All I want for Christmas is... my freedom!

All I want for Christmas is... my freedom!
Ok, how do I obtain freedom living in a foreign country with 2 English speaking children, 2 elderly animals and a huge new family that I am living with?
First I should ask the question what is it that I call freedom? Well I think it is the ability to speak my mind and be understood. Funny, I have been chasing my whole life. I see many opportunities in front of me, but I am limited to the computer.
It is also the ability to go anywhere at any time without restriction. I went out to buy a cochina yesterday and came back with 5 pieces of French bread and 4 pineapple. Seriously and why did I buy 4? The guy who pulled me in off the street and sold them to me because he talked so fast I didn’t even know if I could buy 1.
I don’t even need to go further, I know the answer. LEARN THE FUCKING LANGUAGE!!!!!!
