Believe me, Spanish can be very, very informal, and usually is. And English can be very, very formal.

I bet that book you've been reading is very informal. - djnotsophat, Dec 12, 2010
Actually, it's not as informal as you might expect. It's just regular language, though it does use a lot of Peruvianisms in the beginning. Now they're in Paris in the 1960's. Great book. - KevinB, Dec 12, 2010

I think you're assuming that because you've only been LEARNING formal Spanish. There's a formal and informal side to every language.
