I had similar experience when I started Perl.
I was used to take a problem of a certain size, sit down and think for a while. Then code C for maybe 3 to 10 days.
When I did a similar problem in Perl, the time to think for a problem of that size was longer than the time to throw a solution at the wall! You could design using code, then refactor/rewrite if it got too bad.

Best of all: So much more fun.
