Mindy Kaling Quotes About School

• Chicas adolescentes, por favor, no os preocupéis por ser superpopulares en el instituto, o por ser la mejor actriz del instituto, o la mejor atleta. No sólo a la gente no le importa nada de eso en cuanto te gradúas, sino que cuando te haces mayor, si haces demasiada referencia a tus éxitos en el instituto, en realidad das un poco pena, como un viejo personaje balbuceante de Tennessee Williams sin nada más en su vida actual. Lo que he observado es que casi nadie que haya sido una gran estrella en el instituto lo es también más adelante. Para nosotros, los chicos ignorados, es maravillosamente justo.

• The chorus of “Jack and Diane” is: Oh yeah, life goes on, long after the thrill of living is gone. Are you kidding me? The thrill of living was high school? Come on, Mr. Cougar Mellencamp. Get a life.

• Si le regalaba a mi madre una bufanda de punto, se preocuparía de que perdiera el tiempo haciendo cosas estúpidas como tejer en lugar de trabajar en el colegio. Regalar a mis padres un objeto de punto hecho en casa era, en realidad, como entregarles un detallado historial de mi holgazanería.

• In high school, I had fun in my academic clubs, watching movies with my girlfriends, learning Latin, having long, protracted, unrequited crushes on older guys who didn’t know me, and yes, hanging out with my family. I liked hanging out with my family! Later, when you’re grown up, you realize you never get to hang out with your family. You pretty much have only eighteen years to spend with them full time, and that’s it.

• Me siento afortunado porque era un empollón, de lo que hablo en el libro, pero tuve éxito académico, así que a través de eso, porque es a lo que mis padres daban mucho valor, tuve una gran infancia porque en cierto modo cumplí las expectativas de ser bueno en la escuela.

• No había una gran tradición de comedia en Dartmouth. Es más, no había nada artístico en Hanover, ni siquiera en New Hampshire. Lo bueno de la universidad es que no hay nada que la gente pueda ver, así que si hacías una obra de teatro, un sketch o un grupo de improvisación, siempre estaba lleno. No hay ningún otro sitio al que ir. Pero no había comedia.
