Are these sentences correct? I have some doubts.

Are these sentences correct? I have some doubts.
 
 
The sentences are a part of a short story.
1) I’ve travelled to school by bus for a week so I thought I’ll have liked it.
2) That day I was in a hurry to school and nearly missed my bus.
3) I got off and checked my pockets; my wallet wasn�t there.
4)That was a terrible feeling. I´ve never lost as big an amount of money as this time.
Thank you for your help :-)
Have a good day.

Not correct.

2) That day I was in a hurry to get to school and... 

3) correct 

4) I�ve never lost such a big amount of money as I did this time.

Another idea from a native Brit.  I have changed the tenses because this sounds as if you are relating something that happened in the past with no connection to the present:
 
1. I had been travelling to school by bus for a week so I should have got used to it by then. 
2. That day I was late getting ready for school and nearly missed my bus.
3. OK
4. I felt awful.  I had never lost so much money before!
