i have one plant and one only, i love her very much however my curiosity got the best of me and my patience the worst so i decided to top her without 100 percent confidence i knew what i was doing.

i cut the top with a brand new razor at the very bottom of the node right before it. then i cut the little sub-leaves or whatever they're called at the joint of the branches. oh, and she's a little over a month old and she was about 8 in tall.

WILL SHE BE OK!!!!!!!!!!?

If you cut it clean and the open part doesn't get infected you should be ok. Anytime after the first 3-4 sets of true leaves is fine. Your plant should start growing into two different tips soon which you can also top but the more you top the bushier it gets.
