She looks to be of asian descent though and alot of asians at my college don't know english, so im worried that when i go up and talk to her or say: hi, she won' be able to understand me.

Do it! She probably speaks perfect English and IF that isn't the case, then I am sure that smiles and body language can be used in lieu of words to establish a common disposition. Don't be a turkey dude! It might work out well for you.

How ya doing, buddy?
