Just a heads up: linguistics isn't about learning a lot of languages. If you are mainly interested in learning languages and want to teach or translate or something, you are probably better off majoring in a couple of the languages you like, and maybe taking some 2nd language acquisition courses in the linguistics department when you have spare time.

You do realize that your lifespan is limited as well, right?
