Thinking in Spanish

So after I posted last time, I was on my way back to my site and I noticed something interesting happening. I was thinking in Spanish! It is so weird this transition from thinking in English to Spanish. I never really believed that it would happen, despite what people had told me, but alas it has. I don't think in Spanish all the time, but I have been noticing myself doing it more frequently lately. I most often realize that it is happening at night when I'm falling asleep. You know that time of day when you're going over things in your head about what happened during the day, what you have to do tomorrow, and things like that. It's still the strangest thing to me that I'm now doing that stuff in Spanish. I've even had a few dreams in Spanish. Nothing super vivid yet, and I'm pretty sure that every time I've spoken Spanish in my dreams, it has been with people who also know Spanish. Although, supposedly the time will come when all my dreams are in Spanish and people who don't even know it are speaking it as well. Weird.

When I was on the internet last time I downloaded California Dreamin' by the Mamas and the Papas. I don't know what made me think of it, but I went to play it on my computer the other day and I didn't have it. I thought for sure I had it, but I didn't. So that's what I'm listening to now. I think it's something about that pan flute solo in the middle of the song. Too bad it's less than 3 minutes long.

  1. Oh Kevin, that is awesome! I wish I think in Spanish like you! I can't wait to get to that point! Hopefully, we can talk to each other in Spanish soon! Why am I using so many exclamation points??!!!

  2. It would be really funny if I had a dream where I spoke Spanish.
