If you go out with the attitude that you're looking to make friends and be part of something larger than yourself, then lose the label you chose and go do it.

You don't want to be someone's pity bid. You want to be where you're really wanted--and in a system of that size, there's a place for almost anyone. Somewhere on that campus is a fraternity full of [and I'm not suggesting this judgmentally] WoW-playing, Star Trek geeks where OP will feel at home.
And OP should stop apologizing for being awkward. Just about everyone, especially their Freshman year, is awkward in college. It's the first time they've been away from home, they may have grown up with helicopter parents who never let them make decisions for themselves, etc. The good news to OP is that just about every other freshman is in the same boat.
