am I still a good shape? or not doing well? please give me some advices

on april
actually I started to play HUSNG seriously from april 17th
I played 460 games of 33 and 55 HUSNG with 8% ROI make $1500 plus $200 ($780 rake) for the rake back in April I made this results for 13-14 days
and in May stats are not good as April
My stats in may so far 250 games mostly(about 85% I think) are 55's HUSNG with 1.7 ROI
I make $213 and plus $150 rakeback (My rake so far this month is $557 I got 27% offerer rakeback)
which is unhappy because I think HUSNG's rakes are smaller than normal sitngo (less than 5% of buy in) and even though I make $213, I paid $557 for FullTilt site which is not good
am I still a good shape?
and how many buy ins would regulars normally make in a month?

You're probably doing

You're probably doing fine.
I'd continue to work and improve your game, but this is probably some sort of "downswing" for you, and considering you're still making money, that is good.
Even the best pros experience months when they lose money, so long as they are pushing themselves (yes, you could sit at the 10s for 3 months and make money every month, but you want to fulfill your potential).
So work on your game, but don't fret if you can't consistently win at 5% or whatever for every month.  Variance can really take a toll, not only on a few hundred games, but even over 1,000 games.
Two players of the same winning ROI of about 5% or so can play 10,000 games and one can earn 2x as much as the other and that's pretty standard variance.
