I'd have to agree with some of the others.  The first time you're alone in 
that stuff it's "for real".  I was on my way to the Outback Bowl last year 
with my wife and in-laws aboard, and got dropped down into to hard IFR (not 
my first time though :) ) .  No sweat...because about 3 days before, I went 
up with my regular instructor and did about 2 hours of actual.  Always keep 
your training up, it's really easy to slip.  I was fortunate in the fact 
that I had a lot of actual IFR time in my training.  Made my first time 
alone not so bad.  I have had the "leans" before...I just trust in the 
panel.  That's all you can do.  If you fly by what your ass is telling you, 
you'll dig a hole.
