I saw in one story okulumda, but when I want to say I at home, I say Ben evdeyim. What is write first: suffix for location, or possesive suffix? Please help me!

okulumdayım 

m => possessive (my)

m =>subject (I)

when there is a possessive, locative follows it:
evimdeyim ( I am at my house)
when there is no possessive, locative follows the noun:
evdeyim (I am at home)
hope this helps.
