I can see myself using that opener often so I want a proper translation.

Y, guapa, me miraste pero no saludaste?

I would use

Oye, linda, Pasaste sin ni siquiera decir hola ni nada..
Hey, querida, seguiste sin decir hola ni nada

Mekorig, I bet you would actually say, in Buenos Aires:

Me miraste y no me diste ni bola! Possibly adding, pendeja , or much classier, mi amor

You can maybe use it in Bogotá, but in Medellín people don't use it. Actually, we relate that word 'onda' to mexican spanish. Say, que onda men!?, but you can certainly use it, and it will not sound pretentious. Cheers mate.

The ni bola its classic argie. The mi amor is also good, but the pendeja, its a little too strong. You use it either if you have a great deal of familiarity, or if you want to insult the bitch.

I left Peru few days ago, with my Spanish at a conversational level.

I was banging a 9 on one of the last days and she kept repeating chinga me, chinga me, chinga me. This is how I learn.

Repetition is a key

I learned Spanish myself through chatting with various people during 2-3 years during university, the key like Vinny mentioned above is repetition.

Nowadays I speak fluently and most latin people always mention I have a good Spanish but that for some reason they say my accent is mexican ( I spent 1 month there in July last year). So the key is to at least talk to someone daily just to keep up the flow.

Remember, is chingame, basically fuck me. Chinga is fuck, like in Chinga tu madre! (fuck your mother!/fuck you!).
