I am a very outgoing person but since everyone already has their close friends in the sorority, I guess I am being kind of shy and leery about this whole thing.
Did anyone start off kind of left out and unsure, but completely got in the swing of things? Thanks!

Many people feel this way.
As has been said on here many times before, you have to make an effort. Invite a sister to lunch, to go shopping, to coffee, etc. You bond with each other through shared experiences, and just like any relationship it takes work.
Also for me, I became closest with my sisters during the week leading up to my first recruitment "on the other side." In addition, moving into the house allowed me to grow closer with many girls that I had not yet had the opportunity to know well.
In other words, relax, exhale, enjoy things. Your feelings are normal, but you MUST put forth some of the effort to get to know your sisters. Otherwise you will just be "the girl" that everyone says keeps to herself.
Good luck!
