haha- calm down, breath, grab a 10mm socket wrench and open your hood.
With the socket wrench unscrew the Negitive terminal "-" of your battery for about 5 minutes to reset the ECU.
After 5 minutes, screw the Negitive terminal of the battery back on tight and reprogram your radio stations and clock. After this you won't have a check engine light.
Hope that helps
