For the last couple of days, I've been 'talking' (and here talking also includes thinking) in English more than in Romanian. I even started meditating in English. Not sure if this is good or bad, but for now I just regard it as funny.
Last week after French class, I got halfway through (mentally) solving a math problem in French. I got stuck when I realized I didn't know the French word for "Pigeonhole", and that was also the point at which I'd realized the language I was thinking in.
While I'm walking to school, I often think in French, and occasionally in Greek or sign language (yes, it's possible to think in sign language). Or FoodTongue, for that matter, but that's just for the amusement factor. But I usually realize what language I'm thinking in, and do it on purpose.

That's really interesting for you though, since you are in Romania.
