I am a ESL student. I have just been in US about one year.
Sometime i got stuck when I communicate with me classmates in class. I texted my classmate to invited her go to an event at school with me, but i did not get her meaning from her text.
Can anyone please help me to explain this sentence?
I think going only one day would be plenty
What does she mean? Does she want to go with me or not?
Thanks for helping me and forgiving me with my bad english.

The phrase pattern
means one of something would be the same as having many (plenty) of something
when one has plenty of something, one is left without wanting more
It can have two different meanings that the speaker is saying the one of something is very rich and dense or they could be saying that it bores them and they don't really want that much of it, context is very important to figure out the really meaning. It depends if one is a little or alot.
In your original sentence, she might have used
She is basically saying to you that she only wants to go for one day and by setting her conditions out, if you're willing to abide by them, she wants to go with you.
