Also, they are all going to be living in the house all year next year together, but I can only live in starting second semester next year.
I've even come to the point today that I considered dropping, but everyone is encouraging me to stick with it because it takes a long time. Does anyone have any comforting words or any advice? Thanks so much

They aren't really your pledge class...I assume they've already been initiated. Are there any other new members from recent COB events? If you are the only NM right now, that can be tough, but don't try to conquer Rome in one day. You have your entire pledgeship to get used to the idea of joining AGD. You don't have to be best friends with everyone today. Your job right now is to learn what is required of you in your NM program. You'll be getting a Sister-Mother soon, and that should really help you feel more involved in the chapter. There is room in your sisters' hearts for you as well as their pledge sisters. It's not a competition, so you aren't behind in the race. Put your best effort into getting to know the women in your chapter, and you'll see the benefits of membership in a great organization! Good luck!
