spanglish 

Used by Hispanic-Americans(ME) to speak to other Hispanic-Americans whom can understand both Spanish and English. When a person can't remember how to say a word in spanish, they say in English, and vice-versa
Yo estaba sentada en mi porch waiting for you.

Cuando fui a la casa I laid down and fell asleep.

My hermano is muy annoying.

Spanglish 

A mix of the two languages Spanish and English

Often used in the Latino community, or used by white kids trying too look cool and exotic.
Sometimes this will be the end result of a half-assed public school spanish education.

One small detail I noticed with Spanglish is that speakers use cognates a lot.
Look I can speak Spanglish,

Hola, mi amigo, do you want to go to the restaurante to get tacos and burritos?

I need to go pee mucho rapido.

I just finished Spanish 1, now im taking Spanish 2.Watch me pick up some Latina girls. "Hola, chicas you are looking very muy caliente."

spanglish 

combination of english and spanish words, spoken with the non-english accent and often contains words that are of neither language, or words with elements of both languages. may be spoken by someone who doesnt speak spanish and/or english well, or someone who speaks both very well. often used intelligently by switching languages for emphasis. also spoken by "latinos" in the united states who share parts of U.S. culture and culture from a latin american country, and prefer speaking both languages instead of one or the other (also can interchange languages at will).
parquear (par-ke-ar:, in english "to park" a vehicle, in spanish "estacionar") is an example of a spanglish word.

spanglish 

- Switching from English to Spanish rapidly
- Using spanish words in an English conversation or vice-versa
1. Como se llama la chica con la mochila roja? Oh hey whats up? I have so much homework this sucks!

2. Hey Chica you looked muy caliente today

* Forgive the lack of accent marks and punctuation, my computer doesn't do accent marks and etc.

ps. Talking in Spanglish is fun, its the best of both languages
