Everyone loves a good party. I personally love parties surrounded by friends and having a good time. Some parties, however, are known to sometimes get a little out of hand and can quickly go left. That’s why it’s essential to know some easy safety tips that will help you party safely.   1.Never leave your drink unattended   Let’s be honest. Some people are crazy and like to slip substances into people’s drinks. Some people slip substances into drinks because it’s their idea of fun(crazy, right), and others for unhealthy reasons. That’s why it’s essential to take your drink wherever you go. That way, you know exactly what you’re drinking. Also, allowing people you trust to fix your drink is another way to make sure you’re drinking saftey   2.ALWAYS HAVE A RIDE HOME  Like I said, sometimes parties can go left. It’s essential to make sure you know who your ride is. Also, ride with people who you know will get you home safe. There have been times at parties when I come with someone, and at the end of the night, they are nowhere to be found. That’s why I now make sure to know why transportation and avoid being stranded. 3.Always be aware of your surroundings  When going to a party, I like to make sure I pay attention to everything. For example, locating where the exits are and how we got here, the people around me are things  I pay attention to. Some people may call me paranoid, but I feel it’s good to know your surroundings that you always have some idea of where you are.    Following these simple tips can assure a safe environment while celebrating out with friends. Keeping these steps in mind has made me enjoy my time more and be stress-free. Now that you know these steps, you can enjoy your time more as well.Â
