Hello! I think you have some great ideas here, but the college essay needs to be less formal! The admissions officers want to get to know you, and so I think you don't need a formal introduction and conclusion. Instead, use this space to tell a story or two to illustrate your characteristics. Can you combine two of the characteristics into one story? Remember, "show, don't tell"--this can be more like creative writing than you're currently making it, and that's how your application will really stand out. Good luck!
