As you continue to work in the round, you will do a lot of sliding back and forth of the stitches so that you can work them. You might also want to slide the stitches off the needle part and onto the cable part of the needle after you have worked them so you don't have to worry about them slipping off the needle or getting in your way as you work with the other needle.
When you start knitting, you can place a stitch marker before the last stitch on the second needle (where it won't fall off) to mark the end of the row. Or use two circular needles that are different colors; then you will always know what side you're on!
Knitting in the round with two circular needles feels a little strange at first, but after a few rows you should begin to see your project taking shape (with no twists!) and will quickly gain confidence.
