You sound like an American who reincarnated in India and then made it back to America!
You wanna hear a true anecdote? When I arrived in Iowa city in September 1960, there was this hit movie called Peyton Place which I had seen in Mumbai theaters 6 months before! I had seen so many American flicks in India, upon arrival in US, I actually felt more at home than in India. I was fluent in English, and people spoke English in all 50 states! Whereas in India, I could not understand a single word of local languages spoken in 50% of India.
