Yeah, you'll be fine. Don't look at it as learning the language as much as learning the OOD concepts and understanding how to implement them. That is far more valuable than the particulars of any language.

Read The Daily WTF for examples of the massive stupidity we run into on a daily basis, due to "programmers" that were little more than vocationally trained to implement certain design patterns in a certain language.

Though, the Java GUI stuff in your next class is probably a lame waste of time IMO.
