Someone please help me to correct my sentences

If we didn't get onto that bus at that time still we are in that bus halt.

After I came home I ate noodles as well. Then only I realized that my tummy is not small.

I'm concentrating on my lecture all right at the moment.

Why have you put that status on Facebook as well?

Are you still awake in this late-night?

If we hadn't gotten (got) on that bus/If we had missed that bus, we would still be waiting at the bus stop.
After I came home, I ate noodles as well. Only then did I realize that my tummy wasn't small.
I have no problem(s) concentrating on my (or perhaps "the") lecture at the moment.
Why have you put that status on Facebook as well?

On to that bus or into that bus?
And there why can we say 'If we didn't get...' in first sentence?

"On that bus" is corect.

You can't say "I am in the bus." You say "I am on the bus." The poster is correct.

If.......had/had not........., ....would........
This is a pattern for grammar. Since there is "would" in the latter part, you must use "had" and not "did".

"Get on" is the right phrasal verb for bus transportation. You use get on for airplane and ship as well. Get in/into is used for car/taxi.
In conditional sentences, you have to use past perfect if you are talking about past. Past simple refers to the present.
So
"If I had eaten" refers to past
and
"if I ate" refers to the present time.

hrsanei"if I ate" refers to the present time.
Or the future Emotion: time. Right?
