SO flash fiction makes it not seem too short, because it's supposed to be.

Every time something new happens I try not to list everything in the room before moving on. But this is some good advice.

And I always get the same 'good job!'. So I went to tell them that they need to be more critical, but they said that it's that good and I don't have anything to criticize, except for some spelling errors.

But when you think about it, the way we communicate with our friends kinds does sounds like a different language.

Sure, it would be a lot easier if all languages worked the same way. But how interesting would it be? There wouldn't really be a difference, would it. I generally enjoy the fact that there are different languages.

I have problems putting everything "I" want to do in a single, normal sentence.

My characters are usually out of the ordinary, so it's kinda weird to pick into their brain and write what they're thinking.

There wasn't any conflict for a while, and it started to get boring to write.

It really makes you think about stuff you've probably read of in the past, and if that character was really interesting.
