Mostly hiding online :P
Never really found a good way to get over my shyness until i know people fairly well (case in point, will barely talk to people on my corridor in college, just because we don't see enough of each other for me to be comfortable around them, they're nice enough blokes). A little booze generally helps, but can sometimes just send me the other way.
The best way i found to speed up this process at college was to have a massive party at mine every so often and invite all the people I vaguely knew and wanted to get to know, so I could chat to them while mildly tipsy and in my own territory. Can't do that at uni though, and dislike clubbing, so still don't really know most of the year. (note, when I used college near the top I was referring to my university college, Oxford language gets confusing...)
