Do you need your Darija sentences to be corrected? Or you want to see if you understood well someone’s Darija sentences?
I am confused. Which part is the “translation” part that needs to be checked? Darija or English?
Okay, it’s clearer now to me.
My translations are underlined, accompanied with my remarks.

i didnt think that i was going to stay in morocco for another 5weeks Ma dennitch wach kent ghadi nebqa fel maghrib khemsa dial simanat khrin.
Your translation is rather word by word. “Other” comes at the end of the sentence, like I did.
wesh kanqdr minhna ntb3 min hna
can i print from here (when in a cyber cafe) Neqder netbe3 men hna?
You repeated men hna twice.
hewa gayrja3 lyoum f lil
he will return in the night Ghadi yerje3 f ellil.
I believe that g is equivalent to my gh. No need to mention the personal pronoun, it’s obvious.

which number bus do i need to take to go to the city? Ach men toubis khassni nchedd/nerkeb bach nemchi lemdina?
No need to say “bus number”, just ask about the “bus”, and you’ll get the number. And you don’t “take” the bus in Darija, you either ride it, or “grasp/hold” it.

Darija can of course be written in Arabic letters. That’s how it’s written on billboards in Morocco.
As far as I noticed on this forum, most people who learn Darija here do not learn the Arabic writing, and rely on transcription.
