I think something may be wrong with my clutch...any 6 speeders opinions please

I dont know, i think theres somethign wrong with my clutch or something. When ever i depress the clutch all the way, the rpms will drop, but then bump back up like 500 rpm, then go back down. Also, right after it engages and i go into gear, there is like a shutter or vibration coming from the clutch peddle. Its been doing this maby the last 5 times i have driven it (about 2 months), and it seems to be geting worse as it goes on. Also when i start it up the rpms rest at like 1200rpm, not down around 200 or whatever where it should be. I made an appointment to bring it in on mon. to have those things looked at along with having the e brake tightened cause i need to pull it up litterly the whole way to stop the car and have the moonroof rattle fixed. Anyone have any idea why it would vibrate like this?

Yes i saw both of these, and i was kinda worried about this and then these made me even more worried...

The good thing is the tech that my family takes our cars at at the local dealer is a family freind, so he wont bs me he will definitly tell me if its some sort of major problem.

Mine does this too..i took my to the dealer months ago. He said it may be an emissions thing. But if i wanted it replaced.. there was nothing new to replace it with. He just told me when a clutch came out for the car, get that and they would put it in for me free of charge.

I got about 7900 miles...

The weird thing is it never did this before, either the weird vibrations from the clutch or the weird thing with the rpm's...i guess ill just have to wait untill mon to find out if its anything serious.
