We all have that same problem to one degree or another. Not many of us have been blessed with a photographic memory. I agree, even if we wrote down everything we learned, who would want to carry it around?
The only way most of us will ever learn anything new, including Spanish, is if we study and practice. It takes repetition and review for most things to stick in our minds. For this you will need determination and patience. If you take the example of a young child, they do not magically learn to speak within a couple of weeks or months. They learn to speak gradually, one or two words at a time. They then progress to short phrases and finally sentences. Even then, the conversation of a 5 year old is not as mature as that of a 12 year old.
The point is, if you are really interested in learning Spanish, you must be committed to the process. That is why we are all here, to learn and improve on a daily basis.
Happy studying!
Are you in a place where you can stick Post-its on your furniture to label object? That's a great way to learn nouns.
When I took German in highschool, my teacher told me to make up songs about something. 11 years later, I still remember the ridiculous songs.
If you want to conjugate verbs... practice, practice, practice.
Also, it helps to have a buddy that you practice with. I have my kiddo.
I take notes for each lesson but mosty I just practice: in my head, with my toddler, or on paper. I could not do this without my notes.
I hope it helps.
Would it really be that much of a hassle to carry around a small little memo pad in your pocket with a pen? If you have room in your pockets for a wallet or cell phone, it's big enough to fit that too. It's good because you can write down any new word that you come across that interests you and then you can review it several times during the day or night so that it sticks. Just hearing a word once doesn't cut it, you need to review it several times to remember things.

There is a website called www.studystack.com It is a good site that lets you make flash cards online. It also lets you play games with whatever you put on your flash cards so that you can study them without the need of paper! You have to sign up for it, though.
