Ah... I see, I was confused because the vocabulary tell "cooked rice or meal"... sometimes I did mistake that I could evitate... if I think about it, I realize that the more proper word to use in this translation was the word "meal"..

The word ご飯 could be confusing to the Japanese learner as it can mean both "meal" and "cooked rice". But in the following phrases, it can only mean one of them.

ご飯を作る = to cook a meal

ご飯を炊（た）く = to cook rice

ご飯（を）する = to eat a meal. This is a colloquial expression.

Sometimes I mistake him for a girl and my heart pounds.
The "ドキっとして" mean the sound of heartbeats? xD so that's why his heart beats? I image is more a joke -way to say things?

ドキ　（or　ドキドキ） is an onomatopoeia for heart beats. We have hundreds of onomatopoeias. Use them correctly and you will sound like a native speaker.

The sentence, I'm sure, was a light joke.

He has a taste for podwered green tea.

"おられます" mean "to have , to be"?

おられます is the honorific word for おります. 　おります＝います.

Here with the word "努力しない" I thought that the translation was "not have doing a great effort" is not a 'non existent' of something the "ない" ? That's what confuse me

～～しないといけない = to have to ~~. It's really saying "not doing ~~ is no good", do you see this? Just say yes.

I have a question... maybe it's me, but I have this thing that I prefer that the translations will keep (as more as possible) a more similar structure and words as in the original phrase.. I don't know how to explain... I mean... the writer used the word "boom" that mean "in" I see, but what do you think if I would leave the original word that was "boom" ? If you would translate this phrase more similar possible, how it would be?

"Recently the snake pattern is so so so much the boom thing among myself" ?

"Recently, the snake patten is so so so much the "in" thing among myself

I understand what you're tryng to say here and you aren't wrong. But in this case, we are using the word "ブーム" for a different meaning than the word "boom" in English. One cannot say the origianl said "boom" because what it said was "ブーム". This is why I purposefully didn't use the word "boom" in my translation.　

If in English, something happening to only one person can be called a "boom", then I am wrong.

Look carefully. The word is とっても, not もとって. とっても is the colloquial pronunciation of とても.
