You have no idea how right you were! I had no need for notecards at all.
I was on a high for about 2 hours afterwards. It was a wonderful experience! Afterwards our host, who is a former Cinci Mayor and US Representative, asked me if I've ever considered running for a public office, because I really know how to command the attention of a room.

Woohoo!!! Great, I'm so happy for you! I was told similar things after my first speech (age 16 or so) so I knew I did well, but maaaaan nervous doesn't even cover it. I acted cool through the whole thing then, after it was over, I sank into a dead faint. When people wonder about speech advice, I always say to take care of yourself after....and for the love, PLEASE remain conscious!
