Instead of making up new languages, why don't you get your mastery of English down a bit more? You'll go much further with it.

I guess conlangs for fun or fantasy are okay, but I can't help but find all these Kool-Aid drinkin' Esperantists a bit goofy. Sure, Esperanto and its siblings are quite easy for speakers of Europeans to learn, but for everyone else, it's an entirely new language -- and if they're going to learn an entirely new language, they might as well learn one which more than a few thousand people actually speak fluently. If any language brings about world unity and peace, it's not going to be a conlang.
