It's all about eye contact.
Tell me, what do you think of a person who won't look you in the eye? You think their either hiding something or very timid. When trying to pick up a girl, you don't want to be either of these.
1. Look her in the eye. Notice I don't say eyes, you can only look at one eye at a time. No switching back and forth, it'll make you look unconfident.
2. Say "hi" with a simple smile.
3. Wait for her "hi".
4. Initaite conversation. This can be about anything. If you're meeting her somewhere you have something in common because of your location. At the libraury, ask her about the books she has or is looking for, Grocery store ask her what she's picking up, Gym, how often she works out... you get the idea.
5. Don't let go of her eye and your smile untill the conversation is over.
6. Ask for either a venu change (ex. let's continue our conversation at xxxxx) or say something like "I have to go, but would like to keep talking to you sometime". She'll either give you her number, suggest a date, or ignore you.

The most important thing to remember is there's nothing to loose.
