Bare with me, I've been learning Spanish for about two weeks and still make mistakes putting simple 4 word sentences together! Thanks for starting this thread, it will be a great place to practice.

¡Hola!

Me llamo Laura. Mi día fue muy aburrido. Debo limpiezarse esta noche, excepto estoy muy extenuado.

Instead of cleaning, maybe I should pick up another spanish book!

I'm not sure what are you trying to say in that post.
So far so I could understand a little.

Me llamo Laura, mi dia fue muy aburrido. Then as fas so you are right.
I should to take a shower tonight.
Debo tomar un baño esta noche

In the other text I couldn't understand clarify.

Best regards.

That bad? Can't blame a person for trying, but I guess I should understand the basics first!

It was along the lines of "My name is Laura. My day was really boring. I should clean tonight, except I'm really tired".

"¡Hola!

Me llamo Laura. Mi día fue muy aburrido. Debo hacer la limpieza esta noche, pero estoy muy extenuada."

hacer la limpieza (better than "limpiar" because it implies house chores, but this is OK too)

pero is not excepto but they are not totally unrelated.

I would grade it B minus, 6.5 or 13/20

Don't reveal my secrets!

About how did you do? Hmm! a C or C minus

Remember: In Spanish you'll never find two verbs conjugated together. There are conjugated verbs, there are verboids -infinitive, gerundio, participle-, and you may find a lot of them lumped together, but none or just only one among them will be conjugated. Also, there's no Spanish version of "do" as in "Yes, I do".

What would you correct in your text?

^That was really helpful, thank you! Knowing there is no "do" in Spanish makes things a bit more understandable for me now.

I hope this is better!

¿Te gusta Into The Wild? ¡Yo También! Yo gusta la música de la película.

I thought that cat was the cat of the movie shrek sincerely I didn't remember what is the name of the cat in the movie, only I can remember the lovable face of the cat when he is trying to convince to the shrek to does something he wants, or when the ass is telling him something
