My first solo was in Grand Forks, ND. I was so nervous I was shaking. I closed the door and sat there for a minute or so just taking in the fact that I wasn't going to have anyone there to save me if I did something stupid. I was really nervous right up until I lifted off. Then I just said to myself, well I have no choice but to do it now. After that I was pretty calm. Each landing calmed me down a little more. Only had one moment worth mentioning. On my final landing, tower told me to "keep my base in tight" for a crj on final. I really hadn't done this before or heard this before but I figured it out. Then they told me to keep the speed up and get off the runway quickly so the crj didn't have to go around. NO PRESSURE! I did it and lived and the crj didn't have to go around. ATC told me I did a great job. I will never forget that day.
