Do you have any recommendations for books or movies? Perhaps I will take a trip to the movie store and library tomorrow!

Just something that you like, a novel and not a theme like history, but history made story. Ideally a novel that you already have read in English and that has been translated to Spanish. Now if you get one of those novel that are also narrated, you are on your way to glory, because it wil help you also to compare your recorded voice of the novel you are reading/translating to English against the narrated novel supposedly narrated by a native. :-)
It is hard to do, because you don't have the usual support system and a "teacher" supposedly taking you by the hand. It is you, your intelligence and your determination to do what you have to do.
And then you have, practically, the rest of the world to help you. (read : your work, the guy next door, the store clerk, the internet and us)
