How can I break the ice and be chill with new people?

So break is over and community college starts up again tommorow. I'm kind of looking forward to it, I feel like its time for me to meet new people and try to open up at least a little bit. I didn't date in high school or do any "yolo" stupid **** for the most part lol.

BQ: What do I say to break the ice or introduce myself?

BQ2: If its going ok or well with a girl I'm talking to, should I ask to grab a bite/coffee or get their number first? And how long should I wait :P

I normally don't ask stuff like this but I'm kinda psyched haha. Thanks for any tips

    To break the ice just ask what's up or talk about a topic in class with another student. With a girl ask for their number the first time you meet them after you're done having a conversation or else it's kinda awkward, however you can ask to go get something to eat while you're talking to them and make sure to pay for the girls food just out of kindness. Hope it helped.

    I'm rather shy myself, so I don't think I could give you good advice on the first question.

    The other one, I can however.

    If you ask a girl for her number without ever having gotten a chance to talk to her properly, it usually freaks her out. I myself have had my share of creepers who wouldn't leave me alone after giving them my number out of politeness. It is not good for either side.

    Try finding out if she likes something very much and if you have a common interest. Something like 'OMG, you like caramel mochas too? We should totally get some after class today'

    or 'Oh, you like King of thrones? How about we get together and watch some as reward after our first exam'

    Usually when you mention an exam, that gives her the impression that she is fighting through something with you as a fellow student being an alley. And who would reject celebratory ice cream after an exam?
