Speaking English...in your sleep!
One of my students told me this week that she woke up to her husband laughing at her. "Why?" I asked. Because, she told me, she had been talking in her sleep in English, saying things like "How are you?" and "What's your name?" I think this woman is a natural language learner! Either that, or I've been giving her too much homework.

That's cute. When Jenny's first husband, Poul, came over here from Denmark, he already knew English, but he said that when he began to dream in English he knew he was becoming a true English speaker.
Ryan admitted that he woke up with "Rocky Top" stuck in his head the other morning. This must mean that I'm converting him to a true Volunteer! GO VOLS!!
rocky top? oh chrissy. oh ryan.
I keep dreaming about getting elaborate body/facial piercings. It just goes to show that Im becoming a True Punk :)
I have had stress dreams ABOUT Russian and German, but I have never really dreamt in them.
I used to dream in Polish, but it was exactly like I was awake: I was in some situation where I needed to use Polish, plotted out the entire conversation in my head, and then delivered my "lines" haltingly.
