Ok i got it back from the shop, they said it was an internal leak in the hydraulics that made it so there wasnt enough pressure when i pushed on the clutch to put it into gear. This made the car think the clutch wasnt pushed in at all and thus wouldnt let me push it into first, the reason it got easier in later gears is because when i got going faster i built up pressure in the hydraulics so i could change gears easily. The whole fix is gonna put me back about $700.
