today
Today was a really long busy day.
Early in the morning I was waken up by a barking dog and I could not go to bad anymore. I then decided to have a breakfast buy I had find out that I didn't have any milk, so I had to run to the 24 hour shop. After I had my breakfast I walked my dog to the nearby park. I then took a shower and I got out to go to my job.
The train was late by 10 minutes so I started to read a newspaper. When I finally got at my office I had a meeting with my manager and an outside person. After that we had a lunch together at the nearby restaurant. I had a greek salad, my manger got macaroni cheese and the other person got a pizza.
In the afternoon I had to work extra hard because my colleague was not there and we had many things that had to be done.
When I left the office I was exhausted and I felt asleep on the train, when I suddenly woke up the train was just at my station.

When I finally got at to my office I had a meeting with my manager and an outside person (an outside person sounds wrong - perhaps you can say: client, patron, customer etc). After that we had a lunch together at the a nearby restaurant. I had a greek salad, my manger got macaroni cheese and the other person got a pizza.
In the afternoon I had to work extra hard because my colleague was not there (away) and we had many things that had to be done.
When I left the office I was exhausted and I fell asleep on the train. When I suddenly woke up the train was just at my station.
That's pretty good writing. Just a few small spelling errors, and the main points are:
1) Revise some prepositions - "I get to my office" but "I arrive at my office".
2) In English we simply have breakfast or have lunch or have dinner, we don't put a/the before it. Good rule to remember. But when we are ordering or describing the actual food, you generally need a/the, which you did. I got a pizza, she'll have the pasta.
