Need advice on upcoming weekend

    Ok, In 3 weeks time I have a weekend in which two event clash and which I have to sacrifice one of them, but either way I am screwed if I do cancel one of them.

    The first event is a conference with a society in college in which I am on the committee. We've to go to Limerick for the wk'end and the president has asked me to go numerous times, and I have said yes.

    The second event is my friend's 18th birthday bash. She invited me to it last night, and stupidly i said yes. But the thing is I do wanna go, she's a really good friend.

    Either way, I'm going to have to face conflict, but I do not know which one to choose.

    Any advice?

    Go to the college thing, it's more important. If she's a good friend she should understand.

    Have a word with the friend and explain the situation and that you already agreed to the soc
    promise to go out with her another time and make it up to her if you go to the college thing

    Can somebody go instead of you to the college thing? If yes, explain the situation & go to the party. You are probably replaceable at that, but not at your friends party

    Take your friend out on a separate occasion, before her birthday. A meal and a few pints? Tell her now that you'd really like to go to the party but had already promised to go to Limerick.
