haha you've got plenty of time! better start reading on how to at least start building your app. i would focus on one aspect of it at a go. (i would start with trying to display the current time on screen)

however, im just as new to Android development. so i dont quite know exactly what I'm doing either

Check out app inventor. Also might want to hit up the library to borrow some books on Java programming and Android development.

Ha! Or you could hire a freelancer to do it for you, as a last resort.

Start with simple Activity with TextView, which change the text value every second.

I am sure there is a built in clock/calender method that you would be able to call up to display. (Sorry I don't actually know what it is, it's just an alternative idea i had lol)
