive vibes. <\/p>\n

But we\u2019ve taken one for the team and rallied, making a list of all the things you\u2019ll need to get you through the first day of 2019.<\/p>\n

1. Fresh clean sheets<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the spirit of getting organised before life gets messy, we have a tip that will change your life: wash. your. sheets. <\/p>\n

Hopefully you already do this BUT making a conscious effort to wash your sheets the day before New Years Eve (as in December 30) is a game changer. <\/p>\n

Your tired dead-to-the-world drunk self (and anyone you might drag home with you) will be thanking you very much. <\/p>\n

Nothing like collapsing into fresh linen to help you get a good nights sleep. <\/p>\n

If only we could promise it would also help with your headache. <\/p>\n

2. Curtains <\/strong><\/p>\n

Bright lights will do no favours for that piercing headache. <\/p>\n

Become a hermit for a day. <\/p>\n

Or go back to being a hermit after your only night out for the year.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

3. A quiet space <\/strong><\/p>\n

Refer to above. <\/p>\n

4. Air con\/a floor fan <\/strong><\/p>\n

Australia is hot and stinky and humid and just generally gross in summer and you don\u2019t need to feel worse about yourself. <\/p>\n

So find your cool dark quiet space and don\u2019t move all day. <\/p>\n

Thank us later. <\/p>\n

4. Money in your account for Uber Eats <\/strong><\/p>\n

We don\u2019t have the #bothered level to cook food for ourselves on a good day, so if you think we\u2019ll be cooking when severely hungover you\u2019ve got another thing coming. <\/p>\n

Remember to put a few extra bucks aside to make sure you stay fed after New Years. <\/p>\n

A starving stomach won\u2019t help you OR your hangover.

\n\t\"\"<\/p>\n\n

5. Carb-based foods <\/strong><\/p>\n

Just because you have money for food doesn\u2019t mean you should spend it recklessly. <\/p>\n

Your heart might be yearning for those greasy Maccas fries but listen to your head which is almost definitely telling you \u201cNO.\u201d<\/p>\n

Well, it\u2019s probably pounding and too wrecked to form a full sentence but trust us on this one, sticking to carbs is the best thing for you.<\/p>\n

Anything else and things will get pretty bad pretty quickly. <\/p>\n

6. Eucalyptus oil <\/strong><\/p>\n

A weird one but a goodie. <\/p>\n

The smell of the eucalyptus will help you with any nausea. <\/p>\n

Another option (which requires less $$$) is a fresh lemon: just scratch and sniff the skin and you got yourself a homemade vom-stopper. <\/p>\n

7. Listorine <\/strong><\/p>\n

Because alcohol-induced bad breath which lasts all day no matter what else you eat or drink is not any fun. <\/p>\n

8. Gatorade <\/strong><\/p>\n

Stay hydrated, friends! <\/p>\n

Water works too. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Get organised and make that trip down to the shops to stock up on supplies before the armageddon. <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re reading this and New Years has come and gone, then we are so very sorry. <\/p>\n

We\u2019ll see you on the other side. <\/p>\n

Which really means see you on Australia Day\u2026<\/p>\n
