Opp. #4 - Learn Japanese (Spoken and Written)

When I was in High School we only had a choice of Spanish and French.  Now, while I enjoyed learning French...it didn't interest me as much as the prospect of learning Japanese.  I've always loved the history and the culture of Japan and find the language fascinating.  Some consider Japanese to be extremely difficult to learn (particularly written)...but I like a challenge.

My to-do list:

1) Look into learning software (Rosetta stone perhaps?).
2) Look into classes.
