Don't Drop the Ball this New Year!

Happy New Year's from Ohio State Student Health Services!

We know many of you probably have big plans for Friday night, and those plans probably include alcohol.  While it's fun to ring in the New Year with a toast or 2, things can get a little dangerous when you overdo it with the booze, especially when you don't normally drink a lot.

A lot of emphasis is put on the dangers of drinking and driving on New Year's Eve - which is obviously extremely important - but getting drunk can lead to other kinds of accidents too.  Like having unplanned sex with inadaquate protection, or leaving drunk voice-mails on your ex-boyfriend's phone, or posting photos on your Facebook page that you really DON"T want your boss/professor to see tomorrow. 

But don't take it from me, take it from the ultimate authority - Grandma!  On New Year's Eve, don't drunk-text your grandma, have a designated driver you can trust, log off of Facebook and back up your birth control!

Student Health Services wishes you a safe and happy 2010!!
