why my sentences are so short?

0 When I write, my sentences are not long. They are very short. I notice some people's sentences are long and easy to understand..but mine aren' t like that.02br
02br
00For example, 02br
02br
00(I normally write like this)02br
02br
00I go to the mall. (okay, maybe a little longer)02br
02br
00(other people write like this)02br
02br
00I go to the mall because I need to buy new clothes for the trip next week.02br
02br
00My questions:02br
02br
00Why do I write such a short sentence?02br
02br
00How can I write long sentences without thinking about it?02br
02br
00Will my writing (like on essays) look bad or sound bad if I write short sentences?02br
02br
00I mean, people usually understand my essays, but it doesn't look right to me to write short sentences..I hope that I am making some sense...02br
02br
00Thanks.02br
02br
00Needless to say, english is my second language..so yea.. 0-
