Lemme see, starting *and* finishing a project in a language you've never practically used before within a day's time? Sounds like a clip from next season's opener of the TV show '24' to me.
I came from using Ruby about a year or so and even then it took a couple of days of browsing through the Python docs and playing around until I could consider myself somewhat useful. Coming from Java and C# might make the departure a little steeper. Good luck!
