Are you crazy. Always text first. Calling is a high investment deal for her.
Imagine the awkward silence you'll have if she answers and she's busy and you have nothing to say to her or if she had buyers remorse from making out with you lol.
Always text first unless you built a super connection with her on your interaction.
A call should expect made after you've built enough connection with her via text or during first interaction.
And when you do get to the point where you are ready to ask her out, call her to do so not text.
When you call her to ask her out it shows confidence.
You don't have to take my word for it though. But that's what I do with success.
Your right on many points, especially that you should build enough connection before calling. Their are though more ways of looking at it.
You see, if you call and start talking to her one the phone, it not only demonstrates confidence on your end, but also establishes the deep connection someone has with another person over the phone.
Plus, talking can lead to a deeper connection because she has to focus on talking to you and only you, where as when she is texting/bbm, she could have her attention in multiple places...
However, since the OP is asking advice on texting, than advice on texting should be given. For the sake of it, keep it light and fun, and try and mention something that she will remember or recognize about you.
"Hey X, of all the girls I met last with the name X, you were definitely my favourite

Hope that helps,
