You mention three languages, C++, JavaScript and C#, and there is a suspicion that by JavaScript you mean Java (there is an annoying saying "Java is to JavaScript what Car is Carpet"). C++ is the object orientated language that derives from C, one implementation language of operating systems like Unix (for which it was developed), later DOS implementations and most of Windows. C++ is very flexible and gives you almost total control of the computer, but that control comes at a cost; you are constantly having to explain exactly what you want and how you want it done. JavaScript is a language used in web pages to add a little intelligence, but not much. It would be unusual to learn it in isolation from HTML and CSS, which you don't mention. Java is Sun's attempt at a universal language. A Java program is intended to run on many computers, although you will most likely encounter it as the implementation of games on web sites and mobile phones, as well as indirectly doing the logic behind the scenes on many web sites. One unfortunate thing for you is that Java is a language I would choose to use over C++ because it allows you to focus on the problem your solving, not all the bit twiddling that goes with it. But I don't program in Java, because the language you didn't get on with, C#, is actually significantly better. So given a choice between C++ and Java I would choose Java, and I would recommend you do the same. If the thing you didn't like about C# was the development environment, Java may still do it for you as you'll be using a different one (but again the C# one is better).

Try smalltalk, ADA, or lisp. They might keep you busy.
As far as learning Java in two weeks, if you haven't done a significant amount of programming before, I find that a bit difficult to believe. You may be able to write a fairly app, but doing any serious programming takes a bit more work than that.
