I think one of my biggest problems in getting to know my sisters was that I got mono less than a month after we got bids and missed a lot of pledging events because of it and by the time I got better, it seemed that everyone already had their groups and because I am shy I had trouble forcing myself into the groups.
I rooming with two nice girls next year so hopefully I can really connect with them and they will help me meet more sisters.
I have a lot of friends outside greek life and in other houses, so im not necessarily worried about not having a great group of friends, but I just feel like Im not getting as much as I can out of my sorority experience and I want to be able to look back on it and think that it was the best that it could be.
Thank you all for your responses, it is so nice that there is a community like this one.

YAY a GC success story. OP, I completely know how you feel. I'm one of those people where it takes me a long time to get a core group of friends and I am usually acquaintences with tons of people but not best friends. Living in the house was the best thing to remedy this. Just hanging out watching TV or running to get McDonalds are some of the best ways to bond with your sisters! Don't be afraid of "tagging along" or kind of inviting yourself when girls are going out either, you are all sisters and speaking from experience, going out is always more fun with the more people that you have! I am NO WAY advocating solely bonding on the basis of going out at night, I mean going out in all situations like the mall, movies, etc.
