Ну, здравствуй всем! Как обычно, я думала о блоге когда я должна думать о работе. И тоже как обычно, я не могла больше работать перед тем, как я писала что-то.
I've decided, for the time being, to write this blog even though I'm stateside and the original purpose of this was for a sort of abroad-journal type thing. As you can tell by the start of this post, and the title, since I'm not abroad, I had to write about something else. J'ai realisé recently that my thoughts tend to be kind of scrambled between the three languages that I know best, и так, я хотела вам показать немножко как это жить в моем голове. My apologies to those of you who do not speak all three of these languages, but it can't be helped.
Честно говоря, я гуляю или хожу по кампусе и я всегда switch back and forth between Russian, English, and occasionally French. And I don't mean like a word here and there. Full phrases, sentences, trains of thought develop in both languages. Where my knowledge of Russian fails, I insert French or English. When English doesn't fit my mood for one reason or another, I think in Russian.
It's kind of cool, until I realize that thinking so often in Russian is now affecting my ability to form a coherent paper in English. Or that might just be the lack of sleep. Не важно.
