- It's because of the expression "to come along", meaning "to join [people]" Imagine you are having coffee with two friends, and they start talking about going to a live at a bar one of them knows. They speak of it in front of you but are not saying anything that means you're invited, so it's a bit awkward. You might say : "Hey, that sounds great, do you mind if I come along?" But it also means to make progress : "Albert's English is coming along well" Or to hurry up : you're walking down the fields, and your dog is lagging behind you sniffing at things... You will typically turn around and say "come on Ruffus, come along now!" (yes, it's pretty british). So in this extract JKR probably means "to join". Harry (or whoever) feels left out. It could be : Why had ron and hermione got together without inviting him to come as well?0 votedMay 14, 20171

When I brushed my teeth, I looked at my face with in the mirror and then I realized that I still haven't took taken a bath.
歯磨きをしている時、鏡私の顔を見て、まだ風呂に入っていないことに気がついた。
We have a meeting with my important clients tomorrow. >> ok, this is correct, but a little bit weird, because "we" is plural, and "my" is singular. If the clients are the clients "of the company", it would be better to say "We have a meeting with important clients tomorrow"
Nothing is more important than this meeting.
If I'm late, my boss will get mad at me. So It's better to bring my earplug. >> Don't forget the space after the dot!
明日は大事なお客さんと打ち合わせがある。これより大事なものはない。もし遅刻したら、上司は私に怒り狂うだろう。だから耳栓を持って行かなくては。Good job! I hope the meeting went well.

I AM. My arms are sore, my shoulders ache, I’m strolling down the streets carrying my heavy bag topped up with worries and doubts about my teaching. Racked with guilt for having them and being too ashamed to say it aloud.
Suddenly, Sir Google - galloping on a white horse in shining armour - comes to the rescue with his message: Do You Doubt Yourself? Doubting Thomas vs. Reflective Teacher and What Can We Learn From Self-Doubt?
Article read.
Dragon defeated.Great job otherwise!!

Sleeping too much can make many people who just wake up feel like passing through time and space and keep asking themselves, who am I, where am I and why am I here. So on the way chasing your dreams, do you often sleep too much and forget yourself?Nice and poetic! Be careful, there is always a space after commas ( , ) and dots ( . ). Also, in questions verb and subject are inverted.
I am becomes Am I.
