That's it, play it cool.
She sounds pretty interested, so just keep doing what you're doing. You don't want to spook her.

What if I ask after we are done studying if she wants to meet me later at a pizza place or something.

Remember, you have to ask question where yes and no are not logical answers.
You must name a specific invitiation with a couple of time options. See some of my previous posts for examples.
Also, going out to pizza is boring. Ask her to do something that is not boring.

I'm trying to work out whether getting this is a good idea or not.
http://www.waylandgames.co.uk/corvus-belli/infinity/angel-giraldez-masterclass-airbrush-bundle/prod_32048.html
Never having airbrushed before in my life...
However, I figure that an airbrush or something has got to be the only way I'm ever going to get my scenery painted in this century. - But, it seems odd that the compressor is only good for 30 minutes at a time?

Like what? I have no idea what to ask. Another place then? Like?
I was thinking of just asking her if she wants to join me tommorow at x, because I was gonna go there.

Just do the studying first and see how that goes. If you spontaneously decide to ask her if she fancies grabbing a bite afterwards, make it just that: Spontaneous.

Maybe something came up. It was just one time. I mean sometimes things happen whether traffic, appointments or personal issues. Just keep calm.

Sometimes it's just random luck too.
One first date I went on, we agreed to meet at a pub. I couldn't see her and chose to sit, instead of going out and phoning etc (the place had pretty bad phone reception and I didn't want to go outside and miss her or something).
It turns out that she had, apparently, gone into the lounge/bar of the hotel that was attached to the pub... As opposed to the actual pub itself. So she thought I stood her up.
On the other hand, we talked a little afterwards and I did get the sense she wasn't entirely balanced. So, possibly bullet dodged.

Just ask her in class the next time you get a chance. Maybe she got nervous. Maybe she's flaky and can't decide to do things? Who knows?

My partner in Stats said he already met the women he wants to marry. He is the same age.
I just, I 22, never had a date, never kissed a girl....never anything, what am I missing? is there something wrongg with me?

Neither have i and i'm 27. Keep going to school, make yourself presentable in looks and engage women calmly and normally. If they're interested they'll show it. They'll ask to study together or for help, they might smile around you or seem happy to see you around. On the other hand if they don't care too much they'll also probably show it. With time some of their opinions might change depending on your interaction with them.
I find science to be very helpful for socializing with women if only because you will do labs and have study partners. It's a very common thing and you will need to communicate with each other. Some classes are like that and some are very inward and not very socially expressive. Perhaps try to get a few friends in the class and use their moral support or help to meet women in there.
----------
Personally for me the reason why i haven't done much with women is lately i haven't been around them. Some of it is just that i suck with women at times. I find myself giving less of a sh*t about them though. More specifically i give less craps about gamer girls. I'm sure some get an ego when they're fewer in number. It's not like it makes them have quality as a person. So i dunno i guess i'll just go for somebody that's at least a decent person.
Another reason why i haven't gotten a woman is yes i am a bit nervous but i'm a little picky with my choices. I also want to make sure i'm very interested in the woman i date as i don't want to stay uninterested and break her heart. A lot of girls have broken my heart and what hurts worst is some didn't even care much. It sucks feeling disposable. That's why i may go for a girl more within my limits. I don't think i can get a 10 in every category girlfriend or even a 10 in looks without being terrible in every other category but maybe that's fine. I want to feel like i'm worth something to the person i like. Oh and i'd like to be attracted for sexual reasons obviously  .

Hey mate, remember I am 27, and I was basically in that same position a few weeks ago  . 22 is just a bit older than average, nothing to feel wrong about.
