Go through working out who is the subject of the verb. If you put the verb in the translater on site (home page) it will bring up all the uses plus at the end conjugations. 1 is tu she is asking her friend did you see .. 2 is yo she is talking about herself 3. As she talks about having trouble paying her card I think it is yo not nosotros. 4 and 5 I think both of these are third person plural ie Hernan's parents.
Now just look up the correct conjugations - you need to learn them so you can say them automatically
