How to specify time event in great details?

How to tell a person this: 

On 25 of July, 2016, at 3 o'clock, the phone rang.

Are the following sentences correct?

 - I usually wake up AT half past ten.

- I go to work ON Monday.

- ON 23 of July I didn't got to work.

- IN 2016 I turned 26. 

Thank you! BTW should the word 'you' be spelled with uppercase in :)?

How to determine which one to use? Present perfect or Simple Past?

Hi everyone. I face big difficulties which tense to use Present Perfect or Simple Past. Is there a methodology to help me differentiate them? 

When a specific time is used into the predicate, I have no problems, I just use simple past. Here  this is an example that induce a lot of frustration to me, because it seems to contradict one of the rules that define simple past tense. Consider this example:

    "I graduated from North Carolina State University with a bachelors degree in Industrial and Systems Engineering."

Why simple past? Why not: 
"I HAVE  graduated from North Carolina State University with a bachelors degree in Industrial and Systems Engineering."

Please help me to choose the right tense without ambiguity!

Thank you!

Do somebody want to practice English together?

I am mostly available for talk in the weekends and from 22:00 to 00:00 Monday - Friday, UTC+3 (DST). If someone like Skype conversation feel free contact me :) 

Any corrections on my post are very welcome!

I work 167.33 hours a month Why should we work so much? We have reached such technological advance, with machines that are one thousand times more efficient than those one hundred years ago. And yet I can afford little bit more than my ancestors from that time. The technology should liberate people from labor. Then why a fifty years ago only the man in the family was sufficient to feed and educate (to provide) the family? Now both parents work, the family barely get together. The standard of living seems to get worse. We have advanced technologically, but in terms of social matter, it seems to me there is a declaim. If you consider my thoughts reasonable, please share your opinion, what might cause this situation.

Hello, is there someone who would like to learn me to say hi in French? Hi, I have always loved the way French sound. It is going to be an opportunity for both of us to get to know each other (our culture, our knowledge, our customs, what we love, what we don't love, etc..). For people that care about everything like me.

Is there anyone who agree to speak in English? My English is intermediate level. I believe the best way to learn language is to speak with each other. This is how children get familiar of language in a first place.
