Hey. Yeah so I have some kind of issue and I was seeking some suggestions.
Alright, so I'm a 19 year old student that attends an art college in San Francisco. Let's just say life has been kind of "quiet" for me. I don't live at my college. I actually commute there. And most of my friends have moved elsewhere to attend their respective colleges. School is out for now, but the new semester starts in about a week for me.
Now...here's the thing I wanted some advice for. At first, I didn't even want to make a thread about this, thinking I could deal with it on my own, but I want to be sure. Okay, so there's this pretty Korean girl that was in a class of mine that I met about a year ago. She's 4 years older than me. I didn't talk to her that much when I met her, but during the middle of the semester a year ago we just talked every now and then. We had a conversation where I learned a little bit about what she's been doing, why she went to this college, etc. You know, just small talk.
So a year passed, and up until several days ago, I hadn't really heard from her or seen her around school. I was looking on my Facebook (a networking program that connects friends) and just out of curiosity, I looked to see who had the same birthday as me that attends my college. Strange, but she happened to have the same birthday as I do. So then I asked her to be my friend on Facebook and she accepted and we had a few nice conversations. Here they are:

Psssh...oh no, you're not insane or stupid. You're actually quite smart for wanting to get all of those classes out of the way. Hey nice to hear you went back to NYC. Hope you had a fun time. Yeah maybe we'll see each other around campus. Best of luck to you this semester!!!

So yeah, then I thought about maybe pursuing this in the hopes that something special might happen, but...then I thought that my "desperate" side was just speaking it's mind. Which is why I kind of closed the idea within the last comment I left. I mean, she's 23 and really pretty. I don't think she has a boyfriend, but who knows. And we're not really friends, just acquaintances. I'm planning to say hi to her on her birthday, our birthday I should say. But I'm not sure if I should just continue this or just keep things friendly. Honestly though, I think this is just a pathetic attempt by my inner self to try and get a pretty girlfriend or something. I just wish I could let things be. So anyone want to help me out?
