Pay more attention to the temperature guage, it is there for a reason

You need to drain the oil asap and flush the engine with some cheap oil. When oil and water mix the mixture will end up destroying every bearing in the engine, so do it!

replacing the gasket is a pretty in depth job and most shops will charge a nice chunk of change to do it right, you should replace the timing belt, water pump, and all associated pulleys as well as the head gasket and a full set of head bolts.

Might just want to look at a new engine, they can be had pretty cheap.
