On the picture it does not look sooo horribly bad. But can't you just practice your skills outside that calculator a little before the next attempt?

I agree, you haven't done any serious damage. So you should practice your soldering a bit and then have another go. Where are you based? Maybe there is someone near you who would be happy to help.

One thing I don't get though is, could you not simply plug the wires back in? I think there are sockets in the pcb.
