Oh my goodness. I can't even begin to tell you how I know exactly what you mean. I rushed this past fall, knowing zero people. Bid day came and went & it was hard to be thrown into a group & suddenly try to find friends.
Right around thanksgiving we each met with out scholarship chair to discuss goals for the next quarter. I included school goals, but also personal ones. One of the most important ones, to me, was to make some stronger, closer friendships. I say that it was around thanksgiving because now, the beginning of Feburary, I'm house-hunting with three girls from my pledge class.
Trust me when I say that the "I love my bestfriend, she's going to be my maid of honor" type of friendship will come. I'm not even to that point yet, but it's coming. Like so many other good things, it just takes a little time.
