The biggest issue one faces to prepare oneself for the first day at college is not the worry of faculty or the difficulty of syllabus, but it is indeed the question of what to wear.
Jeans happen to be the favorite choice but thats exactly why they reek of boredom and lack of experimentation. Too much color on the other hand may send signals of being frivolous and bold. Suits may fit easily into conservative and narrow mindedness.
So surely, when one settles for the ultimate choice - it has to be with mixed feelings. Only it goes down the drain when you find everyone else wearing plain jeans with a variety of solid colored shirts to match.
The day of orientation was bittersweet. The college in itself promises a good faculty with strict rules. The peers promise good ideas to beat the strict rules. And life begins with all new twists and turns...

I remember dreading the first day of college for a whole different reason. Is ragging dead already???

Kind of weird na, how most Bollywood flicks manage to portray college as a fun-friends-movies-and-bunking bag full of nonsense. There's betting, flirting, song and dance. We're lucky its not the same with real life. As for clothes, I too believe that first impression counts. But that's only until they open their mouths. Believe me,looks can be decieving. So first impression isn't always the last impression.
I'd like to make an impression here, my connection's working again! :D

Oops, that's deceiving. "i before e except after c." Silly me, the heat's got my spellings all wrong.
