I chose C as i want to move into developing for Linux (kernel etc) i know that's a long way away and expect to be doing that anytime soon but this is mostly written in C and ASM (correct me if I'm wrong) and since I didn't want to start with ASM I'm starting with C first to get a solid background.
What's wrong with C anyway lol so far I'm really enjoying it

You have a long way to go though, at least 2-3 years, if not more.

On the other hand, higher level languages are easier to learn, especially if that is your first language.
I'm just checking that you're using the right tool for the job.
In case you're planning on working in the kernel, then knock yourself out. You will need C and ASM and know low level stuff and hand optimize things.
But consider that if you're ever going to move outside the kernel to, say, desktop apps, then you might want to invest in another higher level language.
