Dilemma

Man U is playing Arsenal on 1 Dec in the Carling Cup at Manchester.

18-22 Nov, I'll be in Paris.
4-7 Dec, I'll potentially be in Germany.
8 Dec, 2 friends arrive in London.
11 Dec, Mum will arrive.

In the midst of all this, I need to write 5 essays of varying lengths with one being a stupid practical which I can't seem to grasp.

Should I take the chance and go for the match, potentially giving up 2 days of possible work? Should I give up Germany for this - giving up the chance to have a host bring me around Hiedelberg?

Decisions, decisions. Dilemma.
