what is happening to my car!?!?!?!?!?

everything is going to hell! first transmission went out, got a new trans, it went out, getting original rebuilt now. Then it pours white smoke under cold starts, I just found a motor with 1k miles so I bought it to install when my tranny is done. Now I need my car to hold out for about two weeks, and what happens? My clutch is loosing hydrolic pressure. First time it works great, then the more I use it, it gets softer and softer until it does not engage at all. What is this? any ideas? Please tell me this is some simple leak that I can easily fix in the morning.

do you drive your car real hard?

do you power shift, that can often lead to the clutch becoming soft and eaten away at.
