Something to think about:
I always tell girls to remember that friendships within a sorority are a two way street, just like other relationships you may have had.
Too often, I feel like new girls get upset that older members aren't just automatically and immediately asking them to do things. Sometimes, girls aren't going to automatically ask you to hang out. If you ask a girl what she's doing tonight and she says she's going out, it's okay to ask if you can join them.
My point is that you have to put yourself out there to make friends (just like in any other social situation).
Talk to girls, get involved on committees, ask to be included in things, and don't be afraid to invite yourself if girls are just going to Starbucks or something. We never minded if a girl just came along with us to dinner or something. I get the impression that you come from a rather large chapter, so there's probably no shortage of girls for you to talk to.
Making friends in ANY situation requires you to make an effort. Don't just sit back and say "I just sit alone in my room because no one talks to me or likes me." If you write everyone off and assume that they don't want to talk to you, things won't get better. You'll quit, then you still won't have any friends.
Best of luck to you!
