There are a lot of things that go on in the house that I thought didnt happen ya know drinking, guys etc but i guess the way things work is a little different but i still definitley love the house. I've started to get to know people in the house a little bit better which I like but I'm hoping to start fitting in more.

I think what you're going through is pretty normal. There's always some adjustment going on when new members join, both within the new member class and the sorority in general. My pledge class included a lot of COBs, and while it felt like there was a division between us who'd pledged during formal recruitment and "them," it soon went away and we were all initiated at the same time. In fact, I can't even remember who in my pledge class joined with me and who COB'd. The one piece of advice I wish someone had given me when I was a new member, though, is to go to every event possible--sisterhoods, mixers, TV nights, whatever. Just go. You will get to know the sisters and your fellow new members much better, and they will get to know you. I'm glad you're enjoying yourself, though, and best wishes for the rest of your new member period!
