English language in my every-day life

Whether we are aware of it or not, the English language affects us a lot. At least it affects me a lot. Every day I listen to music with English lyrics, I watch TV series where they speak English and often I read English texts too. I’m often using English words and expressions in my colloquial. This is partially because of the fact that the Norwegian language has borrowed several words from the English language and partially because English words make my language a bit more resilient. Additionally, when I am chatting with somebody on for instance Facebook, I use a lot of English abbreviations, such as BRB (be right back), OMG (Oh my God) etc.
