Can you check the following sentences, on reflexive verbs, please? Thank you.

1) I used to live on my own (better than by myself) in a one-room apartment. One morning, I woke up at 6 a.m. then I got up and went into the bathroom.
2) I got washed and dressed and then I rushed downstairs and made myself breakfast. I sat down and I helped my self to a cup of tea (I served a cup of tea myself)
3) As soon as I finished breakfast, I put on my coat and left home. Unfortunately I forgot my rucksack in the corridor.
4) I caught the school bus and while in the bus I realized my rucksack was at home. (I remembered leaving it in the doorway is possible?)
When I arrived at school, the teacher complained for not having it (because I didn't bring any books to school) and wrote me a reprimand.
5) My teacher always worried about little things but that time she was furious with me.
6) I couldn't concentrate though my schoolmates told me I should relax and take it easy. Of course I got bored,too because I couldn't take any notes.
7) When lessons were over, I decided to walk back home and I met my best friend Tina. She told me that she had just passed her diving test and I congratulated with her (on passing it/for passing it are they both possible) warmly. She invited me to come around one of those days.

Compare very carefully.
