two brains?

I have two thinking processes. One is when I’m using my Japanese brain, and the other is when I’m using my English brain. Well, sort of....



I mean I am me, and my core is what it is, but which language I use does affect the way I think and act little bit. I’m pretty assertive both ways, but when I’m on my English brain, I’m very yes/no, black/white type of person whereas I can live with more gray areas with my Japanese brain. It’s kinda funny, but I use these language separately, which I guess doesn’t make me bilingual in a true sense. I think true bilingual person would be the one who can think and use both languages interchangeably at their own will.



English is still very much my second language. I don’t think I’ll ever get to the point where I’m as comfortable with English as I am with Japanese, but you know, I’m pretty comfortable with English. I know I lack vocabulary, but I can get by most day-to-day life OK. I can have deep discussion about personal life, love life, and career.That’s got to count for something, right?



There’s a new dream of mine, which I’m not ready to share with everyone else, but it involves perfecting my English more and learn as much as I can.



Life is a journey.There are always tons of things to learn. Life is great. Say it. Tell that to myself even on the days I don’t believe it. Thinking is believing! (Usually, you say seeing is believing, by the way.)
