Hi,
So I was taking the bus, the company bus at home from work. A girl, one that is working in the same campus as I am, was standing next to me. I could see that she wanted me to approach and when we get off the buss I said something, but not necessarily "approaching stile", and I just left. The second day in the campus at the cafeteria I saw she was looking at me (short looks). The question is now:
Should I initiate something (find her name and chat it out) because I kind fell like I need to. If I don't I will never know how or if something might happen. But this way, I chasing her...

Approach her. Initiating isn't chasing.

Chasing is when you invest more energy/time/emotions than the girl would. Before investing into an interaction, ask yourself: "would this girl do the same to further the interaction?"
If the answer is yes, then it's not chasing. She wants something to happen, and you're simply leading her to the mutual goal.
If the answer is no, then you're chasing. She either doesn't want something to happen (or she is indifferent), but you're putting in the effort in attempt to escalate the interaction with her. Here, you're not leading; you're pursuing.

She has given you approach invitations, so it's very likely a sign that she wants something to happen. Most girls won't initiate due to various social consequences (potentially appearing slutty or easy, embarrassment of possible rejection, etc). So it's your job, as the dominant man, to initiate and make shit happen.

May the force be with you
