During the installation process you were ask to enter the root password and
retype it, remember?
well that is your superuser, you can log in with login: root and the
password you enter in the installation.
During the installation you were also ask if you want to create new users, I
assume you say no.
thats no problem with the root account you can create new user. check this

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/users.html

Be careful with your activity with root, because the superuser can do
anything in the system.
I suggest you create a user and work with it. if you want to do something
that needs superuser permisions
you can use the command su or install sudo.
