The best way to learn is to give yourself a project. This provides
motivation to learn, and structures your learning, and makes sure you
USE not just read about. It also gives you something to show
potential clients to prove you know what you are doing.

See http://mindprod.com/project/projects.html

for some ideas for a possible project.

You'll need some candles, a piece of chalk and the Book of the Dead.
As far as the ocean thing, maybe a swimsuit!?

Java is one of the easiest languages to learn. About the only really
tricky thing is generics. There is a ton of documentation and online
example code.

When your program fails you get a nice stack trace and message way.

There are gotchas but they are documented. See

Fifteen days should be plenty. Study the Java tutorial, sign-up at the
RentACoder website, and Bob's your uncle. Java freelancer Nirvana.
