not bad.
this isnt bad for a first flash. it could use a little bit more of a detailed story and a longer one at that with more situations like a death in the family or a breakup. maybe go through a day in the life of the character instead of just the morning. you can also take this in a few directions like making it funny or serious. all you need to do for the animation is smooth it out some and yes, slow down the text scenes. but again not bad i'm sure you can take this further with a little more time thought and effort. if you change this i want to know.
