Don't skip the first day because thats when you get the syllabus. Don't leave your education solely to the university. Don't learn any European languages, they all speak English in Europe, I'd trade my German degree for a Chinese / Japanese degree any day of the week.

Spanish isn't a bad one to know if you live in the US. I decided to switch to Spanish while on a trip to Germany during college :)
