said with all kinds of sympathy and from experience of giddy teenager like feelings...lower your expectations, Sweetie!
Have a nice time, enjoy yourself, don't expect this one to be "the" one.

Notice how high you get from even the smallest amount of attention and do your best to keep yourself in observation mode. Ie.. notice the thrill but dont get lost in it, dont let it become an attention-addiction. Have fun, keep expectations to a dull roar and maintain a wide perspective.

Have fun Shelly. Agree with another poster to lower your expectations to increase your chances that you will have a good experience.
It is nice having those positive hopes and I sure hope it all goes well for you.
Maybe you should go run 10 miles beforehand to take a little of the edge off!
