<human>: Provide a brief overview of the text.

There is this girl that sits in a chair every other morning outside of my classroom. By the way, this is college. I see her when I exit my class and she remains there for about an hour or so. I am not 100% sure she is shy, but she is quiet and does her own thing. I believe she is a freshman and I am a senior. I would really like to talk to her but I don't want to scare her or anything. 

There is a chair that is right next to her and I was thinking about asking her if its okay to sit right by her so she doesn't feel uncomfortable. Then, maybe a few minutes later I was thinking about opening with a compliment like about her hair, jacket, or whatever. Then, let her reply with thank you etc. and then wait a few minutes to let that sink in. After that I could ask her what is her next class, what homework she is doing, introduce myself and go from there. Hopefully I  can then say hi to her when I pass her and ask if she would lie to hangout, get her number or whatever. I just don't know if being a senior would make her worried. This was always the hard part in high school as well is how to determine what year in school someone is. 

 Another thing was to say I see you here everyday and I just wanted to say hi. I see you are alone and thought you might like someone to talk to. Maybe introduce myself. 

I just don't want her to think I am rude for saying she is "alone." Also my friend told me to say this, "I see you here everyday and I think you are really cute so I  just wanted to say hi."
So which plan should I go with or should I be go about it differently?
<bot>: Talking a girl I assume is shy for the first time. Do I open with a compliment, just walk up and say hi, or say hi and kinda flirt? Just don't want to blow this.
