auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
    wpa-ssid PUTYOURNETWORKNAMEHERE
    wpa-psk PUTYOURPASSWORDHERE

Btw, "wpa-psk" isn't your ssid' password, it's the text generated from:

wpa_passphrase SSID PASSWORD

network={
        ssid="SSID"
        #psk="PASSWORD"
        psk=c2161655c6ba444d8df94cbbf4e9c5c4c61fc37702b9c66ed37aee1545a5a333
}

Not sure which you used, but just encase, you used your wifi's password...
