Oddest conversation with the handsomest girl. Interpretator needed.

Can anyone tell me if this is a good thing, or a bad thing?
For the past month, there's been this girl in my art history class at uni. She's by far one of the most intelligent in the class and looks like a young Mary Louise Parker.
We've caught each others glance and smiled once or twice, but never spoke despite 6 weeks of being in the same class.
Today, I ran into her on campus and we were walking towards the trams together. So I decided to say 'hey'. She said hey back, and we walk together, making small talk about assignments. Nothing special.
But then I realize I've left my books back in class. Rummaging through my bag, I mumble that I've left something behind and turn to leave.
But before I go, she suddenly blurts 'I really like your shirt. It's a favourite band of mine.'
I'm impressed and surprised. It's only a small local band without much of a following.
She then tell's me she saw them at the Red Rattler, which is a decent music venue close to where I live. It turns out we grew up in neighbouring suburbs and live in the same town.
We ended up talking about high school and I find out we both went to separate single sex schools for 'advanced kids'. For no apparent reason at all I said -
"well you must have been a high school a debater then, you just look like one.'
It was meant to be a half joke. I'm not even sure why I said it, but something about the way she spoke and held herself hinted that she was a high level public speaker. She's pretty eloquent in class discussion.
She gave me a really odd look, and even as I'm walking away she calls me back with - 'How did you know I was a debater? I only did it a few years in high school."
I shrugged, smiled and walked off.
It wasn't that I was trying to be mysterious or anything - it was just a total guess on my part. She gave me one final, very strange look.
So can someone explain what happened? Because I feel dazed as I type this on the tram home.

*********** UPDATE *****************************
A few weeks ago I asked a question about an encounter with a girl -
We had a mid-semester break and didn't have uni until last week. I ran into her as we were leaving our weekly class and asked how her break had been.
She ended up asking me to accompany her to a climate change debate which was running on campus at the time. We hung out for about an hour, just sitting and talking and not doing much. Her humour was dry and caustic in an endearing way.
I had to meet a friend so I left. She seemed a little surprised at my abrupt departure.
This week, I caught her after class. We ended up grabbing a quick coffee together. While waiting for a lift, we became so caught up in conversation that neither of us had pressed the up button for about 5 minutes.
Signs seemed to be good. Not only is she smart, she seems to really have her together.
I ended up walking her to her subway, where we once again stopped to talk in the middle of heavy thoroughfare. After several people ran into us, she said 'we really have to stop doing this.'
I told her I would be at the uni library studying on the weekend and if she'd like to come along.
She seemed really enthused about the idea and gave me her number. In fact, the last thing she said to me as she got on the train was - 'So Sunday, yes?'
I clicked my heels all the way home.
That was Wednesday. Today -friday- I thought I'd call her before I headed out to work (10am). It was to be a brief, concise call to tell her what time I would be at the library. But she didn't answer.
Anyway it's late into the evening now and no call back. Should I bother calling her again tomorrow (saturday)? Or should I just leave it be and let her call if she wants to?
She doesn't seem like the type of girl to play phone-tag.
Girl being cryptic. Female codebreakers needed for email.
For the past couple of weeks, I've been playing cat and mouse with a particular girl.
So far we’ve been on 3 spontaneous ‘mini-dates’ and one proper date.
The mini-dates may not even be counted as dates. We attend college at an inner-city art school so it was just window-shopping and coffee after class for an hour or two over the past 2-3 weeks.
So far, our only proper date was this Wednesday. She’s very reserved and poised. I should add that I’ve had several indicators of interest from this girl but she is tightly composed and difficult to read.
However, comfort began to escalate during that ‘proper’ date. We ended up going for a long walk. I never told her where we were going. She didn't ask or seem to mind.
However, for the next 2 weeks, she told me she will be swamped with exams.
After our date wed, she emailed me on Thursday with some exam notes. In the email she said - "my computer has the flu. If these files don't open then i can arrange some other way of getting them to you. like bound into a book."
Idiot that I am, I gave her a non-commital reply and since I'm also moving this weekend, I haven't spoken to her since.
In retrospect, I'm wondering if she is suggesting we meet up again soon, despite how busy she told me she was. Her joke about binding the notes was in reference to me teasing her about how she gets all her essays professionally bound before handing them in.
Or maybe it was just some throwaway line? I need a girls perspective on this since my logical guy mind says "she said she is busy. anything else she says is just confusing"
