Look, I don’t know your specific schedule. I’m not your mom. But I am your friendly internet wisdom-dispenser. So here’s the short version.
Plan for nothing to be open. Then, be pleasantly surprised when it is. Keep snacks in your bag. Keep a little patience in your heart. Everyone is tired.
And if you find that one magical café that’s open at 8 AM with fresh croissants? Become a regular. That place deserves your loyalty. It’s the sanctuary of the hungover and the hopeful.
Now, go set an alarm. Or don’t. It’s New Year’s Day. You do you. But check the hours first, you savvier, sleepier friend.
