Should be easy :p
In my first year of uni nobody knows anybody, so everyone's feeling a little guarded and apprehensive, but at the same time forcing themselves onto new people.
In my view try to be chatty as possible, maybe starting off with where you live and where you come from, and ease yourself into more interesting topics like games, interests and shit. Maybe try a couple of social groups that you're prob into, like gaming or animation, for a couple of weeks.
I'm in my 4th year at uni, and I live with 4 of my coursemates, one who's my girlfriend. It's easier and more useful in uni to meet people who'll you'll spend lots of time with.
Finally, ignore what I've wrote and don't take it to heart. Be yourself, but take it slowly.
