What should I do for tonight? Please answer as soon as you see this question - I'm in a dilemma! Thanks?

I've got a test for Japanese tomorrow... at 9am! The thing is, I've got a party I said yes to on Facebok ages ago, but I don't know if I'll be up for it.





It's from 9 tonight till 2.. I was thinking (if I was going) of only staying for a couple of hours, but I'm also worried about drinking alcohol (I'm technically not meant to start drinking till the 22nd due to a self-imposed diet, but a friend came over for the weekend and so I've been drinking due to pressure, I guess).





So, should I cancel going to the party or not?!


The thing is, I'd feel really rude suddenly saying 'no, I can't' when I've said I would for ages.

Seriously? You should cancel going to the party. If it was the kind of party that called for correct manners and proper etiquette, it wouldn't start at 9 pm and go until 2 am... nor would you have responded to an invite on facebook. Since you are trying to be courteous, I would just tell the person that you have a really hard test in the morning and you really need to be prepared for it. If that person doesn't understand that your schoolwork sometimes has to be bumped in front of your social life, then he/she is the one with the problem.
Reply:I'm not your mom so I can't tell you whether or not you should go or stay home and study. I can ask you to think hard about this party and ask you self the following questions:





1. will I really leave the party after a couple of hours


2. will I drink to much to study when I get home


3. will the lack of sleep prevent me from doing my best on tomorrows test


4. do I want to be responsible or irresponsible


5. what would my mom tell me to do





Good luck and I hope you make the right choice
Reply:It's a facebook party? So like one of those mass invite deals? If that's the case I don't think it'll be a big deal if you don't go. Depends on how important for your grade this test is. I would say go for a little to make an appearance but it seems you already have peer-pressure issues and may end up staying and drinking out of guilt. If that's the case don't take the chance of being hung over or not waking up for your test! Good luck, hope this helps!
Reply:The only suggestion that I can give you : Iss that when you get home from the party is to start studying hard and also do some studying before the party.
Reply:Don't feel rude. Your "friends" will understand if they're really your friends. Just tell them that you have a big test early tomorrow and must be prepared.





If you go to the party you'll be so tired and won't be able to concentrate on your test. If you drink then you probably won't even make it.





Do what's right :)
Reply:You already know the answer...don't go to the party. Don't let anyone pressure you into drinking, especially when you're on a diet. Who cares about what your friends will think if you don't show up? They'll get all drunk and will be getting sick tomorrow morning while you're acing your test!!! Don't worry about rude, or anything else....if anyone asks, you've got a very important test, and you simply changed your mind. You are allowed to do that. This test, and good grades, are way more important than being out partying, and besides, they'll be other parties. Good luck!!
Reply:one thing is for certain, preparing for a test if it is going to be difficult for you, is not best served to begin at 2am when you have to sleep and also get back up at 9am. thats leaving the drinking issue completely out of it.





the 2nd part of it, the facebook party is free right? the cost of failing a test could be pretty high....
Reply:Geez, you need to think for yourself!! And you owe it to yourself to stick to your commitments. You said you weren't supposed to drink, so don't! Who cares if your friend is being pushy.





Are you prepared for your exam? If yes, and you feel confident, go to the party for a couple hours (9-11), then go home and get sleep for your exam. If you aren't prepared, then you need to decline and say " I'm sorry but I have an important exam in the morning and I can't make it." Your real friends will understand, or you'll have to make it up to them another time. School is a priority over partying.
