I appreciate your criticism and I do realize that I made a lot of
mistakes from the moment I took off. This experience made me more
aware of my responsibilities as a PIC, and I will be a lot more
prepared from now on when I fly.

This sounds like a successful flight. You made a mistake, realized what
you had done, and corrected it. Nobody got hurt, no metal got bent, no
paperwork got generated, and you learned from your mistake.

May all your flights in the future be as successful.
