I wouldnt be too pissed. Im the same way as your buddy, in regards to studying, work, working out, etc. When I start something "fresh" (new semester, new routine, new job), I will forsake a ton of things to form good habits early on. Dont take it personally....and also, dont be pissed 3 weeks from now when he goes out drinking and slides back into bad grade habits, its just how some people are.

F that. I'm pretty laid back when it comes to birthdays, but I don't think it's too much to ask for this guys friends to take one night off for his 21st birthday. Making sacrifices is what friendship is all about, and I seriously doubt that going to a casino on a Saturday night in the second week of a college semester is really that much of a sacrifice. Work a couple of hours during the week or something.
