Hey Guys,
I am planning to learn chinese for my foreign language credit in college, which would be more beneficial to learn as a business man (I am an international business major). If both though which type should I learn first?

I was trying to write a story in Chinese last week, and for the life of me I can't remember why I wrote suoyi houlai.
So I was writing:
Ta hen nanguo, suoyi houlai le mai yizhi houzi.
Which should translate to: "she was very sad, so she bought (1 animal) monkey.
but I still don't remember why I wrote suoyi houlai..what doe it mean?

I've recently begun studying Chinese independently.
My school doesn't offer Chinese classes, so I've been using the vast stockpile of free internet resources.
Quizlet for studying and learning the pronounciation (Quizlet's speak function can handle 汉字 and I check the pinyin tones on each word I put on a list with tiktionary to make sure I'm learning it right.
Some .pdf files I've found for practicing written Chinese that have practice squares and stroke order guides.
ETC...
I think I'm studying well, but I get tripped up on a few things regarding verb usage...
When forming sentences with verbs that have multiple ways to be written, which do you use?
For Example:
The sentence, "I Study Chemistry," could be written either,
"我学化学," or, "我学习化学。"
Both mean essentially the same thing, only difference is that the verb is more specific in the expanded sentence.
Does this make the statement more formal and if so, would informal spoken Chinese take preference to the contracted form?
Is there is a specific time/situation where one is preferred?
I need an answer to this as soon I can find one, because this seems to happen with just about every verb I've learned so far, with the exception of a few like 是.
Like the verb for to know/to understand/to recognize, would you use, "认, 识, or 认识?"
“我认化学,"
"我识化学,"
or,
"我认识化学?"
Please Help!
Thanks in Advance!
