I'm Becoming a Gringo

I was born and raised in Puerto Rico for the first 23 years of my
life. Spanish being the main language and English being something to
be done for school. Don't get me wrong you're exposed to English left,
right and center, even to the extreme that 90% of the text books are
in English even though the classes are in Spanish. Now after being in
the US 12 years the balance has shifted. This was gradual and I only
realized it when picking up Hundred Years of Solitude to read in
English! Ay Dios mio!
