When -> とき
To say when you did an activity, usually as a reference in time, you add -とき at the end of the verb for that sentence. If it happend in the past, it has to be the past tense verb its attached to. If it happened just now, present tense is fine. It has to be regular form, not polite.
Note on past tense vs present tense on the first sentence: If something happens while your actively doing the activity, like walking to work and something happens, you'd use the present tense verb. If something happens after you've arrived, then you'd use past tense.
