the easiest way to start a conversation with someone i don't know is to simply compliment them. "i love your hair" or "those are the cutest shoes. where did you get them?" everyone loves a compliment.
or you can start talking about how boring the class is or how they did on the last test.
another way to start an easy conversation is to ask someone about themselves. everyone loves tlaking about themselves. ask what other classes they're in. or if they're going to the basketball game tonight. or if they've seen a new movie, heard a new song, etc.
start with people you don't know at the mall or a store. if you mess up or get too nervous, it's okay. you'll never see them again, haha. once you get up the courage, try it with people you see more regularly.
the more inviting you are, the more people will want to approach you. try to have open body language. don't cross your arms or legs, and lean toward the person you're talking to.
good luck!

If you are seriously shy try faking it. Start small and pretend that you are someone else-like acting. Don't go overboard with it. just use it as a way to practice. You'll miss out on a lot of good stuff if you let your shyness rule you-just pretend that your'e not shy.

I think u should start attending more social events and go out more with friends.. being constantly around people will help u talk and open up

You will have to take more risks and that won't be easy. Try to talk to people you don't ordinarily talk to, but not when they're in a group. Talking to people on their own is much less daunting. Join new groups at school and even if you don't talk much in the beginning, you will gradually gain more confidence.
