Reflection Section:
This exercise really helped me understand how reflexive verbs are used in daily routines. In Spanish, these verbs are essential when describing things you do to yourself, like washing, brushing, or waking up. Using these verbs with specific objects—like champú (shampoo) and secador de pelo (hairdryer)—allowed me to connect language learning to my real-life activities. It also reinforced the importance of understanding verb conjugation, especially for routines that involve personal care.

As I reflected on my morning routine, I noticed how structured it is. By writing it out in Spanish, I've been able to see how language can both capture and influence the way I experience my day. Every step of my routine became a learning opportunity, and this practice helped me apply Spanish to my everyday life in a meaningful way.

Conclusion:
This assignment emphasized the importance of reflexive verbs in Spanish and how they are tied to daily activities. By using these verbs to describe my routine, I was able to practice both vocabulary and grammar in a practical, engaging way. Language learning is all about integrating these small, personal moments into larger patterns, and this assignment was a great example of that.
