I started a "Spanish" notebook where I put my class notes and any other concepts, vocabulary, etc. for myself to review/study. I watched Shrek in Spanish the other day and started this vocabulary list; it's only for the first 30 minutes or so but there are a lot of good words I legitimately think I will use in every day conversation. (I did give up note-taking at some point and just wanted to watch the movie). I don't know why but I'm obsessed with the word "cuchitril" (Donkey uses this word to refer to Shrek's house). Another favorite that comes up a lot throughout the movie is "hechizo" which means "spell". One of the resources our teacher showed us for looking up words is this website/dictionary, Word Reference. It's helpful because it lists various meanings and puts them in sentences, definitely a step up from Google Translate
Spanish summary: Empecé un cuaderno para estudiar palabras en español. Anteayer, ví la película, Shrek, y escribí los palabras nuevas. Bienvenidos a mi pantano.
