gosh perna had some good suggestions. only thing i'd add-since you feel you are an introvert-think of this situation as a practice session to help you make friends. if they are ppl you don't know beforehand, you can practice being more conversational since you'll probably never see them again! less pressure on you. i'll leave it at that.
