If you freeze up, you can buy yourself a little time by doing a quick pre-frame, i.e. set up your next question with a little throwaway line like
"I don't wanna be weird or anything, but..." or "I know this might be kind of a random thing to say, but..."
Then you can do questions-as-statements to get info out of her in a more fun way than normal. For example, instead of "what are you working on?" you can say "I guess you've got some serious 20 page essay to write or something...but I bet if you open up you computer right now you're on facebook and gmail, right?" Then she might laugh and you can talk about procrastinating or something, or she might tell you what work she's doing, and you can say something like "oh you're one of THOSE girls" (can be used in almost any situation as a response to ANYTHING) or "you hang out in the library a lot...I can tell." Again, the point is you're making statements about her, which don't have to be right or wrong. They're just kind of teasing her a bit, getting her to tell you about herself, and making her wonder "why did he think I'm a library nerd?"
If you really can't think of anything, then still just try to continue the interaction. If a girl likes you, then you can get away with a bunch of interview style questions and you may hit upon something that generates a good conversation.
Thanks man, that helps alot. I'm always in situations like that, so I'll be sure to use those. I think the biggest thing for me is practice, the day game is much more intimidating. I've have had success with the ladies but it always involves alcohol. I gotta man up!
