Narrative:

It was all pilot error. I thought I was landing at brooks county. I was a little bit disorganized from the beginning. I believe the problem was caused because I wasn't paying attention and was a little disorganized (as stated in the statement above). The good thing that came out of it is that I was taught to always familiarize myself with the surrounding airports and also to organize my cockpit management. I believe these small corrections will solve the problem and prevent it from happening again.
