00:00Sophomore year is gonna be our year.
00:02You can feel it.
00:03But we're not cool.
00:04We had a not-cool person wear one dangly earring.
00:08So we know this story is inspired by creator Mindy Kaling's life.
00:11How close is Devi's story to Mindy's story?
00:15There were times when she would be able to help me figure out Devi's character
00:19by explaining to me, like, what would happen in her life.
00:21But the stories of the characters are really relatable to people all over.
00:26I have chosen attainable, yet status-enhancing people for each of us today.

00:58You stalk each other's Venmo.
01:00Because I'm like-
01:01No, because you're-
01:02No, I don't stalk her Venmo.
01:03And you see all the people, like, oh, for food and for stuff like that.
01:06And then-
01:07Why are you stalking Venmo?
01:08Because I write very entertaining things on my Venmo.
01:10She writes very entertaining things on my Venmo.
01:12Um, one time I liked a guy and I don't know how I found out what kind of music he liked,
01:18but then I put his music on my iPod and I placed it on a table and he found my iPod
01:23and he was like, oh, who's this?
01:25We have the same taste in music and that's how we met.
01:28That's me.
01:29I love it.
01:30I love it.
01:31I love it.
