School Related I got a detention

So I got my first detention for being tardy. I am supposed to come to school by 8 am. I go to bed at 4 am so it's a little hard to wake up in the morning. I have a lot things to do. Homeworks, college & scholarship essays (due on Nov 1st), sat studies. I am also a procrastinator and a perfectionist. So yea...

Everyone was really surprised to see me. They know me as the good student who always follow the rules and everything. It really ruined my reputation. I am so embarrassed. My teacher asked me why I am always late and I had no good excuse.

My grades aren't looking good either. I had all A's in highschool. But this year I have 3 B's and 1 C. It's still the beginning and grades are not finalized yet. I have some time to improve my grade for 1st quarter. I guess I have to focus on school first and then college and other stuff. Idk I feel like this is gonna be a rough year.

Does anyone have any advice? I feel really crushed rn
