There's nothing wrong being shy. Although I appear a very funny person who likes to crack jokes in class and at the office, I'm not sociable at all after work. Maybe you can start with one or two persons whom you feel comfortable enough with. This will be the first step. When you build a bond with them, you can ask them to introduce one or two friends of theirs to you. In this way, you'll be able to get to know more and more people at a certain pace. Acutally some people DO prefer shy girls, and be comfortable about your personality. There's NOTHING wrong at all being shy! Good luck!

Keep asking everyone you can find "How can I become more sociable?"
I'm shy too. Some people think that means I'm stuck-up. But get me talking about something I really like and suddenly I'm TOO sociable.
*Sigh*

With your eyes closed , use "visualization", like athletes and entertainers do, to practice and picture yourself being fairly assertive and confident in your interactions. Do this regularly, and don't focus on things you believe are your "faults", since your embarrassment is caused by your thinking that others are judging or doubting you. If people are actually judging you, cut them out of your life, now.

By getting off the computer and meeting people. The more you interact with people, the more you'll be comfortable doing so.
Try controlled settings first, like a club (not the dancing kind) or civic organization, like feeding the hungry.

Smile (no phony grin) and speak to people. Be genuine.

role play (initiating conversations, approaching people...) with good friends that you're already comfortable with, so that when you're in similar situations it's not so hard.
