Writing in_______ is like _____ (2nd version)

When I think about what writing is like in each language I speak I'd say:

Writing in English is like cleaning a house. It's a hard, boring and usually long process. When cleaning it you have to organize a mess. When I write a text in English there are mistakes that I have to correct. Usually, this process takes hours and sometimes it gets boring.

Writing in French is like attending to tedious classes at university. That's the place where I don't want to be. I count each minute while praying God to end that terrible moment. So when I start writing in this language, my only wish is to end the text as fast as I could.

Writing in English and French is not as pleasent as it should be for me as a foreign language student. In the other hand, writing in Spanish is different, especially when I write what I want to express. Hence, for me writing in my mother tongue is like swimming in a pool. This makes me feel relaxing and comfortable.

    SO STRONG!!
    It's obvious you love to write in you Mother Tonger. I totally agree with you because that's exactly what happends to me. Since a was admitted at UniValle I just love writing in Spanish... English is more difficult and bored and French is the Most Difficult and The Most Bored Ever...
    Actually, I just love the way you exppress yourself, your ideas and points of you...
    What a Good text...!
