Whoah, simma there, sweetie
Listen, the first year of college is a major transition in one's life. And I can imagine how you are stressing about your first impressions. I spent hours before each night of rush figuring out what to wear. But you know something? The girls in the chapter never once said anything about clothes or makeup or anything. We talked about our travels and awards in school and what was most important to us, etc. Trust me, looks may grab, but personality holds. Just relax. College is the most amazing time of your life. Four years of learning and growing in an environment with 1000's of new people. There is absolutely nothing wrong with your list if that is what makes YOU happy and comfortable. But make sure that your wonderful and classy personality compliments your stellar wardrobe. What these girls look for is how you act at parties prior to and during rush for the most part. Because if you are puking at every party and seen going upstairs with different boys every hour it does not reflect well on your charachter. I am sure that you are not this type of girl though, so no worries

. Besides, if all we cared about was what you wear, we could just do a lineup of girls and select new members. But we really want to meet you! And remember that everyone kinda starts from scratch in college as far as reputations go, so take this opportunity to let your true self shine through and meet all the new amazing kids in the dorm from all over the country and even world. You will not be a dork. Swear. No one is a "dork" in college, they are just considered "independent and individualistic." Haha.
