Emily, 

the verb is the reflexive expression ‘ se dépêcher de ( faire qqc) ‘. 

Do you know you can get the translation of phrases in the exercise by clicking on them? There are also many good online dictionaries - bilingual or monolingual as needed - to check words and many expressions eg wordreference, Larousse, Robert etc 

‘ Se dépêcher de m’habiller … ’ here  ‘ I hurry getting dressed … ‘  is the translation given in the exercise

The verb "se dépêche de" is a reflexive expression. Which means "to hurry".

Always click on each word or expression used in the passage to get the meaning. 

If u were clicking to check the meaning of the word , You would realised that the writer was using some expression like "ce moment-là, je cours dans ma chambre" to tell us that around this time she does things in a hurry because she want to meet the subway .
