let's cut to the chase

I've made many mistakes this semester. Much time was spent wallowing in pools of guilt, disappointment, numbness, and [extreme] procrastination. And now, as the semester is nearing its end (how fast time flies), with a final approaching in less than 9 hours (oh look at what I'm doing), I feel regret and shame for what I did and didn't do.
I'm sorry for the unnecessary burdens I placed upon people, and for those I hurt - do I have the right to claim it was all unintentional? I'm sorry for letting distance and strains happen in relationships and for my occasional tendencies to be petty, self-absorbed, or depressed- which I instinctively hide.
However redundant they are, I'm trying to learn from my past errors and internal faults. Easier said than done.. to have what I believe in be reflected in my actions and how I treat others.

Old habits are stubborn, but if I see every minute as a new minute
for more consciousness,
for more love -

I can try..
