I am quite realistic I have already taught myself most of the finer patterns of each of those languages I named. My problem is only in comprehension and fluency in speaking (I.E. lack of memorized vocabulary, and only a few CDs to practice speaking to). It is the same with musical instruments: easy to learn... but it takes practice, and a often a teacher's guidance, to master.
High school is absorbing years of my life that I simply do not have to waste. There is nothing that I can learn in either those science classes... or history/government/geography classes... that I cannot learn by researching it online. I therefore deem the exercise as absolutely pointless. I am not even going to live in the USA, yet I have to work through 2 'year long' courses devoted to this country and to this state.
My plans are all realistic, Eilon... but without these roadblocks: I could accomplish so much more. I could be taking language classes at a collage right now.

Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
