That's not something to be   about. 

Congrats on your decision.

I don't know what religion you are but as far as I am concerned when you accept CHRIST  and do what he ask that is all that matters.

Great News....

    I salute you!! Here is the link http://www.quadsforchrist.net/index.phpyou will find a lot of great informative and supportive information there,

In Christian baptism, there should be two requirements before a person is baptized:
(1) the person being baptized must have trusted in Jesus Christ as Savior, and
(2) the person must understand what baptism signifies.  If a person knows the Lord Jesus as Savior, understands that Christian baptism is a step of obedience in publicly proclaiming his faith in Christ, and desires to be baptized – then there is no reason to prevent the believer from being baptized. According to the Bible, Christian baptism is simply a step of obedience, a public proclamation of one’s faith in Christ alone for salvation. Christian baptism is important because it is a step of obedience – publicly declaring faith in Christ and commitment to Him, and identification with Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection.

Congrats on you decision

One more for the true brothers of Christ. Its part of the Christian walk. Everyone and anyone can do it. Does your seed fall in the furtile soil or does it fall on the hard ground or in the thorns? Congrats

AWESOME NEWS The best thing you can do in your life is live it for Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Though Him all things are possible.

      Always believe in yourself!!!

That's a very important thing to decide to do.  You should be proud to share  this moment in your life with your friends and family as you already have.  More than that, always remember what baptism symbolizes for a Christian:  Being buried with Christ and dead to sin, then rising again with Christ, washed clean and set free.

These song lyrics from Kyle Matthews say it all:

Been Through The Water

Preacher pulled the boy up from the water
Alleluias rose from the banks
There was a new suit of clothes from his Father
And a prayer of thanks

The boy walked barefooted all the way home for dinner
And when they laughed at his muddy feet...

He said I've been through the water and I've come out clean
Got new clothes to cover me
And you don't wear your old shoes on your brand new feet
When you've been through the water
Ah been through the water

Preacher turned them around at the altar
Pronounced the boy and his girl "man and wife"
In two years they were Mother and Father
And they built them a life
And his old girlfriend saw a moment of weakness
And she said "If you're lonely come see me sometime..."

He said I've been through the water and I've come out clean
Got new clothes to cover me
And you don't wear your old shoes on your brand new feet
When you've been through the water
Ah been through the water

He baits a hook with his grandson of seven
And says "Soon, I'll be free from these pains."
The boy asked if he's ever been to heaven
He says "No... but I think I know the way... 'cause I've been through the water..."

I've been through the water and I've come out clean
Got new clothes to cover me
And you don't wear your old shoes on your brand new feet
When you've been through the water
Ah been through the water

Yep, says it all!!!

1Jo 1:5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.  
1Jo 1:6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: 
1Jo 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 
1Jo 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 
1Jo 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 
1Jo 1:10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
Rom 8:1 [There is] therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 
Rom 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 
Rom 8:3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: 
Rom 8:4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.  
Rom 8:5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. 
Rom 8:6 For to be carnally minded [is] death; but to be spiritually minded [is] life and peace.
