Well usually it's D for me because I really love languages.. But each language has different reasoning.
Dutch = C / D / E
German = B / D
With Dutch, I actually started learning it as a joke. I had some Dutch friends in a chatroom I used to frequent, and they would speak to each other in Dutch, so I was like, "I'm going to learn Dutch so I know what you guys are talking about, just in case you're making fun of me!" When I started learning, I found that I actually liked the language. Nowadays I use it to amuse people when I'm in the Netherlands ^_^ (Wins points with my boyfriend's dad.. haha, he thinks it's adorable when I try to speak Dutch)

My dream is to go to Tokyo (japan) Becuase I live in a small village in sweden with a lot of forrests and tokyo I think that Tokyo is totally diffrent from swden and my village. So i want to learn Japanese because I think its nessary to know Japanese to be able to live there.
So its proably a General interst.
